P*rkele is one of the only words in finnish language thats a loan word from baltic languages. (Perkunas) So thats not any good example on "finnish language".
@@-Finlandia I know what im talking about indeed, its a loan word from "perkunas", and a word thats not so much used either. Perkunas in baltic languages means "satan". The words above -"s*atana" and v*ttu" are loan words as well - from "germanic" languages. For example in swedish "satan" and "f*tta". And finnish together with estonian belongs to "finnic language group" since even the "finnish-ugric" groups are apart.
Yes I like the fact that we can make stupid jokes of each other, and everyone knows it's joking 😂👍 It shows the closeness, a bit savageness is fun. Still all countries respect each other and have similar customs 😊
For those who are suprised by how harsly they can joke about one another I think it is important to understand that the bond between nordic countries today is very strong, more between some countries then others, due to a long shared history, the closeness in culture, language, social norms etc etc. It is sometimes almost like the bond between siblings who love eachother but still fight and pick on one another. If you google you can for example find long lists of norweigan jokes about swedes and vice versa. It's just fun and games and the humor we can have with one another! But I understand if it can sound harsh since not all nations have the same sort of bond to another/other countries and that it can be unfamiliar to some viewers. Edit: Thanks for all the likes! ❤😊
Yeah I agree (I'm from Finland). Like the one man said in the video, Sweden is like big sibling to Finland and we compete against each other all the time. We even have track and field competition Finland vs Sweden (Sweden always wins). So we kinda have that love hate relationship together like siblings do.
Yeah we are like a family. We are siblings that "hate" each other but would do anything and everything for each other if that was required. Sweden being the oldest and most normal/bland, Denmark being that weird twin of Norway who does things their way, Norway being the rich sibling who is way to happy and we others are secretly jealous and then we have Finland who feels like a step sibling who doesn't say much but we love Finland anyways.

Iceland is kinda the Nordic version of Australia. Most people who settled Iceland were sent there in exile because of crimes they committed in Denmark and Norway mostly.
@@MachivelianBear Well, not necessarily "sent" as much as outlawed on the mainland, and then sailing far enough away that no one would bother going after them.
Benjamin Christensen no man! You've got it all wrong. The nature! Norway has all the fjords and mountains and forests and Finland's got a thousand lakes! And so much snow, that's real winter. Also Iceland have beautiful nature, volcano landscape! The finnish language is epic and sounds so interesting. Norwegians colonized Iceland and they were the true vikings!:) the swedes always think they are the best at everything, so utterly smug, but they are losing their true swedish culture. Danmark is ok but nothing more. The most boring nordic country but I like the language a bit.
This is how I imagine the Nordic countries if they were one big family. Iceland: The long time separated sibling that finally got in touch Norway: The rich laidback younger brother Sweeden: The gay older brother, who parties a lot and is slightly snobby Denmark: The perfect sweet and lovely younger sister Finland: The funny uncle who drinks way to much alcohol, but still remains chill and nice
After visiting Finland, I must say that it is probably the Finnish people who differs mostly among each Nordic Nation in terms of personality characteristics. That is why I like them much: they are special, like came from another planet or at least from The Lord of the Rings as elf like creatures:)
@@emilwahlroos5570 From the same planet where we speak Finno-Ugric languages, ie. Hungary. But seriously, although it is clearly a generalization, I' have noticed some fairly specific personality traits when I was there. I'm talking about, of course, the famous introvertedness of Finnish people - which, I emphasize, is a prejudice - but seems to me actually true for some level. And this is indeed a thing which I can sympathize with, because nowadays everything is about being loud, extroverted, communicative, etc, but they are not. And I like it.
@@Tranitosaur It's a theory, a part of it actually makes a certain amount of sense in that There has been more Swords found in Finland than Denmark most likely meaning Finns made alot of swords, weapons tools ect. Vikings didnt really fight Finns, they were very symbiotic with them, the only raids they did were failures and they chose to do trade as at the time Finns crafted the best swords. Blacksmiths and similiar crafts have a very Mythological and Divine position in Finnish mythology and likely was a part of how Finnish people were seen at the time along with being wizards and shamans.
@@pyromorph6540 yep, Vikings were also scared of Finns, they thought that Finnish women can cast spells and make ships sink. There were couple of battles, where only few Vikings survived alive even though Finns were outnumbered. This “troll “ thing is interesting. At least swedes used (probably still do) think that Finnish people are darn ugly and they called us mongols etc. They also measured our features (like they did to Jews in Germany) to make sense why these people look so different. This was of course later in the 19th century. So in you Scandinavian eyes we might look trolls,but at least Tolkien saw some beauty in Finns and Finnish language when he wrote the lord of the rings.

I am a Norwegian living in London and I took an English friend of mine to a Scandinavian shop to show her some stuff.

It's funny because sometimes in the Lord of the rings thrilogy movies when elfs or orcs are talking I sometimes kinda almost understand what they are saying.
Jean Luk Pretty much every European culture has cretures like elfs in their mythology. Nevertheless tolkien was big fan of nordic and germanic mythology. However the language of elves is based of Finnish and Latin. Dwarves he shaped after jews and their language is based on hebrew (which is rather obvious). The language spoken by rohirim is based purely on germanic languages. The black speach is apparently based on some ancient mesopotamian language like hurrian.
Norway.. young women knitting.. you don't see that anywhere else so much as there Sweden.. arrogance and Nordic kind of similar stupid liberality and polite-correctness as in America. Other Nordics do it better Denmark.. my experience.. they are mostly polite.. more than other Nords.. chill and care more about environment (both natural and artificial) around them than rest of us Iceland.. most realistic of the bunch and still having great fun Finland..

I'd be very surprised if they didn't have a lot of beef with each other. And you'd also be opening up whole cans of worms about whether or not to include culturally, and possibly ethnically distinct regions, like the Occitan, the Catalonians, the Galicians, and fringe regions, like the Maltese, whether or not to include the Walloons as a distinct entity from the other French, whether to include ecclesiastical Latin, etc etc etc...
@Tina Yael Severinovna M. Yup! I'm sure! And that's not even taking into account the Venetian independence movement in Italy. Or the North Italian breakaway wish. You go to Spain, and it's the Catalonian region, who are Romance language speakers, and the Basque, who aren't, but are more European than any other Europeans. But their border crossed over to France, the way the Kurds of the Middle East crosses Turkey, Iran, Iraq and Syria, and are now in deep .. . merda now that Trump pulled the US troops out of the region, but that's by the by. The Galicians of Spain might have more in common with Portugal. And France has plenty of subregions: Brittany, Occitan, plenty more I'm less familiar with, all proud of their distinctiveness. And then you've got the Swiss French, the Belgian Walloons. And then you might want to include the people from Québec in Canada. And then you've got the French overseas territories and the Alliance Francaise, in Africa, the Caribbean, etc etc etc. It'll be a massive headache.
@Tina Yael Severinovna M. Yeah, it'll be like at least a half hour video to just get everyone to comment on everyone else once. Unless you change it to what the Romance language countries think about each other. Then, you'd just get Italians, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and the often forgotten Romanians. Would you include the other minority regional dialects? Probably not.

For those who are suprised by how harsly they can joke about one another I think it is important to understand that the bond between nordic countries today is very strong, more between some countries then others, due to a long shared history, the closeness in culture, language, social norms etc etc. It is sometimes almost like the bond between siblings who love eachother but still fight and pick on one another. If you google you can for example find long lists of norweigan jokes about swedes and vice versa. It's just fun and games and the humor we can have with one another!

After visiting Finland, I must say that it is probably the Finnish people who differs mostly among each Nordic Nation in terms of personality characteristics. That is why I like them much: they are special, like came from another planet or at least from The Lord of the Rings as elf like creatures:)
@@emilwahlroos5570 From the same planet where we speak Finno-Ugric languages, ie. Hungary. But seriously, although it is clearly a generalization, I' have noticed some fairly specific personality traits when I was there. I'm talking about, of course, the famous introvertedness of Finnish people - which, I emphasize, is a prejudice - but seems to me actually true for some level. And this is indeed a thing which I can sympathize with, because nowadays everything is about being loud, extroverted, communicative, etc, but they are not. And I like it.
Actually finns were the basis for trolls in swedish folklore.
@@vanyadolly Wait really wtf? Coming from a curious Norwegian
@@Tranitosaur It's a theory, a part of it actually makes a certain amount of sense in that There has been more Swords found in Finland than Denmark most likely meaning Finns made alot of swords, weapons tools ect. Vikings didnt really fight Finns, they were very symbiotic with them, the only raids they did were failures and they chose to do trade as at the time Finns crafted the best swords. Blacksmiths and similiar crafts have a very Mythological and Divine position in Finnish mythology and likely was a part of how Finnish people were seen at the time along with being wizards and shamans.
@@pyromorph6540 yep, Vikings were also scared of Finns, they thought that Finnish women can cast spells and make ships sink. There were couple of battles, where only few Vikings survived alive even though Finns were outnumbered.
This “troll “ thing is interesting. At least swedes used (probably still do) think that Finnish people are darn ugly and they called us mongols etc. They also measured our features (like they did to Jews in Germany) to make sense why these people look so different. This was of course later in the 19th century.
So in you Scandinavian eyes we might look trolls,but at least Tolkien saw some beauty in Finns and Finnish language when he wrote the lord of the rings.

Elves are from germanic mythology, there is even a german song from the middle ages about elves. The song is called "Von den Elben".
Jean Luk Pretty much every European culture has cretures like elfs in their mythology. Nevertheless tolkien was big fan of nordic and germanic mythology. However the language of elves is based of Finnish and Latin. Dwarves he shaped after jews and their language is based on hebrew (which is rather obvious). The language spoken by rohirim is based purely on germanic languages. The black speach is apparently based on some ancient mesopotamian language like hurrian.

I'd be very surprised if they didn't have a lot of beef with each other. And you'd also be opening up whole cans of worms about whether or not to include culturally, and possibly ethnically distinct regions, like the Occitan, the Catalonians, the Galicians, and fringe regions, like the Maltese, whether or not to include the Walloons as a distinct entity from the other French, whether to include ecclesiastical Latin, etc etc etc...
@Tina Yael Severinovna M. Yup! I'm sure! And that's not even taking into account the Venetian independence movement in Italy. Or the North Italian breakaway wish.
You go to Spain, and it's the Catalonian region, who are Romance language speakers, and the Basque, who aren't, but are more European than any other Europeans. But their border crossed over to France, the way the Kurds of the Middle East crosses Turkey, Iran, Iraq and Syria, and are now in deep ..
. merda now that Trump pulled the US troops out of the region, but that's by the by.
The Galicians of Spain might have more in common with Portugal. And France has plenty of subregions: Brittany, Occitan, plenty more I'm less familiar with, all proud of their distinctiveness. And then you've got the Swiss French, the Belgian Walloons. And then you might want to include the people from Québec in Canada.
And then you've got the French overseas territories and the Alliance Francaise, in Africa, the Caribbean, etc etc etc.
It'll be a massive headache.
@Tina Yael Severinovna M. Yeah, it'll be like at least a half hour video to just get everyone to comment on everyone else once.
Unless you change it to what the Romance language countries think about each other. Then, you'd just get Italians, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and the often forgotten Romanians. Would you include the other minority regional dialects? Probably not.

Swede: "We are the older sibling so we have to take care of them"
Sure took good care of us during WW2 :D
I mean they took our kids and some of them didn't come back
I mean.. We did. We would've done more if the goverment of the time weren't such assholes. Finlands sak är vår as the saying goes.
Finlandssvenska ahahah
STARB0YY Ja 🙌
Sold us too big artillery shells :D
In Portugal we also love having our coffee with a pastry (usually a pastel de nata).. and cherish this time, we just dont have a name for it, as the Swedish do.
I love Pastel de nata - from Iceland btw.
and the dutchies have their time and word for "doing nothing"
In Brazil too lol
Mas nós demoramos meia hora. Eles demoram a tarde inteira
This type of video with latin european countries ( France , Spain, Italy, Portugal ) can be great to do also !
I love my fellow Nordic countries so much ❤️ One time I was in Portugal and randomly bumped into a Norwegian lady and it felt like I had just met up with a neighbor or an old friend lmao.
With love,
🇫🇮
You visited Portugal....you amazing! People were humble and kind?
@@KaiserWilbur We’re both. Our language is Finno-Ugric but both geographically and culturally we’re Nordic.
@@IL-bq1eo you are so different than other Nordics though , similar to Estonians
@@KaiserWilbur Finno-Ugrics isn't really a meaningful concept as anything other than a language family (and even that classification is actually quite controversial). The Finns are genetically and culturally the result of Uralic, Germanic, and Baltic peoples mixing together. Culturally, Finland is far closer to the other Nordics than any others, and our closest genetic neighbors are the Estonians and Swedes.
@@Србомбоница86 As a Norwegian Sami I love all about Finland, and the Finnish are definitely Nordic. The Sami have more than 90% genetics in common with the Norwegians, and the Sami language is related to Finnish. I would say the Sami ties Norway and Finland together.
Nordic countries=
Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Iceland.
Baltic countries=
Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania
Scandinavians=
Swedes, danes and norwegians
Urals=
Finns and Estonians
Balts=
Latvians and Lithuanians.
Finns and Estonians are not urals, were finnic.
The Unusual Dispenser Finnic is a subgroup of Uralic...
The Unusual Dispenser Also, maybe something like Estic would be even better, considering Finnic people (Baltic Finns) first populated the Estonian side and only later small groups started crossing over and populating Finland...
There is more finno ugrics than Fins and estonians
Today I learned something
As a Dane, I think Norwegian sounds like my doctors handwriting.
As a Norwegian, Danish sounds like my DRUNK doctor's handwriting.
Is it also a Nordic thing for doctors to have bad handwriting? I've heard that as an American, but wasn't aware that the idea existed elsewhere.
@@tripcode1722
In Algeria too, Doctors handwriting is the worst ever.
@@tripcode1722 in India too
We always make fun of doctors handwriting
only persons from medical Store can understand doctor handwriting 😂

I am already imagining the craziest things people will say about one another
yes and one of eastern european countries too
Well, this channel made a few of those videos but they ended with a war each time.

Swede : shy and insecure

Finland: doesn’t exist because it’s a part of sweden
Love the Icelandic humility, laid back attitude and accent.
Sheesh, and I thought Middle Europeans (especially France, Germany, Switzerland and Austria - since those often mock each other) were harsh with their jokes, but apparently the Nordics take it up a notch :'D Well, as long as it's all in good fun, I don't see the harm
I think the worst i heard recently was “Fight alcoholism in Denmark, help a Swede find his way to the bridge.”
I died when that guy said 'Inbred' omfg
@hkistreet I know!!! It was just funny to hear him say that lol
@hkistreet The app wasn't created for that though.
@@Starkardur ...and this is how I find out my Icelandic friends lied to me.
@@saaraa7876 Íslendingabók - the app they are talking about wasn't even an app in the first place but a database created by DeCode which was a biotechnology company. It was attempting to create the genealogy of all Icelanders and Icelanders were, therefore, able to track their ancestry by using it.
@hkistreet Yeah, it's really cool. I found out that my crush is like my fifth cousin so that's great
I'm from Sweden and i've always loved all our nordic countries, thought most my countrymen did the same, I love you all either way for all that's worth.
Where my Nordic brothers and sisters at? Dane here 🇩🇰😁🤘🏼
jeg er også dansk

Good luck with that. Our language is notoriously difficult.

No, but seriously Hungarian is easily in the list of top 5 hardest languages, if not it certainly deserves to be.

Come learn Estonian ;) Similar, brother language yet simpler to learn ;)
Aww come on, Finland gets so much credit and cool stuff, and we're like that younger brother! xD

Stays on same note.
Do you know what's the song?
Sandstorm by Daswede
Just kidding i don't know
@@fanis7891 Its called "helan går"
Swedish people not talking about IT and technology.
Danes not drunk enough.
Norwegians not talking enough about mountains.
Icelandic people not making weird music.
Faroese people
Finns without knife.
What? There are more knife attacks in whole of Malmö in a year than in whole Finland. Check your facts.
@@ThaV1c I think recent 'immigrants' to the city have caused a spike in the crime rate that wasn't there before.

Jo Ou Finns in sweden is known for commiting knifecrime, atleast back in the day.

Jo Ou Haha yes i know thats not news. Just gave you an explenation to your comment. And dont worry, we will never die.
Btw you still learning swedish in Scholes in Finland?
Haha good stuff guys! So much love for my Nordic neighbors!
And Finland needs Sandstorm as their national anthem!
Petition to make Sandstorm the national anthem indeed.
@@sayitinswedish at least we have a national anthem.
@@ironicmanx9886?
Pertti Man ?
Love how Aleksi happened to have a bag of salmiakki with him. 😂 Proved the statement that Finns love it.
I miss Finland so much. I hope I can visit all the Nordics someday, but Finland has a piece of my heart. 🇫🇮 Rakkaus Kanadasta, Suomi! 💙
We love you guys too, from Finland 🇨🇦❤️🇫🇮
Canada is my favourite country. Nice to hear that we have the liking of a canadian :)
Ask Finnish about Sweden and there is a chance that they say "Gay"
and finnish people are just swedish people who took Sami culture and tradition
as there own
@@tankvinl9805 Haha, you're way off, way off... culture is pretty Swedish in the roots due to history but we're a different breed. Okay modern Finns are a mix of many but ancestor Finno-Ugric tribes hold the area from Northern Sweden to Ural mountains... you can see it from Y-DNA maps.
@@HeilAmarth finns aren't closely related to Sami people,autosomally. Of all population, finns are closet to estonians followed by swedes
@@tankvinl9805 Finns are genetically some of the least mixed people in Europe... Sweden is way more mixed than Finland, so your comment about Finns really being "Swedes" makes no sense.
@@tankvinl9805 Also we never took Sami culture as our own, what the hell are you talking about??
Of the first three guys, the one to the right is the one who looks most finnish.
His name is finnish too
@@Ritaaw1 Really?
Knightonagreyhorse yeah, Kalle is a finnish name
Maybe he's Sámi 🤷♀️
Mie SB Sami people have different names to finns. Theres a lot of finnish people that have moved to Norway, for example the Forest FinnsZ
Finland is an awesome country! I have been there for like a month and a half and they are so nice but a bit shy in the beginning so they are kinda like a nordic version of Canada actually. Having tried a true finnish sauna experience this summer was something i´ll never forget. Just a long way to go when you´re from Denmark. Much easier to visit the norwegians and swedes.
I really like the passive-aggressiveness between them
Yea and this has mild traits of sarcasm.
I'm not Finnish, I'm not Nordic, and I ADORE SALMIAKKI with all my existence. 💙
Salmiakki tastes so weird though! At least sisu grows on you as you eat it....
We take pleasure in a little bit demanding and harsh pleasures. Salmiakki, metal and ice hockey. To like that shit you gotta grow some character on you. This is how you survive through the rough winter and wars with near-impossible odds though. Cheers, be well.
0range Chuize Tara isn't even a finnish name idk what you're talking about
I once brought some salmiakki infused "vodka" (salmiakki koskenkorva "salmari" ) with me from Finland to have with my Belgian friends and they thought I was trying to poisson them that's how much they hated it lol.
Good tip if you are going to have salmari but it's your first time I recommend having it ice cold in a shot glass with lakka laponia liqueur (clowdberry liqueur) they are the perfect match, one is super sweet and dreamy the other is salty and refreshing.
Amazing, I´m half Finnish and half Spanish and i hate it
I like how honest they are. Like they don’t care about being politically correct and nobody seems to get super offended, which is so uncommon nowadays.
Hugs and Kisses from the Philippines.. I love Nordic Countries. 🥰😍😘
Finns: the most tough ones. Hard working and effective.
Swedes: conflict shy, obedient. has some hobby they take refuge into.
Danes: freethinkers, outspoken. Industrious.
Norwegians: spoiled, rich. The great outdoors.
Islanders: tough negotiators, us marine base.
(I’m a norwegian)
Very true, I am Danish.
perkele
I died laughing when he tried to imitate norwegian language. I'm not even norwegian (finn :p) but IT SOUNDS EXACTLY LIKE THAT.
I’m Swedish and love my country. I love Iceland as well. One of my favorite places.
I love that meeting anyone from the Nordic countries, you are like a long lost friend.
So proud to be Swedish
Good to hear. Unfortunately Sweden is slowly losing its Swedishness.
@@pangaea5258 tyvärr ja, fyfan
@@pangaea5258 wait how? Why
@@serenitybeats1677 Ever been to Malmö? That's what all of Sweden is going to look like in a few years. I'm talking about multiculturalism, of course.
This comment section is worthy of the animosity normally reserved for a comment section to any Balkan-related video.
Thanks. We take pride in our dysfunctional family much like the balkans
The girl from Iceland brings smile on my face every time she is on camera ☺️
Yup, she smiles and your hurt gets warm. She's got natural beauty and a perfect smile ofcourse.
I would enjoy additional videos like this one. A couple ideas: Slavic countries, Francophile countries. Be careful though. You might dig up feelings of resentment (ex: Japan/China/Korea).
Yeah! And they could say one sentence in all those languages, so we could hear the diffrences.
Cool idea but don't touch middle east lol.
@@iraniandude2899 I can't remember the name of the cannel. But I think the show was called middle ground. And they actually had some young Israelis and Palestenians on there, answering questions. (That one Israeli guy mad me so angry though, but it was refreshing hearing both sides of their story). Would love for them to also have a Sunni/Shia video, as I don't really know the difference.
Don't forget the Dutch and the Belgians . We used to own Belgium of course but they don't want to know (Ooops sorry guys , there I go again ! They are nice , no really !)
They need subtitles, couldn’t understand some of the words due to their accent.
Also, please leave the text questions up for a second longer, it’s too quick to read.
Yeah I had to pause it most of the time, and I'm a fast reader. 😬
I love how when they think of Metal and Finland they start singing Lordi. One of my favorite bands. I guess they're more popular than I thought.
That song is one of my favourite Eurovision winners of all time!
OMG...my Norwegian (American) grandmother used to say to my brother and I the Danish people speak like they have a hot potato in their mouth...in Norwegian! I can still hear her saying it in my head... LMAO!!! RIP grandma... that was for you!
Nothing original here. It's what everybody says
@@sofitocyn100It goes to show that this has been 'true' for many years in many generations for scandinavian people , not just something said once in this youtube video.
You should hear how Norwegian sounds to our ears mate. Norwegian isnt exactly an eloquent to say the least. You act as though Norwegian was equivalent to Italian - Get off your high horse.
Foreigners usually prefer the Danish standard "Jyske" dialect because it's very monotone compared to Swedish or Norwegian. Aside from the words that end with a "soft D" (😂) like sød (sweet) and ned (down). These words would end with a "T sound" in Norwegian or Swedish.
@@jens1567 Our "ned" doesn't end with a t sound? I'm confused, what do you mean? "Sød" or "søt" in Norway does indeed end with a t.
Italians, just like Swedish people, like their fica, but it's a totally different thing..... ihihihihihihihihih.
😂
This reminds me of that joke that Chinese, Japanese, Koreans hate each other.
I know Swedes are really salty about Norway's oil reserves.
Eh...not hate, more like annoying neighbour of eachother. Add vietnam, myanmar,phillipines and laos to the mix, you got bunch of mean girls againts the south east asian😂😂
Swedes think they're 50 years ahead of us, but that was 50 years ago ;). Except for central Stockholm, I, coming from Oslo find most of Sweden (except sthlm) behind us, and also I find many areas have ugly or old buildings, like 60s or 70s style boring ones. Their roads are overall better though, but that's like the ONLY thing (in my opinion). And they maybe have more industry, but it seems we're better at making good business, lots of money, for little work LOL :)
Dont get me started LOL! It was a mistake to let Norway go (they left the union our countries shared between *1814-1905* ) Would have done miracles for the Swedish economy!
It is actually little bit different
@@GoldenOrder Because the Chinese, Japanese and Koreans kind of do hate eachother.
Do one about Latin American people (probably will end in a cartel fight but will be fun)
Uhm About Dominicans, Puerto Ricans and Cubans, the closest friends in Latin America, I'd say.
