Abstract
Greenland’s international presence intertwines with its emerging status as an autonomous Arctic nation and with reconfigurations of the postcolonial identities of its people. In this article, I explore the positions and practices of English in Greenland in relation to two conditions of ambivalence: the ambivalence of English as both imperialistic and empowering, and the ambivalence that textures postcolonial Kalaallit-Danish relations. I consider how exploring the arguments, desires, and contestations of English, gathered through diverse empirical fragments, draws attention to the entanglements of multidirectional aspirations, diverse communities, new technologies, and altered geographies. The connections to English emerge in the everyday communicative practices of Greenland’s people and in the demands of organizations and industries. These connections are just as formidable as those stemming from political rhetoric and policies. I propose that the significance of English is in the making and conclude by outlining three areas of further collaborative research to follow this development for Kalaallisut, for Kalaallit-Danish relations, and for the production of new forms of equalities and inequalities.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
