The Finnish Way of Drinking - Robert Gustafsson

[@henkkahenrik4183]

okay, as a finnish native speaker his accent is so on point it confuses me. like everything he says sounds like real finnish words, like he was actually speaking fluent finnish, but nothing he says makes sense.... it’s like i understand it and don’t at the same time. basically like listening to a real finnish drunk. so black out drunk nothing he says makes sense, but it sounds like it should. 😂

[@ecMonify]

robert gustafsson is amazing at imitating swedish accents as well, didn't know it translated into finnish too :P

[@sudocatsda1guy390]

Tl;dr he sounds like a drunken finn because you can't make sence what he's saying

[@diomedes8791]

Henkka Henrik Can you give an assessment of the «accuracy» in this clip where the late Norwegian comedian Harald Heide Steen jr speaks gibberish Finnish? The clip starts with him (in character) speaking a Western Norwegian dialect, and then at 0:26 he encounters a Finn in the sauna on a ferry to Finland: www.svada.no/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/sylfest_strutle_7.mp3

[@henkkahenrik4183]

selenographia there is a slight swedish accent to it. it’s just a tad too soft and expressive. like probably somebody from åland, or a swedish guy living in finland. finnish accent is a bit more monotone and harsh than that. like we were a tad angry and swearing all the time no matter what we say.

[@diomedes8791]

Henkka Henrik that’s very interesting information that I could not know unless told by a native speaker of Finnish. Thank you very much and greetings from Norway!

[@rubenick]

I'd say it's pretty accurate

[@Sneric]

Rubenick you have no idea how many times this has happend whenever my dad have gotten drunk XD

[@Kummituslinna]

Not too accurate. But funny.

[@drops2cents260]

That sounds like a pinpoint accurate description of a nice and satisfactory evening. :-)

[@juhouski]

yup. spot on.

[@DjMiBsweden]

still so funny =) haha showed it to my finnish friends here in sweden and they still havnt seen it ... haha they laughed their ass off... its so accurate.. but the finnish he speaks not so much =) watching in 2019 haha

[@muranziel]

Oh, I forgot to mention, The Coma to which drinking ends, is also known as a Monday.

[@fransojala7785]

Monday? You dont happen to mean sunday vol. 2?

[@Nicohakuu1]

Although he imitates a Finn in gibberish, it sounds like our language a lot! He did great job adapting the accent and some kind 'tempo' in our way of speech. I laughed so hard since those stages of getting drunk is true of some people :,D I'm a Finn as well

[@Sjoerdwm1981]

last time i had this phase of drunkness in Suomi...i somehow got slapped by a really pretty girl...no idea what i said, but apparently i mastered Suomiska.

[@Jwend392]

Oddly, this is also the typical reaction Finns have when watching their Hockey team play Sweden, Canada, or Russia..

[@kriho02]

other way around this year :

[@sotkajarvi]

Well... I would say it has been other way around this year! 😂

[@Tauno211]

It's because that's done drunk as well. Not because of the outcome of the game.

[@Caliman66]

And now USA...my Finnish friends tell me.

[@JorgenKreedz]

100% of the finnish people sounded like this in 2003...5-1 to 6-5 in the world hockey cup

[@Heidi9809]

I'm a finn and I laughed my ass off! This video goes to my favourites, hahaha!! Gonna show this to my Swedish teacher!

[@FinnishPagan]

;D

[@andyappleton3353]

I'm a 3rd generation Finnish diaspora. It must be in the DNA or something because I do this exact same thing. But mine goes this way...Silence, fool's happiness and altruism, sadness, anger, coma, regret.

[@daniel.sandberg.5298]

Why, teachers arent built that way. Instead they will say:BACK TO WORK!!!!!

[@Xopeto1]

Sounds like finnish, but its not. Exciting to listen, because sounds like finnish (my mother language) but you still don't understand it. That's good imitating.

[@hiimsparklessecondone5690]

[@annaliisa7233]

+Hi im sparkles second one Saatana perkelettä ennen oli [gibberish] eli siansaksa

[@loch70]

Skärp dig för fan. De flesta finnar tycker att det är kul ju. Vad är ditt problem?

[@g8le]

Varför är du så aggressiv? Personligen tyckte jag det var en intressant observation. Det visar att Robert är bra på dialekter och språk. Poängen med ts första kommentar var inte att klaga på att det var gibberish, utan att påpeka att det var en bra imitation. Dumfan.

[@jole0000]

You can hear some words like kaskelotti or minä

[@Losrandir]

[@abacab54321]

Golden, golden, golden, absolutely golden! Cheers from a Finn! This is so spot on - even the pure gibberish parts were in some weird way well rooted in Finnish phonetics, prosody and intonation. This guy is clearly a genius. I hope he'll do a comedy tour across Finland. All thumbs up!

he's been the most famous comedian in Sweden since the 90's, the guy is hilarious :D

This guy could go to a bar and talk like this in Finland and people would get confused whether they forgot their language

[@andriandrason1318]

That would be so funny 🤣

[@scholion]

This is 100% true. Last year, Robert Gustafsson was awarded the most prestigious Pro Finlandia Medal of the Order of the Lion of Finland for his unparallelled efforts in the domain of examining and portraying the Finnish mind and Finnish Culture.

[@hx7004]

I’m Swedish and I must say wekre blessed to have him, he’s by FAR the best swedish comedian

[@Sjoerdwm1981]

i suppose, he is the only comedian? XD

[@andriandrason1318]

I find that sad

[@konnykontant]

As a half Finn, I saw a lot of this when I grew up in the 80's from my uncles. You get the whole spectrum of feelings 🤣 I'm no different, but only half of the time 🤣

[@helmi-66]

You know, this is not only super hilarious, but he is actually very talented. I mean, he is just brilliant..

Judging by the name you're most likely finlandsvensk (fennoswede) and it's highly likely you have finns in your genetics. I am half fennoswede and I don't doubt I have finnish as well as swedish ancestors.

As a Finnish person, I can say that this is 100% accurate

[@hereinweymouth]

Tauno and Veikko shared their parents' home. Father died and Veikko stayed while Tauno went to America and he won a prize in the lottery. He bought a ticket to Finland and went home to visit He saw his brother going into the tavern, where they basked in each other's glow for some minutes. Finally Tauno asked "How's mother/" Veikko answered angrily, "Say! Did you come here to talk or to drink?"
