Talking Swedish hurts so bad in his Finnish soul! And yet, non of the other Nordics speak it better than him. D:
As you can see, I’m moving further and further away from the idea that Finland can’t talk at all. Instead I now prefer to think that he just doesn’t want to talk, and when he does, it’s in Finnish (or as here, Swedish).
That way achieve two things.
1: Everybody who doesn’t understand Finnish still don’t understand what he says, meaning he might as well be mute.
2: It illustrates that Finnish is significantly different from the other Nordic languages.
Someone will probably ask, “Why does she keep switching between talking Swedish and English?”
The answer: So non-Swedes can understand what is going on, obviously.
And just to avoid an awkward situation when you meet a Swede and feels like telling him/her that you love them, Finland is not saying “I love you” but “I love my mistress”

@whilebeingaway Don't worry about it. You'll probably forget most of it a few months after you stop studying it. Besides, no one said you have to speak Swedish in your day-to-day life.
ALSO: hating people because of what their ancestors did is unwise. There's this buddhist proverb, "holding on to anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die."

"First: if you didn't have such a negative outlook on life, then maybe you'd find it prettier."
As one of my military training officers told us one day: "Pull your head out of your ass and wipe out your eyes. Then life won't look so crappy."

@WhileBeingAway Wow that's... actually quite offensive.
First: if you didn't have such a negative outlook on life, then maybe you'd find it prettier. Second, it's a shame that you hate Swedes, because we don't hate you. It's not as if this generation of Swedes had anything to do with what happened so many years ago, nor are we especially proud of that particular piece. Third: don't hate Swedes for that, because we don't have a say in what your government decides for you school.
Also, I won't judge you over the internet, but, REALLY. You're 13. I doubt you know much about the matter, or much about the world overall.

Does anyone knows where can i find a specific comic? it's the one in which Sweden says:
"Was it you who put all the knives on the left side of the dinner plates? Come on, you can tell me. I promise I won't get angry..."
It also has Sister Finland and Åland in it.
