- A region of the Earth above the Arctic Circle, containing the North Pole.

Usage notes
- Like Antarctic, this word was originally pronounced without /k/, but the spelling pronunciation has become the more common one. The "c" was originally added to the spelling for etymological reasons, and its pronunciation returned thereafter.
