Phonology Travel Guides Finland It is believed that the Baltic Finnic languages evolved from a proto-Finnic language, from which Sami was separated around 1500-1000 BCE. It has been suggested that this proto-Finnic had three dialects: northern, southern and eastern. The Baltic Finnic languages separated around the 1st century, but kept on influencing each other. Therefore, the Eastern Finnish dialects are genetically Eastern proto-Finnic, with many Eastern features, and the Southwestern Finnish dialects have many genuine Estonian influences. The first written form of Finnish was created by Mikael Agricola, a Finnish bishop in the 16th century. He based his orthography on Swedish, German, and Latin. Later the written form was revised by many people.

Learn Finnish Finnish Language Overview Share / Bookmark Overview of the Finnish Language The Finnish language is primarily spoken in Finland. It belongs to the Finno-Ugrian group of languages, which is spoken in a region that extends from Norway into Siberia and the Carpathian Mountains. This language group also includes the Hungarian and Estonian languages. The history of the people and language of Finland is a sensitive topic that can spark debate. The Finnish language, like many languages, has been greatly influenced by other cultures over a long period of time and is still in the process of evolution. The actual history of the language is mysterious and intriguing. Until recently, it was thought that ancestors of the modern Finnish people arrived approximately two thousand years ago from the East. But current theories surmise that Finland has been populated since the last Ice Age some 9,000 years ago! The Finnish language appears to be rooted in the distant past. Standard Finnish, however, is quite new, the written language having been established only in the 1500s. Modern Standard Finnish arrived in the 19th century, as the result of a strong nationalist movement. With the independence of Finland in 1917 came the realization that Finland was a nation with two languages: Finnish and Swedish. The country is now considered to be bilingual.

72. Valkoinen Kuolema - (Finnish Language) (Editor's Note The History of Finland is not well know on this side of the Atlantic. Yet it is one of the most compelling stories of determination and will against aggression. http://www.snipercountry.com/BVT_Reviews/ValkoinenKuolema.asp

Valkoinen Kuolema (Finnish language) By Petri Sarjanen 6 January 2000 By Hans Berg (Editor's Note: The History of Finland is not well know on this side of the Atlantic. Yet it is one of the most compelling stories of determination and will against aggression. Few nations have fought against the odds faced by Finland and most would be hard pressed to do as well. This book is the story about a man who today still holds the record for the highest scoring sniper in history, Simo Häyhä. While we will not see a translation of this work on this side of the pond for some time, we at Sniper Country felt his deeds and those of his countryman deserve recognition - SNP) The book " Valkoinen Kuolema " (=White Death) is a non-fiction work about one man's struggle to protect his home and country against an outside aggressor. It is also a book about self-determination and the bravery of one small nation against incredible odds. It describes a young man's road to becoming one of the major snipers of World War II. The book (ISBN 952-5170-05-5), published by Revontuli of Finland, is written in a casual, easy to read style. Unfortunately for most readers, it is written in Finnish and, unless translated, unavailable. Because of this, the following review is somewhat longer than what we usually see on Sniper Country During WW II, the Soviet Union (USSR) invaded Finland twice. The "Winter War" began on November 30th, 1939, with a peace treaty being signed in March of 1940. In 1941, Finland was again drawn into the war, now called the "Continuation War."
