Disko-Bay. Here I give merely a few names although the 

 place-names are in reality just as numerous here as elsewhere 

 along the inhabited coasts. The bay itself has no special name, 

 but is merely called "the sea". The sea outside is spoken of 

 as "the real big sea". Dis ко Island is named Qeqertarssuaq 

 (the big island); Arveprinsens Eiland is called A/J.uittoq or 

 Appdt (the auks) after the colony of the same name which is 

 situated on its west coast.
