[@niles8576]

i have never heard such a bad pronunciations of Finnish words. also taking someone behind the sauna means saying that u would beat them up or kill them, it never means shut up. to say shut up u could say turpa kiinni

[@fanthianonline]

Exactly, when you hear "Saunan takana on tilaa", you are going to have a really bad day 😅

[@fanthianonline]

And I also agree with pronunciations, it was painful to hear. I had hard time to understand what was said, but to be fair, I've only spoken Finnish for last 45 years as my native language 😅

[@Zaembylae]

That is propably AI that is trying to pronounce finnish.

[@Jubanen12]

I feel like it was made by AI with how confidently it kept going after that massager of a pronunciation... lmao some of those attempts werent even close xD

[@EvaAstro]

Probably a robot…. Some typos in the Finnish texts too 😬

[@Pikaxsu]

take you behind the sauna has way stronger meaning than "shut up" (Shut up is actually "close (your) head" "pää kiinni") "take you behind the sauna" means to end you - it was where animals were slaughtered - behind the sauna. because you might need to wash parts of the carcass (like intestines to make (blood)sausage) and yourself after the work. Please do not say you take anyone behind the sauna - ever.

[@Ichigoeki]

Reason why prepositions are an important part of English grammar to learn. the sauna --> an honor the sauna --> a threat 😁

[@susijosyntyessaan]

You pronounced all those Finnish words better than the original video's voice did. My favourite natural park I have visited is Repovesi which can be hiked through and also has a boat ride. I drink atleast 3 times coffee during a day, in total it is around 1 liter (I use 4dl mug at home and 3dl mug at work). My favourite coffee shops and restaurants are all located in Vaasa, where I used to study. Finnish sport that could have been mentioned is cheerleading, I can't remember how many gold metals they have.

[@RainbowPaveman]

There is this book which has finnish proverbs and idioms "Matti in the Wallet". It is in english, and has visual representation with literal meaning and real meaning in english.

[@madveiler]

As a Finn, l had never heard of some of these facts 😂 but yes, our cuisine is a mix between Swedish and Russian cuisine and we have also adopted many customs of both of these countries. Some good Finnish bands are Nightwish, HIM, Children of Bodom, Insomnium

[@sateentuoksu]

And Amorphis, Mors Principium Est, Wintersun (not particularly productive, though), Omnium Gatherum, Swallow the Sun, Trees of eternity and Hallatar (r.i.p Aleah 💔 ), Timo Rautiainen & Trio Niskalaukaus, Ghost Brigade, Suburban Tribe... I would concider HIM more a poppy rock band, though? Or is it just the finnish way of rating what is heavy? 😁

[@madveiler]

​@@sateentuoksutrue HIM isn't metal, but in the video they were asking for recommendations for metal/rock/any genre

Greets from Finland! I just wanted to say firstly that I've been watching/listening your videos nonstop for a few weeks now, and wanted to give you a comment about this video. I visited the ice hotel in Levi, it was called Luvattumaa (Promised Land) and it was a total tourist rush. I enjoyed the stay there, but didnt stay the night because we had a cabin reserved for us. The food was great and the staff were great, but as a Finn I dislike crowded areas and people in general 😂 It's always fun to see foreigners being fascinated about Finland, so keep up the great work and keep making videos!

[@KalleKilponen]

@17:06 I'd take the language related things in this video with a grain of salt. Unfortunately the presenter is absolutely butchering some of the pronunciation and some of these are just plain incorrect. (For example "olen hyvin" is a nonsensical word pairing.) Oh and #38 is out of date. There used to be a sauna championship, but it was cancelled when a Russian participant died and a Finnish one ended up in intensive care (they were using painkillers to stay in the Sauna for way longer than their bodies could handle).

[@olevaiti4302]

My most appreciated Finnish athlete is Lasse Viren, who won 4 Olympic Gold Medals (10.000 m and 5.000 m in 1972 and 1976). Halfway in 1972 Munich's 10.000 m final he stumbled down, but got up and won. He has some Finnish Sisu. Today, at the age of 74, he is still with us and in good condition. Glory to Lasse.

[@tero920]

About three cups of coffee a day is typical for myself but I think I don't make it very strong usually. The habit for me mostly comes from how the workday is structured/paced.

[@immune85]

"I don't need to know you to know you means mugs, not cups".I said while putting my coffee mug back against my lips, with only a slight smirk on my stupid face.

[@oh2mp]

A little warning. That channel has a huge amount of mistakes in its videos. I tried to spot all on their Åland video, but after about 8 minutes I gave up because there were so many that I couldn't count them. BTW that speech synthesizer they have used pronounces Finnish words hilariously wrong.

[@OH8EFI]

That facts video was far from good. I very rarely get upset about poor pronounciation but that facts guy murdered most of the world 😂

When it comes to coffee, I don't measure the amount in cups. I drink 3-5 pots of coffee per day.

[@kohinaario]

Blood pancakes are delicious, as are blood sausages. I bet you would like them. I prefer your pronounciation to the voiceover in the video 😅 Finnish is not easy for foreigners. I was born in Rovaniemi, where the Santa Clause Village is. It is popular among tourists all year round. My favorite Finnish band is Poets of The Fall. They sing in English, and Marko Saaresto has a divine voice. Their music is melodical rock/pop. Yep, some inconsistencies in the video (like a picture of Tallinn, or a red cardinal among the birds), but still it was very entertaining. Keep up the good work!

[@Pentti_Hilkuri]

Blood pancakes and lingonberry jam. * Chef's kiss *

[@ristovirtanen6396]

Finnish pronunciation is easy if you don’t try using complicated English pronunciation rules! Try Italian, Spanish or German instead 👌

[@Sepelrastas]

Santa is from Korvatunturi, which is currently just over the border in Russia. The Santa village in Rovaniemi is a touristy place (although it can very well be the real Santa's exile residence).

[@ruupeni]

Amazing how well you pronounciate this language! Very cool!

[@helikaarretkoski6306]

Best finnish metal bands are absolutely Nightwish and Poets of the Fall. And yes we drink a lot of coffee... I drink about 5 cups per day and one cup is 2 desiliters😂.

[@hannahchessell6111]

I was in Finland for Vappu this year, what an amazing experience! The caps they were are from their graduation from Uni. Everyone seems to have one!

[@mtee837]

Actually the caps are mostly from graduating high school (lukio in finnish) or vocational school (ammattikoulu). They are both 2nd degree education, university is higher 3rd degree education. Vappu is the workers holiday (työväen juhla in finnish) celebrating working class people and students.

[@CU65LATER]

Coffee drinking is huge thing in Finland. Maybe this is the reason dark wintertime , maybe .

I served as a military musician (drummer) in Fiinnish Conscript band early 90's. We also got basic training for air-defence. It all took about 9,5 months.

[@Elyuwu_]

Finnish city architecture varies quite significantly between areas and has lots similarities to the neighbouring countries. For instance, in the capital area (and i'm sure in some other places too), we were building soviet style concrete buildings to house the growing population of major cities. You can still see these today, but I feel like they've fallen out of favor. Another significant similarity is our general architechture to the other nordic countries. Our cities are extremely similar, to the point where you could probably call Stockholm & Helsinki the same city if you didn't know any better. I'd actually recommend opening google maps and visiting central Stockholm and Central Helsinki to get a feel for this. The suburban areas are also similar, since we generally have lots of space as opposed to more densely populated countries. On another note, we also have similar "mökki" or cottage culture as the Swedes, where lots of people have their vacation homes / cottages near lakes, and lots of finnish families have them. And you know what? The swedes even have their own ice hotel. In short, finnish architecture and culture has lots of ties to the other Nordic cultures, as well as some to Russia. Many people around my age or older will probably even remember their grandmothers owning Matryoshka dolls, which originate from Russia. And to add onto the culture topic, Finland is in a similar situation to lots of other countries, where some of our culture has become more and more westernized over the years. Thankfully we put lots of effort into writing down our history & making it accessible through museums and art exhibitions, personally I've been to some museums that some may consider "boring", such as a museum exhibiton dedicated to just how we used to farm. They may be a little boring, but they are important in keeping the history & culture alive when moving into the digital world Edit: To add onto our architechtural design, our cities are also accomodating of large parks & lots of greenery. It was surprising to me that a place as beautiful as Sibelius park can be so close to central helsinki, next to apartment buildings and a reasonably busy road I used to drive down. Our cities look amazing in the summer, which, atleast for me, makes the quality of life much better than a soulless concrete block

[@jussikapanen104]

3-5 cups of coffee were mentioned but not that Finnish coffee cups are also bigger than in the rest of Europe. Worldwide, Finns consume most coffee per capita: 9.3 kg/person in a year. Architecture: I'd highlight the Finnish functionalism, represented by e g. the architect Alvar Aalto. Olympics: Finland has won more olympic medals per capita than any other country - except the Bahamas. The term "Flying Finn" used to refer to long distance runners like Paavo Nurmi before it was linked to rally drivers. And about Finnish metal music - you yourself had a wonderful reaction video with Nightwish and "Ghost Love Score". Thanks! Can you recommend some Scotch band we Finns should hear about?

[@stoner84x]

Matti Nykänen was THE Best skijumper In the world

[@ann-marieeriksson1367]

I'm a Finnish-Swede and we speaking Swedish are treated as 2nd class citizens since we are a bitter reminder that Finland belonged to Sweden from 1209, and the upper class took over the best parts of Finland, using Finns as their workers. Though this was millenniums have passed, we are considered as unwanted due to that. There is a tension between the two language groups, after all this time! Still I would choose living in Finland any day. All the facts presented in this video are true, and is one of the most beautiful countries in the world!

[@AngeFIN]

Teemu Selänne (NHL) is probably the most famous athlete after the F1 drivers. Among active athletes probably best known is Lauri Markkanen (NBA). Most infamous in Finland was Matti Nykänen (Ski-Jumping) Also pronunciations in the video you reacted to were comically wrong, don't try to learn them :)

[@Msihearthellokitty96]

I would recommend listening to Amorphis, a metal band in Finland that make their songs inspired by Kalevala, it's kinda like folk metal/progressive metal/even melodic death metal. Quite hard to put into one genre or subgenre, but the songs are beautiful. As for the songs I'd recommend You I need, Sacrifice, House Of Sleep, Silver Bride and The Bee. Please do enjoy

[@undertasty]

Oh the bit about Kimi Räikkönen and Mika Häkkinen took me back! When the Mika Häkkinen vs. Michael Schumacher fever was at its peak, my family would wake up at cock crow to watch it. I remember being shook awake by my dad before the sun was up, and I would join my family in front of the tv. We would wake up drinking coffee and eating oven warm pastries, and watch the whole spectacle. It was a really good time

[@tuomassankiaho]

I would go for Nightwish - Phantom of the opera for the music reaction.

[@liisagawley2053]

The most famous metal band is Nightwish. Their music is symphonic metal. Well worth checking. Blood sausages are similar to black pudding in the UK. Doughnuts are eaten with coffee. Even more popular are buns called 'pulla' in Finnish. I usually drink three cups of coffee a day. The most common type is light roasted filter coffee. Nobody likes instant coffee. When it comes sports, the most popular ones are ice hockey and cross country skiing. I personally like snowboarders like Enni Rukajärvi. Every house has a sauna and a lot of families love to take sauna in their summer cottage by a lake. You stay in the hot sauna throwing water on the stones on the stove and then go to have a swim in the lake. Then back to sauna and so on. Then a wash and a cold drink. Sauna is the place clense your body and soul.

[@sikkepossu]

13:14 Well, as a Finn I have never heard about "day of failure". General public definitely don't celebrate it. Maybe it is just a thing of university students.

[@Vapourized90]

It's not. I've never heard about it and I've been really involved in student organizations.

[@House_of_Caine]

[@josniikseen6405]

6-8 cups of coffee every day. We finns really like coffee.😄.

[@asenathmay]

Our 1 cup of coffee is more like 6 espressos in one. Usually with some milk and sugar.

[@anomnom3144]

Oh and about the heavy metal bands, you should check up Hevisaurus. It's a heavy metal band for kids, put together by professional heavy metal artists, who said that despite that they make lyrics for kids, the music is still composed like for adult listeners. They songs are very high in quality for kids' song. Like song Räyh (Roar)

[@sateentuoksu]

Idk if this is the number today, too, but 2019 count of heavy metal bands were said to be even higher: "The country now has some 70 bands per 100,000 people" (70.6 to be exact) - - No. 2023 : "With around 84.5 Heavy Metal bands per 100 000 citizens, Finland has the most Metal bands per capita in the world by a wide margin"

[@CountSadistOIII]

The coffee is great here

[@XtreeM_FaiL]

The snow hotel have smoke detectors in every room. Cups of coffee? Who counts like that? It's like counting bottles of beer instead of six packs. 7:24 That's not correct (depends). Sometimes people do say that because they are really annoyed (or just because it's a funny saying). "Viedä saunan taakse" means execution. Much more common say is "turpa kiinni" which is snout shut. Or "turpa kii tai se turpoo kii", which is snout shut or it will be swollen to shut. Piehole is propably best translation for turpa in that case. 10:17 Santa moved there like 20 years ago. He lived in Korvatunturi before that and still has his house (somewhere)there. Folk music festival(s) has much more disturbances than the Tuska metal festival (Tuska is the most peaceful big music festival in Finland)

[@immune85]

The first part of your comment sounds like a country song. 😂 Also, I totally agree. We use mugs, not cups. "Turpa kii tai se turpoo kii!", fucking love it. 😂

EDIT: Also the thing takes like 9 days so prepare your liver!

foreigner making films about finland. ** sigh ** 2:56 We call our country "suo-mi" and the origins are well known, as it literally translate to swamp-land. And since we basically were and in place still are a swamp-land, the reasons are also well known. So, if anyone is weird and perhaps disrespectful - its the foreigners who call the place by a name the natives have never used since they settled it during the ice-age. Maybe we should call england weirdistan. And the u.s. "whoopdidoland" Anyhow, guy is just listing tourist shit. And stuff foreigners find noteworthy. I have never eaten blood pancakes, i dont doubt it exist ... i am sure someone somwhere eats cockroaches too, but its _not really a thing_ burger king sauna - no i have not been there, that too is tourist-bullshit. All finns have access to a private sauna in their house, or in the basement of their appartment block which they can use privately. There is very little motivation to intermigle with tourists who panic when you make it a little bit warm. Sauna means several things: traditional: getting farmhands proper clean before sunday for church traditional: giving birth, drying clothes, last rest of a deceased before transport to the grave. Because it is the cleanest room on a farm. traditional: a place of contemplation, sometimes spirituality - (origin of the word vesihiisi is believed to come from the steam that leaves the stone after you throw water on them) modern: party amongst friends, with customers or during political negotiations. (finnish president kekkonen, is known to have discussed business with his russian counterpart in the sauna) ---- not a thing: public mixed gender saunas that required swimsuit - the sauna is not a place to find your date, or to creep at them - and (especially synthetic)clothes are considered unhygienic. Only foreigners do that, and this is what i would expect to see in "burger-king" saunas, or other public saunas in helsinki touristic areas. --- There is a nice sauna in one or more hockey-arenas/vip launge - there i would go, there i would expect finns to do it properly :) ps: would you pronounce names and places like the narrator does, you would be thrown in jail, or shot... or forced to be in a room with an open can of rotten fish. - without subtitles, no finn would recognize any of the names and places like that. Lots of the finnish saying are also not a thing. Shut up you could say - close your head = pää kiinni or turpa kiinni Bringing someone behind the sauna (viedään saunan taakse) is much more serious, in the civil war thats where executions happened. (if a finn speaks in earnest like that to you - then it would be prudent to change the location... walk slowly and backwards, avoid eye contact - if you hear a roar, lay flat on the ground and cover your head) Narrator is clueless... please forget it all again asap.

Oh! I hadn't heard before that we used to think little birds were souls of children but now the very popular Christmas song Varpunen Jouluaamuna (The Sparrow on Christmas Morning) makes so much more sense. In the song a little girl is visited by sparrow on a cold Christmas morning and she offers the bird some seeds. The bird happily accepts the gift and tells the girl that he is actually his little brother visiting from Heaven and because girl had shown she has a kind heart the God is going to bless her. And yes, most of our popular Christmas songs are not very cheerful.

[@anomnom3144]

For the influence, I'm originally from East Finland from North Savo region. The local dialect is influenced by Russian language. For example, an umbrella in Finnish is sateenvarjo (lit. rain's shadow). In Russia, it's зонт (shont) and in Savo dialect, sontikka. Also, the dialect is.... how to discribe it... kind of "slippery", the same way as Russian is. You can immediately pick up anyone mimicking Savo dialect, no matter how good they would be, because they don't have this slippery intonation in it. (Like, for example, water is vesi in Finnish, and in Savo it is vesj with j - but a non-native Savo speaker will typically say ves and drop the j when mimicking the dialect)

And sometimes also in practice.. Blood-sausage, (mustamakkara) you'd be surprised how blood is an key ingredient in about 70% of things in the world..

I do have to apologise for being a bit late to this party, but I felt I had to add my two cents, or whatever is your local currency. What comes to finnish blood sausage, you'd want to have either cranberry or, if you have the guts for it, lingonberry jam with it. A delectable finnish cuisine to be sure. Regarding sneezes, the usual response to a sneeze around here is 'terveydeksi', literally translating to 'for health'. I have no idea for whose health. The sneezer or the sneezee? Might have germanic roots. On the 'weird' beliefs in finland? Thank Väinämöinen christianity hasn't been able to snuff out all of the finnish shamanistic traditions yet. On music? They say Finland has the most metal bands per capita in the world. So, I could only recommend Nightwish (as per the comments down below) and, if you want something lighter, the 69 eyes (gothic rock). As for for folk music, check out Loituma (you might find some familiar tunes such as Ievan Polkka) Again, my apologies if I'm too late to this party and all of this is old news.

But the Finnish determination was again proven.. with SISU you can handle heat that actually killed a fellow competitor..

I bet you would definitely like blood pancakes and blood sausage (veriletut and musta makkara), I assume taste is quite similar to blood pudding.
