Hi Mr. Nesbit,
now I found something more, about Scandinavian culture.
First one thing, in Norway and Sweden, we say that Scandinavia is only Denmark, Sweden and Norway.
Fact.
This is because of the culture, we have almost the same language and the stereotype in these countries is blond.
Where as Finland is the odd Nordic country.
So when you ask if I speak Finnish, since I'm from Norway.
You might as well have asked if I speak Russian, since I'm from Norway.
Not because Russand and Finnish are similar.
But because both languages and cultures, are very different from Scandinavian, (Norwegian, Swedish and Danish), culture.
Hope this explains it better.
Found the comic on Nordic Society in Manchester Facebook-page.
Best regards,
Erik Ribsskog
