'''{{SUBPAGENAME}}''' (''Qivattutannguáq'' /hivatːutaŋːuáχ/ or ''Qivattáa tannguáq'' /hivatːáː taŋːuáχ/; ''qivattúq'' is from {{recon|sebʰ-ntós}} 'of [our] own') is an Indo-European language inspired by Greenlandic, Old Persian and Proto-Celtic. 
 
Qivattutannguáq is a result of Indo-European being influenced by Inuit languages. It was spoken in Qivattulúnnun, which is located in our Great Britain.
 
It was divided into two registers, the high register Qunngartutannguáq ("perfected language") and the Estonian-like vernacular Prisinitutannguáq ("natural language"). Qunngartutannguáq is still used as a source of loans in modern British Isle languages such as [[Risened tangu]].
*In Prisinitutannguáq:
** "in X-language" = [STEM]-ut (for example: in English = ''Azalisút'')
** ''Prisinitút'' = in Prisinitutannguáq
** ''Qunngartút'' = in Qunggartutannguáq
** ''Inuisút, Inugisút'' = in Inuit
*inúgaq = Inuit person
*qivattúq = Hivatish person
*qaqartúq = narrow
*wiquq = virus (cognatization of Latin ''virus'')
**''kuruunaawiquq'' = coronavirus
*siiman = seed, children (related to German Keim)
*tiutaa = tribe; the people
*Tiuppateer = Qivattu counterpart of Zeus/Jupiter
*teewaq = god
*siuqit < *ǵews-eti = he tries
*suqtúq  (< *ǵews-tus) = attempt
*ímaq (m) = sea
*iqalugaq (m) = trout
*anuri (n) = storm
*iqariuq = red <- h₁ésh₂ṛ-yos
*talguq = long
*tuattúq (m) = trail <- duh₂-ntos
*arsattúq (m) = silver
*taiseet = he pinpoints, he locates
*ziimaa = winter
*wivuneet (wi-wonh1-eyeti) = he aspires
