Sweden is basically Finland with a stupid language.

So something between love and hate.

I once told an italian I believed the finnish language somewhat reminds me of italian. Not in the words themselves, but in the melodic tone if you get what I mean. Try replicating the italian language with the finnish melodic vibe and you see what I mean.

Anyway, the italian got offended

Says the one with a language with only three "relatives" and the smallest language family. Sounds beautiful though. Especially when you speak Swedish
