man, don't be mad at me but you are very lucky to live in Teemu Selänne's country. let me tell you something, you are ignorant with this title. I am from Romania, a country where 200,000 children go to bed hungry, patients in hospitals for nervous diseases are kept tied to their beds, old people in nursing homes beg for food from the fences and others who eat their clothes from hunger, in villages there are families who sell their children to Westerners, people taken by force and turned into slaves to work for local mafias. students who die with ceilings collapsed on them, others die drowning in outdoor toilets are with rotten wood, in small towns there are parents who even sell their clothes on the streets so that their children don't stay hungry at home, I mean those who can't find work, pensioners who cry in the markets for the mercy of a piece of meat for a better soup, just today I bought 3 bananas from an old woman and I cried along with her because she wanted some meat instead of bananas. Obviously, I went back and with the last money I bought her 1.5 kg of chicken legs. many of these old people with small pensions stay in the cold in the winter because they don't have money to heat the house, then what the hell are you talking about. Finland is a civilized country and you should be proud of it. ps Canada-Finland is 2-2 after the first half and 22 min. go Finland

Does Finland grade the homework?? In America, a lot of the time, the work you bring home you have to bring back for a grade. 😭 Not doing it can bring your grade down a good chunk…cause usually it counted as like, 15% of our grade.

"Sininen" is a loanword which is a cognate of "cyan". AFAIK there are only 4 true cases in Finnish, the rest just replace the prepositions since Finnish is agglutinative.

I have just had the worst experience buying a home in Finland. We bought a home, offered asking price because the home checked all my boxes. Turns out the house had water damage that was not disclosed. The house stinks and has mold. This was not noticeable in winter, but come spring time and the snow melted, the walls were clearly wet. The seller was a company and the seller threatened to go bankrupt if we do not accept losing 10k euros for him to buy it back. Don't buy an old home here. Advice that is missing here is get a technical report before closing the deal and don't buy in the winter.

@@AleksiHimself yes a detached home. We had a Finnish acquaintance do an inspection and that was a mistake. We relied on him to get a pursue the technical inspection and his advice, was it was a fine house. He was wrong. People make mistakes. The inspection was off the record, the flaws that appeared in the spring were dormant in winter. We have a lawyer now and tons of expenses piling up, based on that we are not seeking justice, we just want to get rid of the house as soon as possible so we can go back to our regular broke life. YAY!

My mother's side is Finn, my father's Italian. I lived with my Finnish grampa (love you gramps.) I would talk all day and he would pantomime interest. There were times he would get all excited about something and the mask would slip 😆 🤣 Finns in Finland are seemingly another extremely introverted country.

As my last comment on this topic (I've commented enough) is to say that what sets Finns apart from the Scandinavians, especially the Swedes and Norwegians, is our tendency not to be so politically correct in informal settings. We can engage in pretty rough humor, and we are not so risk-averse when discussing the potential impacts of mass immigration on a country, even though this is increasingly made taboo by our mass media. So, what sets us apart is that we're not so cautious and afraid to speak about subjects that can be completely taboo, for example, in Sweden. The downside of this, however, is that we can also see pretty open racism in our internet comments. But as long as people keep their heads on their shoulders, they understand that the racist comments represent but a small portion of people who are terminally online.

Again, YLE (Finnish Broadcasting Company) is wrong. There is this prevalent notion in Finland about the Second World War. We like to think that everything about Finland is defined by the Second World War, as we supposedly endured such trauma from the whole event. This is, of course, preposterous, as the whole of Europe has experienced wars that we can only have nightmares about. Russia also likes to attribute all its misbehaviors to war traumas. But no, we are not solely the product of WWII; we had it bad, as did many others. It's lazy for a Finn to claim that some or all of our "national peculiarities" stem from WWII; they don't, and many of our quirks aren't quirks at all, just common Northern European cultural traits.

Again, I have to disagree; it's not religion that we don't talk about, at least in my experience, it's money. I have never heard even the highest earners say what they make or how much they are worth. Seriously, I've had debates over religion with people about their beliefs and my non-beliefs. But money never gets discussed, even when it's apparent that the other person is very well off. And I think that's a very good thing.

Why do we sit alone, searching for seats that are not taken at all? I mean, why would you seat yourself beside a stranger if other seats are available? I'm really asking. This is not a Finnish trait at all; it's just common sense. However, I have no problem sitting next to someone if all the double seats are each already taken by one person. Like, why wouldn't I then sit next to someone? I don't get why this, which is a very common trait among people, has to be turned into a "Finnish quirk." I mean, if you go onto a bus, would you choose the seat next to someone if the whole bus is otherwise empty? Now, why would you do this if the bus has only 6 passengers? 16? 20? Why wouldn't you try to find a double seat that is completely unoccupied?

I'm here to offer an insightful comment, one that you must take to heart. Finland is a highly conflict-avoidant culture. Because of this, we are not as "honest and straightforward" as we like to perceive ourselves. If you behave in a way that Finns around you consider improper, you’ll likely be given a pass initially. However, if you continue to behave in a way that the majority disapproves of, you will never be directly told, "What you did in this and that situation is wrong; we don't like it." Instead, you’ll notice a gradual decrease in interactions with Finns. Little by little, your contacts will become fewer and eventually may cease altogether. This doesn’t necessarily mean you are doing something universally considered bad; it could simply be that your behavior is uncomfortable for the majority. You might be too forthright, too confrontational, too opinionated, or even hold unpopular political opinions. Whatever the reason, you will never know unless someone, perhaps under the influence of alcohol, tells you why you have lost contacts. The truth is, Finns are not as sincere or direct as we think we are, simply because we avoid small talk or pleasantries. In reality, when it truly matters, we often remain silent. We maintain a straight face while someone does something we disapprove of and make a mental note that this person is no longer acceptable. This is far from actual sincerity, honesty, and straightforwardness. Written by a Finn

The reasons for conflict avoidance in Finland, particularly in my generation and as a Finnish male, are not exactly the same as in many other countries, at least as I interpret them. We do not avoid conflict because it’s embarrassing or because we’ll lose face. You see, beneath the civility and tolerance of a Finn, and a Finnish male in particular, is a deep-seated hatred and rage towards being told what to do by another person. I feel this in myself as well; there is nothing I hate more than someone having the audacity to tell me I must behave differently or to directly say I am wrong. In my opinion, and this may be outdated, Finns are highly emotional and deeply feeling people. This is precisely why our culture emphasizes being mellow and not showing emotions, because when we do, we often overdo it. We can be really aggressive when we finally feel we’ve had enough, but that breaking point varies from person to person. I know there are Finns everywhere who are just on the brink, counting the months, days, hours, and seconds until they finally let it all out. This is not a pleasant cultural trait, but at least my generation has it, and I have seen it happen many times-when someone just loses their composure and goes off.

For all its ridiculousness, the relatively new Finnish movie "Sisu" actually provides a quite descriptive portrayal of a Finnish man. He just wants to mind his own business, but then outside forces intervene. Once he sees that he has been clearly wronged, there is an intense violent backlash, and the man simply won’t let it go. When it’s so clear that he’s been wronged, he just goes "to an all out war."

The thing with getting Finnish friends - yes it is hard, but that's very common all through Northern Europe, meaning that getting friends is really hard. That's something that shouldn't be taken personally at all, this same problem is in Germany, in Sweden, in the Netherlands, in the Baltics, everywhere in Northern Europe. It's hard for Northern Europeans as well, all my friends are from higher education, not any since that. I'm sure language and different cultural expectatiosn on people play a huge part in this. I mean I like speaking English - up to a point - then it just becomes exhausting. I'm quite good in English but it's not the language I can express myself the best with, and I also love my own language and all the possibilities it gives me for self expression, so I'm sad to say that if a foreigner is not up to hanging around me when I just naturally want to speak Finnish in a group as well as English, then I'd rather just have my friend group to consist of Finnish speakers only. I will speak English to a person who cannot speak Finnish, but then again I also will speak Finnish if it's a group with foreigners and Finns, or if that's considered poor manners I'll just be more quiet.
