      Most places, actually. I've never encounter a place where one couldn't have been sad. I've been happy on one occasion: Sweden, 1995. Finland had just won and, for five minutes, I wasn't sad. Then I remembered that I was in Sweden and became very sad.

But I can assure you that there aren't a single swedish speaker living in Helsinki who cannot speak finnish. Some of my good friends that I didn't know, are swedish speakers. So they usually speak swedish among themselves or they speak mixed finn-swede-language only they understand.

      It can be measured: Finnish is one of the most 'vowelfull' languages.
      There are not even many consonants to choose from.
      Maybe some Danes have mixed it with Russian :)
      We're neighbours with them, but it's hard for the languages to be more different.
      Here's an example of Finnish, a Wikipedia introduction about Danmark.
      Tanskan kuningaskunta (tansk. Kongeriget Danmark) eli Tanska (tansk. Danmark) on perustuslaillinen monarkia Pohjois-Euroopassa. Sillä on vain yksi rajanaapuri, maan eteläpuolella sijaitseva Saksa, mutta Ruotsista sen erottaa vain kapea Juutinrauman salmi. Norja sijaitsee Skagerrakin salmen takana maan pohjoispuolella. Tanska on 43 094 neliökilometrin laajuinen, joten se on pinta-alaltaan selvästi pienin Pohjoismaa, jos Grönlantia ei lasketa sen pinta-alaan. Tanskassa asuu noin viisi ja puoli miljoonaa asukasta ja sen pääkaupunki on Kööpenhamina.

  • @Toby_Jensen
    @Toby_Jensen 4 роки тому +6

    Actually there is a logic behind the numbers system in Denmark:
    Halvtreds (50) = Halvtre snese = Halfthree twenties
    Tres (60) = Tre snese = three twenties
    Halvfjerds (70) = Halvfire snese = Halffour twenties
    Firs (80) = Fire snese = Four twenties
    "Halvfems" (90) = halvfem snese = halffive twenty
    So it is a contracted way of saying the numbers. In Denmark "halvanden" = "Half two" means 1.5 and "half five" is 4.5. This means that "Halvfems"= 4.5 twenties=90.
    Today "snese" is replaced by "tyve" for 20, but it has remained in use for 50-90.

      So what is snese? 20? Tyve? I understand "tres" being three tyves etc. I wonder if I should start business with danes or keep far away from you. ;)
      And they say Finnish is difficult...
      10 = Kymmenen
      20 kaksikymmentä (two tens (ten in partitive form, which is form of plural in Finnish)
      30 kolmekymmentä (three tens, etc...)
      40 neljäkymmentä
      50 viisikymmentä
      60 kuusikymmentä
      70 seitsemänkymmentä
      80 kahdeksankymmentä
      90 yhdeksänkymmentä

    • @Toby_Jensen
      @Toby_Jensen 3 роки тому +1

      Snese is an old way of saying 20, yes. No one uses it today even though it is perfectly all right to do so. Just like dusin=12 isn't in use any more.

      Finnish and Eesti keel are very similar, my theory is that some of the finno-ugric people went there.
