"Eskimo" is a term that refers to two closely related Indigenous peoples—the Inuit and the Yupik—who inhabit Arctic and subarctic regions from eastern Siberia to Greenland and speak related languages. The term is considered controversial because it is an exonym (a name applied by outsiders) rather than a name these peoples chose for themselves, which is why many now prefer the names of their specific groups.

エスキモー（英語: Eskimo）は、北極圏のシベリア極東部・アラスカ・カナダ北部・グリーンランドに至るまでのツンドラ地帯に住む先住民族グループである。 彼らは元々狩猟採集生活者の暮らしを送っており、肉と魚だけを食べていたが、白人との交易が始まって小麦粉と砂糖を食べるようになってから、肥満や糖尿病を患うようになった。 カナダ政府とアメリカ合衆国政府により「保護するべき集団」と見なされ、パターナリスティックな扱いを受けている。
