inniruvik ᐃᓐᓂᕈᕕᒃ
'(pl. inniruviit ᐃᓐᓂᕈᕖᑦ) A crack that opens and closes, but is not dangerous because the ice is not going anywhere. Like joints that open and close with the tides, occurs in tuva, and are places where the ice might break off in the spring.' (Sanikiluaq Siku Terminology Workshop, 2018)
