Russia in Finnish, as Finns call Russians

Russian in Finnish does not sound as familiar as in other languages ​​of the world. Finns call Russia Venaya (Venäjä). Russian or Russian sounds like venäläinen. This is normal neutral handling.

However, today in Finland you can hear another word for Russians - ryssä (ryssä). Now that's a derogatory nickname. Currently, the word russya is applied to all Russian speakers in Finland, including non-Russian speakers. Ryussha can also be called children from mixed marriages.

The word "Russa" in Finnish has become widespread due to the influence of Sweden. In Swedish, Russian sounds like ryss (stylistically neutral) and it is from him that the disparaging ryssä comes from.

Traveling around Finland is the best vacation for those who believe in fairy tales. Everything here resembles pages of favorite children's stories: Moomintroll, and the Snow Queen, as well as many others. Winter holidays here are great. You can visit wonderful ski resorts, walk around the wonderful cities of Finland, get acquainted with the traditions and customs of this wonderful country. All that can prevent you from having a good rest, or cause discomfort, is the language barrier. In order to avoid embarrassment associated with the incorrect translation of some words and phrases, we have created an excellent site that contains all kinds of phrasebooks, one of which is Russian-Finnish. You can easily download such a phrase book, print it directly from the site and, of course, view it online.

The Russian-Finnish phrase book will become your indispensable assistant and personal translator during your trip. Thanks to him, any conversation in Finnish will be as clear to you as in Russian.

Language in Finland

What is the language in Finland?

Official languages ​​in Finland as many as two: according to a law adopted back in 1922, Finnish and Swedish have the same status as state languages.

Today, the country, nevertheless, is dominated by native speakers of the Finnish language - they are the majority among the local population. Swedish is considered native by only 5.5% of Finns, while other languages ​​​​in total account for about 3%. Most Finns in major cities speak English fluently and, with a minimum knowledge of this language, you will not have communication difficulties in Finland.

talking about official language of Finland It is impossible not to mention the Sami languages, which, although they are not official, have a special status in the country. There are three such languages. Those who consider these languages ​​native are relatively few - only 6-8 thousand, and most of them live in the Saami region of the country. However, the right of local residents to preserve their own languages ​​is enshrined in the country's constitution. They are taught in many schools and kindergartens in the region.

Principle of pronunciation Finnish phrases simple enough. At pronunciation of Finnish words vowels sound like this:

  • the Finnish letter "u" is pronounced like the Russian "u"
  • the Finnish letter "ö" is pronounced like the Russian "ё"
  • the Finnish letter "ä" is pronounced like the Russian "ya"

These letters are pronounced without the characteristic short Russian "y" at the beginning when pronouncing, as if melodiously. Double vowels are read longer, as one long sound.

In words and Finnish phrases you will not hear hissing sounds, they are absent. An interesting feature Finnish is that Finnish pronunciation in the names of some countries of the world are pronounced inconsonantly. These words sound unexpected, for example, Russia (Venäjä) is pronounced Venyaya, Estonia (Viro) - Viro, Germany (Saksa) - Saksa.
