its not true that the eskimos have more. it was a mistake made by a writer and he was quoted by another writer who was again quoted by another writer and later on, people have been saying that the eskimos (inuit language) have 30+ words for snow. there are even books that claim around 50 words but it's all a hoax.
the english have more.
