English term or phrase: Olga Arsamquk

I need to know how to pronounce the name of this Alaskan Orthodox Saint. \\\'Olga\\\' is fine, but \\\'Arsamquk\\\' is a problem. Any attempts at transcription/transliteration would be much appreciated! The galling thing is that she is a Russian Orthodox saint and is called \\\'matushka\\\' etc., but her name must be Eskimo and I need to give it in Russian and I don\\\'t know how. I have posted this question in the English-English pair as well in case somebody knows what it sounds like in Eskimo.

Here is a reference in case it helps: http://rejoyse.com/BlsdOlgaHome.html (homepage)

... and the name \\\'Arsamquk\\\' is mentioned here: http://rejoyse.com/HelperInRestoring.html

Yakov Tomara: Наверное так: как бы оно ни звучало по-эскимосски, на русском оно должно передаваться по правилам транслитерации

-> Да, спасибо, Yakov Tomara! Буква "q" отдельно в английском употребляется редко, и тот звук, который ей передаётся - из иностранных имён собственных, в русском произносится и читается как "к". Пример - индусские и мусульманские слова.

agree

Anton Agafonov: опять же, и у индейцев также ;-)

-> Да, спасибо, Anton Agafonov, как я мог забыть соседей эскимосов!
