Hi, would you mind helping me learn about the state of Alaska? 
 Neat. Can you tell me what the word Alaska actually means? 
 Wow, twice the size? I appreciate all of this great information! Is there any chance you were able to find something out about the state symbols? 
 Ok, sure I would appreciate any fact you can give, 
 The name "Alaska" means "the mainland" or "the object towards which the action of the sea is directed"; comes from the Aleut word "alaxsaq".
