Could i live in Finland exclusively speaking Swedish?
>>78346284
Yep. Närpiö/Närpes only has Swedish speakers and 15% refugees.
>>78346284
Not really. Even swedish speaking healthcare is being taken down in Vaasa.
>>78346284
No, fuck off.
Also, PAY REPARATIONS NOW!!!
>>78346284
Technically yes.
Move to Helsinki/Espoo where fucking everything is bilingual from city services to street signs and jobs. Even political parties are bilingual, except true Finns.
Small town Swedish life? Try Vaasa or Jakobstad.
>>78346284
I hope so. I'm moving there in 9 days, and will hopefully be able to do just that.
>>78347210
Nobody speaks Swedish in Espoo
>>78347281
Good luck. I'm sure you'll manage with English as well.
>>78347333
Thanks!
>>78347306
Where in Espoo do you live? I regularly take the bus to Southern Espoo and around there, and every time there's a cute fennoswede or two.
>>78347412
I meant the real Finns. We have the same level of Swedish proficiency as people in Lieksa.
>>78347450
>I meant the real Finns
Bigot.
you should be able to survive with speaking english only
probably not with swedish
Yes in Åland and in some shitty villages in östrabothnia
>>78348102
Pretty cool
>>78348141
>language racism
>cool
>>78346337
It really is a little sweden.
Could I leave in England exclusively speaking Pakistani?
>>78350746
>Pakistani
No such language exists. In Pakistan they speak Urdu.
>>78350746
Yes. In fact you'll receive more rights for doing so
you wont understand the dialects. had a friend born and raised in kemiö and the shit sounds like demon speak.
>>78350929
I'm sure it just takes a little getting used to.
>>78350978
more like a lot of getting used to. its like finglish mixed with 18th century swedish.
>>78350978
You'll have to learn a ton of Finnish words at least. Every Finland-Swedish sentence contains one or two.
>>78347281
Are you the guy going to Turku?
>>78351038
>18th century swedish
best swedish, imo.
>>78351075
Yeah. Well, there's another guy, and I don't know exactly where he's going. But I'm the guy who is going to Turku very soon.
>>78351136
Turkshitborg has few hurris. You won't feel comfortable there.
>>78351136
Study or work?
>>78351041
Can I survive using only Norwegian though?
>>78351205
Gonna study at Åbo Akademi.
>>78351253
Would you survive in Germany using only Norwegian?
>>78351289
Alright, have fun. From what I've heard our student culture is more or less the same as what you have over there in Sweden.
>>78351364
I assume it'll be somewhat more intense to study in Finland.
>>78351434
Most of the people who get into Åbo Akademi are there because of mandatory quotas in higher education.
Finland-Swedes can just chill and never study because the standard quota is triple their population. You'll probably feel like you're surrounded by idiots I would imagine.
>>78351434
Don't know about that but I meant the party/socialising aspect
>>78351510
Oh, haha. Yeah, I imagine it is.
>>78351289
My hometown
>>78351939
How nice!
>>78352049
It's the most beautiful city in Finland, and ships located in riverside are awesome, they are all bars and restaurants
>>78352181
How is it in the winter? I've never lived so near the coast during wintertime before.
>>78346284
Yes. It's easy if you stay in relatively high Swedish speaking areas. Helsingfors is fine.
>>78352181
Turku faggot shilling his shithole to Swedes, how surprising!
>>78352314
How rude! Hope I never visit where you're from.
>>78352181
That is a picture of Åbo. Now let's see what Turku is like:

>>78352396
Heh you better not. Unlike Turkufaggots, here in Helsinki we beat up Swedish speakers who dare speak it outside after sundown.
>here in Helsimki we beat up Swedish speakers
>>78351253
Depends who you speak with. Only the more rural fenno-swedes have stronger dialects. I spoke Swedish with some Norwegian people at my job and we understood each other well.
By the seaside Swedish is spoken more than elsewhere.
>>78352713
You should move to Norway then. Finland is for Finns only.
You'll be fine with english. Don't try to Swedish unless it's like 50% swedish town.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGXGJk0GLcA
Even Helsinki won't understand you
>>78352778
The best thing that halfhurri ever did was die
>>78347450
>meant the real Finns
bit racist, no??
>>78352181
>It's the most beautiful city in Finland,
Full of commieblocks. Turun tauti made sure of that
Unironically Helsinki takes cake easily here and I'm from Turku born and raised
>>78352743
Enpä taida kun olemassaoloni aiheuttaa näinkin mieluisaa peppukipua
>>78352991
Ei oo väärin vihata muukalaisia jotka on asettunu maahamme ja vaativat erityisoikeuksia mutta eihän tollane vitun rantahurri mamuna sitä vois ikinä käsittää. Ei teillä ole isänmaata.
Borgå is a pretty chill small town where many peope speak Swedish
>>78353158
Less and less every year.
>>78351289
good choice actually
hanken beats it though
>>78353370
I would imagine so. Maybe if I'd had more time to think about things I would have applied to it. As it was I only became aware of the possibility of applying to finish schools quite late in the game, with just a few weeks left until applications closed. If I'd started thinking about those sorts of things a year before I had to make a decision, who knows what would have happened.
>>78352253
Pretty warm, rainy, grey and usually not a lot of snow. >>78352458 that video pretty much sums up coastal winter.
>>78353658
Eh, you probably wouldnt enjoy hanken
A lot of fenno-swedes we wuz nobility shit there
They look down on middle class people like me..
