Is anything known about the Dorset culture language of Greenland, who interacted with the vikings and preceded the Inuit? From loanwords, toponymy etc.?

Wikipedia says the Inuit call them Tuniit. Are there any words in Inuit that seem to be borrowed?

Or place-names in Greenland that aren't thought to be Inuit/Germanic?

The only explanation I seen that is that some climate change that caused mass starvation. Do we have any evidence about what kind of climate change took place? Is there any other hypothesis about the demise of Dorset culture?

TIL of the Sadlermiut, an Arctic tribe who were likely the last of the Dorset culture (elsewhere replaced by the Inuit/Eskimo). They didn't hunt whales, used inflated walrus skins as boats & spoke an unknown language. Western-brought illnesses wiped them out before much could be learned about them. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sad…

How sure are we that legends of the "Tuniit " actually indicate the survivance of information preserved since contact with the Dorset Culture preserved through Inuit oral tradition?

Might the Tuniit merely be some mythical folkloric people who just happen to present some elements which coincidentally resemble selected elements of Dorsettian culture, of be an amalgam of myth and memory?

SERIOUS: This subreddit needs to understand what a "dad joke" really means.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Dropped my best ever dad joke & no one was around to hear it

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies πŸ˜‚

These aren't dad jokes...

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

I did it, I finally did it. After 4 years and 92 days I went from being a father, to a dad.

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.

Daughter: I'm hungry

Me: nerves building, smile widening

Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.

She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.

Thank you all for listening.
