wait, someone has been updating the top post, or many people, there is much more information than last time, and the “last edit” thing says it’s me at a time I was at school, I have no problem with you people editing it (probably admins) but could you make a post to say what you edited cause it will become confusing very quickly. ---

Well, sure there is a Finnish-speaking minority in Sweden, but compared to the Swedish-speaking minority in Finland it’s nothing significant. Over there they have entire cities where Swedish is the most commonly spoken language. I guess you could also technically live in Sweden and speak [sami](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sami_people), though I guess you wouldn’t really consider yourself a swede then. ---

There’s no need to debate if a country has minority of any languages or not, let’s stick to the original idea please. You tell country and language so nobody needs to guess or debate about it. ---

Sweden/Swedish. En go’ gubbe! I’m the son of finnish immigrants though, so my blood is finnish. This used to be a huge problem every time there was an hockey tournament 'cause I didn’t know what team to cheer on - today I just cheer on the winner… it’s easier that way.
