???? ????? (s?m' k?ll) does not mean 'Kildin Sami' but just 'Sami language', cf. the same word in North Saami: sámegiella. Michael Rießler riessler@uni-leipzig.de

No, it does mean exactly that. Each Sámi language refers to its own language as "the Sámi language". Sámegiella in North Sámi refers to North Sámi and any other Sámi languages are referred to with other names. -Yupik 21:44, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
