I think their language is very similar to Estonian, even though many Finns speak Swedish

645770 2008-03-04 00:20:00 Yep, Finnish is a completely different language and, interestingly enough, not considered to be part of Scandinavia by Norwegians, Swedes and Danes :)

Jan, I assume that you speak with an foreign accent, (laced with "kiwi" no doubt) but I don't understand why you write without an accent. Will you explain that, please?:illogical
