Swedish Teacher Reacts To "Geography Now - Sweden" [MY COUNTRY]

[@kazumager4272]

I (german) think Sweden is VERY similar to Germany, especially in culture. We also do the bus thing here ^^

[@voltanaares2408]

And dont even get started with the train or S-Bahn. You walk along the whole train just to find a free spot

[@tinodafuq4219]

what is 'bus thing' ? 🙄

[@PolyDuff]

@@tinodafuq4219 The unwritten rule that, if possible, you avoid taking a seat right next to someone else (i.e. a stranger) in public transportation (for instance). That's frowned upon in Germany as well.

[@khaler21]

@@PolyDuff Wow. The first world problems getting wierder and wieder. They have so much space that they have a rule to not sit besides a passenger while in some countries people have to sit on top of the train because there's no space and there's only one train.

[@PolyDuff]

@@khaler21 Whoa easy there! Let me state a few things here. Firstly, like I said, it's an unwritten rule and like I also said, you try to avoid it IF POSSIBLE. Secondly it's not my fault that there are countries which are so overpopulated that the trains are operating over their capacity. Third is that I really do hope that the trains in said countries operate on diesel because riding on top of a train which is powered by an overhead line is quite dangerous. And finally let me mention the fact, that I don't give a monkey's toss about trains, because I prefer using my car, I just mentioned the way it is over here: If the trains are empty enough, there's no point in taking a seat right next to someone else. If a train should become more busy over time, hardly anyone objects to someone sitting right next to them. Cheers!

And just like there is a big Finnish minority in Sweden, there is also a big Swedish-speaking minority in Finland, of which arguably the most famous person is Linus Torvalds, inventor of Linux, which is running the whole internet, Android devices, your car, your TV, the drone Ingenuity that is currently flying around on Mars.. chances are, if a device has a processor, it runs Linux.

[@thetoyyya6890]

Worth noting that a big difference is that while Finland has decently sized areas (mainly in coastal regions) where Swedish is the majority language, Sweden basically doesn't have any areas where Finnish is the majority language (the Torney Valley used to be majority Finnish speaking but hasn't been for quite a while now). So while Sweden has a big Finnish minority there isn't really a big separate identity in the same way the Swedish speaking areas of Finland have.

They are WRONG about the "Allemansrätten" (Right of Public Access). You HAVE access to be on private land! That's the point! This is how it works; "'the public has access to private land where no damage is likely to result and prohibition would be unreasonable"'. You can camp anywhere you want....in Sweden for one or two nights. (Not caravans dough....that's not real camping anyway) ;-) You can pick berries in the woods, climbing or hiking, fishing is free with rods along the coast and in the five largest lakes, you have to buy a "fishing-card" in many smaller lakes but that doesn't cost much. The nature is available for everybody. With a few EXCEPTIONS like peoples GARDENS, MILITARY AREAS and SUCHLIKE, and with these "right to roam" come responsibilities; that is, an OBLIGATION neither to harm, disturb, litter, nor to damage wildlife or crops. "The Swedish know-it-all" ;-)

"En tomt i lagens mening är alltså vidsträckt omkring bostadshus [...]" Also, they were SPECIFICALLY talking about walking into someone's backyard, or private PROPERTY, which Allemansrätten does NOT permit. The law is available for anyone online, so why you wouldn't spend a couple of minutes researching something you clearly know NOTHING about is beyond me. That's normal in the States, but if you're a Swede, let's have a moment of silence for the teachers that had to put up with you. And to the idiot Pelle who posted the OG comment.

I’d highly recommend a trip to the US specifically Minnesota. It’s fascinating how influenced they are by Swedish culture and food. I’d imagine it for someone born in Sweden to be similar to visiting a “Chinatown” area in a lot of US cities. Not China, but you can see the roots and get a sampling of the culture especially with county and state fairs, festivals, food, and art. There are quite a few pockets of the US heavily influenced by immigration. Where I’m from in the Midwest it’s German and Czech. A lot of folks look at the US as one big thing but if you dig a little deeper you quickly realize just how different each state is in many ways and much influence there is.

[@aragorniielessar1894]

It did not take Germany two weeks to occupy Norway in 1940, it took them 8 weeks. Norway lastet longer against Germany than France did, France surrendered after 6 weeks. Also Sweden never owned Norway, the only thing Norway and Sweden shared during the union was the monarch and foreign policy. .

I think you're allowed to camp for one night on private land but need to move out of there before a second night comes. Regarding the Swedish healthcare, it seems to be very differing quality depending on county. I have several health issues and my experience with the healthcare has been mostly positive, while some friends in other counties have had a lot of problems when needing care.

Dear Michael, as an American, I would like to tell you that you do NOT have the right to complain about healthcare in Sweden. I live in Central Ohio, which is one of the most affordable places to live in in the US that's not underdeveloped and pay close to $4600/year in health insurance. Yet if I take an ambulance in an emergency, my copay is $1400 for the ride and that's cheap! I'm not going to say how much the copay for treatment or surgery is. 🤮 You won't believe it!

[@coyotelong4349]

Exactly. As a fellow American (Arizonan) I wholeheartedly agree. Residents of countries with universal healthcare might not love everything about it as citizens of that country. I get it. But for me this sort of misses the point. it’s not about whether universal healthcare is perfect. Nobody expects it to be… Rather, it provides peace of mind. With universal healthcare, if you need to be rushed to a hospital in an ambulance, you have the peace of mind of knowing that you will not have a bill to settle after you leave, wondering if your employer-issued health insurance will cover enough for you to afford paying the rest. People covered by universal healthcare don’t fully comprehend what the alternative is. I would rather people have a baseline of healthcare that’s not perfect than avoid checkups and medical attention because they have inadequate coverage and literally can’t afford to get sick or injured… Which is 100% a thing in the US You can’t put a price on peace of mind, which is what universal healthcare offers.

[@becausemiro]

As a fellow American I also agree! We pay WAY too much and still get terrible treatment and service, no matter the cost

[@PolyDuff]

The fact that something is even worse in another country doesn't void ones right to complain about the situation in ones own country though. That said, from what I've heard about the healthcare in the US, I'd look into every possibility for moving to another country, even if that'd probably prove very painful, leaving friends and relatives behind. But I'd not be willing to forfeit my own well being on behalf of an incompetent government.

[@tildarosander1339]

Allemansrätten: Never within sight of a house, never on farmed land. You are however allowed to pick mushrooms and berries in a private forrest or field. Always taking care not to destroy crop or spook livestock. You can also, and this is cool, stay one night on private land as long as you move on the next day. You should also leave the place as you found it. We biked around Öland, the farmer came out and warned us that the cattle was a bit unruly in the paddock that we had chosen. He suggested that we camp in the birthing paddock within the main paddock, That was great until it rained and my friend woke up in a puddle in the tent. We dried out in the shed. Should have tented in the shed from the beginning though. PS. It's tricky to find a place to camp that isn't a paddock on Öland. Unless you want to pay. Allemansrätten doesn't apply in cities...

As a Canadian and as a music guy, if i could go to Sweden, i would start in "Gothenburg" because that's where Swedish death metal comes from, the one thing i associate with Sweden (aside from damn decent hockey). I appreciate when a country innovates a musical style so well that it kinda owns it. France does house music, England does heavy metal, Germany and Finland do that dark gothic industrial metal, but Sweden does melodic death metal, so that's my thing.

[@MellonVegan]

Yeah, you pretty much have that same accent. It's not the strongly accented stereotype but definitely Swedish (or at least Nordic). The most prominent feature of the accent would be the melody (which you don't have). But some vowels are a bit different and some of your plosives don't sound as plosive, so to speak. I mean that's my assessment from literally a sentence or two ^^ Edit: you do sound more like her than like him btw, which makes sense, I guess.

And there were a lot of kids in my school with finnish names when I grew up, so Finland never felt far away to me. Having you guys close to Scandinavia is only natural!

@ww2 germans took Denmark in a couple of hours, while coming with tanks accross the danish border @Kruså, and the danish army came on bicycles with machineguns. I hate, what germans have done!

Swedish is still mandatory in finnish schools. And the swedish speaking finns have to learn finnish in school

Dear Swedes, if you go to Italy, don't ask for Fika (derogatory word for women's anatomy, or can be directed at a woman implying questionable moral character.)

It's pretty funny hearing you say "Only tourits want to go to Stockholm", because you said in another video "I've been to Ireland. I went to Dublin!" and I was like "BOOO! THAT'S NOT IRELAND!" lol.

Germany practically took Norway in ONE day, 9. of april 1940...and it's still a disgrace to this day.

People claim that Swedish is easy to learn but they are very arrogant. Sure you can read and write in Swedish but speaking it is a whole other thing. I do not count a language as learnt until you can clearly understand what people are saying. Non Swedish people speaking swedish is instantly noticable and very often hard to understand so i cant really give them the credit of learned the language if i have to constantly say "Excuse me can you say that again".
