Då jag pratar endast svenska privat är tanken med detta att det ska låta som språket jag pratar för de andra länderna. Med andra ord så ska danskan i det här klippet låta som danska hos alla utom danskarna, eftersom det där gissningsvis kan låta som en dålig översättning.
Så är du finne, och inte tycker det låter som fullt korrekt finska, så ha gärna överseende med att jag normalt inte pratar ett ord finska, och så vidare!
IN ENGLISH:
Gurra speaks the five major Nordic languages (Norwegian, Icelandic, Danish, Finnish and Swedish) by reading one sports news on either language.
As I speak only Swedish private is the idea of this video to sound like the language I speak for the other countries. In other words, the Danish in this clip should sound like Danish in all but the Danes, as this where a guess might sound like a bad translation.
So are you from Finland and not think it sounds like quite correct in Finnish, so have forgive that I normally do not speak a word of Finnish, and so on!

"Welcome" in the Nordic languages: Swedish - Välkommen Norwegian - Velkommen Danish - Velkommen Icelandic - Velkominn Finnish - *TERVETULOA*
Yeah why is that is there more russian influence in finland?
@@mickeyamf It's not exactly Russian influence, since Finnish belongs to the same language group as Hungarian and Estonian, so called "Finno-Ugric" languages, whereas Russian is a Slavic language. But I get your point, Finnish is basically an Eastern language because the Finno-Ugric languages are derived from Uralic languages that were spoken somewhere in Middle-Russia, whereas the other Nordic languages belong to the Germanic family and are therefore more European.
@@ToastedCigar yes!
Yep Grisnackh sort of says it but all the other "Nordic" languages are descended from Old Norse (the language spoken by the Vikings) and so are part of the Germanic group within the Indo-European family (most of the languages spoken in Europe and South/Central Asia) but Finnish (along with Estonian, Hungarian and a few other localised dialects/languages) comes from the Finno-Ugric family of languages spoken in the Ural mountain regions of Russia, it's part of a completely different language family and came to Europe through the migration of an Ugric people from the Urals into Europe.
@@mickeyamf wtf it has nothing to do with Russian. The world is not black and white, it doesn't have to be either Swedish or Russian influence, it's FINNO-UGRIC.

To all people who still are wondering how Finnish is a Nordic language: because Finland is one of the Nordic countries. It has nothing to do with Scandinavia...
No no, Finnish is not a Nordic language at all, it's not even related to Nordic languages. Finnish is merely a language whitin the area of the Nordic countries, like Sami and Greenlandic.
I might be wrong but I think there isn't a language group called the Nordic languages. There are the North Germanic language group and the Finno-Ugric language group. The Nordic languages are in either one. I think the term "Nordic language" simply means a language that is spoken in a Nordic country.
Yes, you are wrong. Nordic language is a group which consists of Norwegian, Faroese, Icelandic, Danish and Swedish. But yes, SOME times the term North Germanic is used as well. Finnish has nothing in common with these languages, just because you're geographically situated in the same area it doesn't mean you can take this very precise term away from us. It's like saying that French is an African language because it's spoken there. "I'm Finnish, I wanna join." Go play with Estonia or something....
Yeah well that example was a little bit stupid. But North Germanic language group is the correct term to describe those languages you listed, not Nordic. Google a bit and you'll find that Finnish is included in Nordic languages. Nordic is like the cultural term that is not based on linguistic things. Like Scandinavian.
Finnish is not regarded a Nordic language in Scandinavia. There's even an academic discipline called "nordiska språk/nordiske språk/nordiske sprog" which includes Swedish, Norwegian, Danish and even Icelandic and Faroese. It's just another term for "North Germanic languages" from a linguistic point of view. In the general language however it could mean "languages spoken in the Nordic countries", so even Sami, Finnish and Greenlandic would be seen as Nordic languages in that context, but I've never heard it being used in that way. Besides the term "Scandinavian" is a "linguistic thing" too , since it describes three more or less mutually intelligible languages.
All Nordic languages: *sound like german and is an indo-european language* Finnish: We don't do that here
Haha
Maanantai, Tiistai Keskiviikko (german Mittwoch) Torstai Lauantai Sunnuntai Compare with Estonian: Esmaspäev Teispäev Kolmapäev Neljapäev And as my Estonian teacher said "The came the Swedes and ruined our fine system" Reede Laupäev Pühapäev (okay, this one is quite Balto-finnic) But yes, not counting a whole bunch of random words, Finnish is pretty much unintelligible for Indo-european outsiders
"Sound like German"? Nope... I've been learning Norwegian for about 7 months now and it's not really all that close to German (I'm Swiss German, so I daresay I'm fairly familiar with German)

Har du lärt dig lite finska nu, för uttalet har du tydligen redan länge haft! Jag tyckte du missade på bara två ord, där den svenska betoningen slog igenom, när finskan ALLTID betonar första stavelsen, även i uppenbara lånord, så det heter SLOvakia och KRItiikki. Jag blev riktigt imponerad! Tro inte att finska är så svårt som det påstås. Alltför många försöker poängtera krångligheter som inte alls behövs för att klara sig i de flesta sammanhang.

Sorry bruh
The trouble with Swedish is that it looks so easy and interesting and nice while learning, hey, Swedish grammar is easier than English. So, soon enough, you can read, write, you're coping well with the grammar, but then, you get blown away when you start listening to spoken Swedish on TV or in person. It's basically like: the narrator or TV anchor is speaking something on SVT, it's all nice, you understand everything, but then the guest starts talking and suddenly you have no idea what's going on.
That was like moving to Norway. Learned the language over a summer, and then I got to school...
That's true in any country, because it's about a cultivated standard language (pronunciation), that everybody in that country learns to understand in school, versus everyday speech that you learn in a certain limited social and local setting. You need perhaps a week or two "in the field" and then you'll be comfortable with the difference, which is more systematic than it sounds. Always learn standard language before you learn dialects or slang, if you want to make it easier for yourself.
radunMARSHAL Swedish, Danish, and Bokmål, are basically the different standardizations of the same dialect continuum, Nynorsk is part of those to some extent but it is also a bridge connecting the west nordic languages, Faroese, Icelandic, and the now extinct Norn and Greenlandic, with the East ones. A dialect continuum is a phenomenon that happens when one language expands (in this case the culprit is Old Norse) and the different settlements formed out of this expansion don’t lose contact with each other, so the little changes in grammar and vocabulary are shared among the towns and cities that are closer to each other, so for example you can go to the neighboring town that speaks different from your own, and understand pretty much everything, but the farther away you go from your hometown the harder it gets to you to understand, at times the dialect continuum get broken and the people of that town cannot understand the people in the next, at this point we can talk about two new languages forming out of the previous one, or simply because of geographical distances it gets naturally broken (that’s why Icelandic and Faroese are not connected to the Scandinavian dialect continuum). Lets not confuse it with regional accent, that’s like the previous step, for example English in the UK is very diverse despite the small territory that it’s formed of, and that’s because they have coexisted in a dialect continuum since the middle ages when the Anglo-Saxon invaded Britain, but in the USA, where English has been spoken half that time, somebody from Texas has a different accent from somebody from NY, but the difference is negligible, there’s a difference as large as that one between the English in Manchester and in Liverpool. On that regard there’re places where then standardization has won over regional dialects, like in France, where the Langue d’Oil and Langue d’Oc dialect continua have been replaced almost entirely by Parisian French (which is the basis for the standard metropolitan French and part of the Langue d’Oil dialect continuum). What has happen in Scandinavia though, since the standardization of the nordic languages, is that the regional variations have transformed closer to the standard of their country than before, Scanian for example, that linguistically speaking is closer to standard Danish than to standard Swedish or perhaps better said is a bridge between them, cause i’m afraid of hurting national sentiments), adopts innovations from Swedish more often now, cause their speakers are proficient in Swedish but not in Danish, in fact Scanian and Bornholmsk (in Denmark) are linguistically closer to each other than they are to either Danish or Swedish, and just the fact the fact that they ended in different countries has separated them. This is similar to Jämtmål, in that is closer to the Norwegian dialects than it is to the Swedish ones. There’s also the case of Gotland, where Old Gutnish was already distinct from Old West Norse (Icelandic, Faroese and Nynorsk) and Old East Norse (Swedish, Danish, Bokmål) but the constant exposure to Swedish made it transform alongside Swedish, this is similar to what happened to Galician and Catalan, that despite being closer to Portuguese and Occitan (almost extinct by now) respectively than to Spanish, both have adopted features and vocabulary that are originally from Spanish, but unlike these two languages Gutnish has been replaced almost completely by Swedish, albeit with a Gutnish twist of course.
A Swedish hello is hej. Actually spoken swedish hello: Tjena hallå Läget Nej men se goddag kära du Hej hej Haj ha h h hu (cough) Or if in the north: The sound of inhailing Or if in southern sweden Skåne: Haj haj hallå, hur e läget Haaalå för fan Dauws It would help if we Swedes stuck to using swedish lol
@@DNA350ppm that's not true for every country. In Russia, pretty much all language variability is gone, and I cannot tell if a person coming from Kaliningrad or Vladivostok or from anywhere in-between. Very-very rare local words or expressions can give it away, but not immediately

We may have different habits, language or heritage. But we have been here thousands of years together. So what is wrong with us today? I'm a proud Finn. Call us Mongolians or what ever but I still love you.
UnzkysGamertag I never heard about anyone claiming that Finns are substantially related to Mongolians. The Sami and the Finns have similar languages but I don't think they are related to Mongolians either.
amandus westin I'm a Finnish American (Username is not related to my heritage whatsoever) My grandfather (a Savonian) had to deal with a lot of people calling him a "China Swede" and a "roundhead" during the 1930's a lot, typically from employers that didn't like us because we made a workers union. He went home to fight in the continuation war and came back in the 50's. Sadly I can't speak a hint of Finnish and learning is damned hard, but I really want to be able to connect to him in that way. Plus I even have his rifle!
I think you have misunderstood my friend. We "fight" but it's all good. It's just for fun and it has alot of irony and sarcasm to it, and that's fun to. It's actually beacuse we can make these kind of jokes about each other without getting mad, that we have a good bond.

Finnish always puts stress on the first syllable of every word. You never put stress on anything else than the first syllable, unlike the other nordic languages. For example, you said kriTIIKkiä when it should be KRItiikkiä. / / Finskan betonar alltid den första stavelsen i varje ord, till skillnad från Svenska där det kan variera.
Windir true
Absolutely! And also - everything spoken in Finnish makes a short sound unless if there are two vowels behind each other (like "aa") which makes it a long vowel, or two consonants where you hold a small pause in between. I've noticed that this is notoriously hard for Scandinavians to grasp even though it's a very strict rule. With Gurra you hear words like "alussa" become "aalusa". That initial a should be very short, and between the two s one should enlengthen the s sound for a very brief but meaningful moment. He nailed the tone of voice though. Monotonic af :D
If you want to be very strict about stressing syllables then stress is on every odd syllable unless it is a compound word. Basically long words have major stress on first syllable but also minor stress on 3rd and 5th syllables.
Danish has stress on first syllable too.
Icelandic also has almost exclusively first-syllable stress I believe.

your icelandic is actually lowkey good!! i had low expectations because few people can actually speak it good!!
From a norwegian: My hat off to you, man. Very impressive, although there is a little bit of swedish tonality in there ;). Anyway, good job!
thanks a lot :)
This video is a gift to the world😭😍 thanks for showing how all of these beautiful languages are like !
+thepopking96 thanks a lot :)
This dude be starring in to my soul
I like how this video is 5 years old and all comments are few months old.
Hahaha I have NO IDEA what is happening 😂😂😂
@@Gustavgurrakarlsson algorithm goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
faroese is always left out of Nordic things :/
Cuz u belong to Denmark :p
+Greve von Dy it is still a Nordic language though, lol. I feel like many people do not know that it exists.
+Brittany Martin There is only one nordic language: Sami. So pls.
+Freyja Svensdóttir what does Faroe Islands have their own language? I've totally missed that 😳
Sami is not a nordic language at all. Learn the definition.
Javla fint! It continues to amaze me how different Finnish is to all the rest of the Nordics. Glad we learn Swedish at school!
Otso Karvinen That's because finnish actually is a completely different language, I wouldn't really call the other "languages" separate languages at all.

The Norwegian is a little «Svorsk», but still impressive.
Enig. Måten han uttalte "er" og "landslaget" på var veldig svensk.
And "levererte". Other than that I think he could have passed as a news reader from Østfold trying to hide his dialect.
@@aperson4826 haha enig

Just Amazing!
Honestly ... loved all of them ❤️
This is litelally great stuff! Adding Faroese wouldn't have hurt, but maybe I am asking to much :D
This is really good, i`m a danish person and your danish was really good too, you could hear a bit of the swedish accent, but it doesnt matter. You could basically travel in all the Nordic countries. Forsæt det gode arbejde!😄
Thanks a lot :)
Quite decent. I just stumbled upon this video so I haven't heard your voice before, but could tell from your Norwegian that you're a native Swedish speaker. Something about how you overenunciated words in ways not even news presenters do, and how some word endings that in Norwegian are basically always pronounced with silent consonants (for example in "landslaget"), really sounded like Swedish. After this realization I recognised some Swedish traits in your Danish too.
Well I say thanks :)
You're Danish sounds like a drunk Sønderjyske
@ಠ_ಠ oooohh burned
ಠ_ಠ You sound like a salty Swede.
Æ æ synnejye, å do vi it ku forstoo et oe a va æ soj, hvis do høe mæ snakk. Å stau ka do it æ heller! Mojn!
Norsken var ganske god, men kunne høre at du var fra Sverige. 👌🏼😋
No you could not, swedish people have no accent in any language we speak, fuck off fjällapa!

Albin indiid swiidish piiple häv nöu accent in äni länguich
As a Dane listening to his “Danish” I could hardly understand a word...
Samme her, lyder som om han er en svensker som taler svensk
as a swede listening to every dane i can hardly understand a word.
Synes nu han gjorde et godt forsøg. Det er virkelig svært at udtale dansk, da man udtaler ordene på en helt anden måde, og ligsom bruger ens "hals" forskelligt, i forhold til svensk og dansk
Det är klart ni inte förstår, ingen förstår danska, inte ens danskar...
I have no trouble understanding my Danish uncle and cousins. No I'm not Danish.
Du er faktisk god til at tale dansk, Keep up the good work
Man tackar :)
The Finnish was very good. I could understand everything, but some of the words were pronounced wrong. You gotta to be careful with double wovels/consonants. For example you pronounced aloittanut as alloitanut. There's no double L so the L ought to be shorter. Other examples: osakseen not oosakseen, esimerkiksi not essimerkiksi, teki not teeki, heti not heeti etc. :)
thanks a lot :)
Gurra Official You're welcome :)
finnish : such a difficult language !!!!!!!!
Yuge Yun the finnish was so off
Agreed with this! I understood everything as well, but some syllables were 'weighted' wrong so it sounded a little silly. Though I am still impressed by this! Very good for someone who is not a native speaker. :)
Haha, your Norwegian sounds so weird. You sound like every Swede in Norway :) The others sounds really good though.
haha thanks!
The might sound good but finnish was not that good
His Swedish is very good!
han kommer ju från sverige så inte så konstigt
Even so it had a distinct Swedish accent that most people here in eastern part of Norway just doesn't have.
the norwegian was really nice!! But i could hear a little swedish/icelandic accent when you were talking haha, but it was really good
Your Danish was actually quite good everything considered
Finnish languages is belongs to uralic languages just like Hungarian while the other scandinavian languages is belong to the germanic languages
MC.W TV It's still a nordic language, because Finland is a nordic country. 'Nordic' is a geological term, not a linguistic one.
www.phil.muni.cz/jazyk/files/uralic-migrations.pdf
Uralic? Finnic*
Vali Zeth No it’s actually Uralic. He is correct.
How strong is the russian influence on finnish
Du klarade finskan helt utmärkt med tanke på hur lite du (antagligen) vet om språket! Förväntade mig något mycket sämre. Stolt över dig! H: en finne från Östra rikshalvan.
man tackar så hjärtligt :)
were are faroese
Yea!
helt fantastisk!
Väl försökt! Säger jag som simultantolk i nordiska sammanhang.
I could tell you're Swedish by the way you pronounce the last syllables of some words in Norwegian ;)
Your Finnish sounds otherwise good, but you are pronouncing vowels either too long or too short, which makes it harder to understand. Good try though! :)
I am French and I don’t speak neither Swedish nor Finnish but I do agree
I’m a monolingual english speaker and I agree
I wonder if it ever gets easy
@@blockbasher6475 American, huh? Lol
No, Australian
As a Dane, I have to say that this is pretty impressive 👍 There's definitely an accent, but I understood everything he said. Well done sir!
One important thing when speaking finnish is to understand the difference between single and double letters. Your speech will sound a lot better and clearer if you concentrate on that more. There's no pronounciation in finnish. As an example when you said "osakseen" the first o was really long and sounded like if there were two os in the beginning like "oosakseen". Really good still.
To all the people who are saying 'your pronunciation was great but you can tell you're not a native speaker' can I say - WTF? Don't you get it? Everyone, yes even YOU, has an accent no matter how slight when you speak a second learned language. It's really annoying when Nordic people tell you that you have an accent when you try to speak their language especially when they are telling you that in English with an accent. The lack of self-awareness is infuriating.
Thanks a lot :)
You are right. Even inside one country there can be tens of different accents. I am Italian, and just in my small region I can tell if someone is from a city or from the countryside, from the Venice area or from the north.
Your mentality is wrong. Before you even start to learn a language you should learn how to pronounce the sounds. If you are lazy and you halfass your language learning that is your call. However, you should not blame others for pointing out that you do not speak properly. No matter where you live as a native, if you cannot pronounce your language properly they will send you to a special class that helps you improving your speach. If you actually put in the time you can speak, think and sound like a native. There should be no participation awards for the weak minded. Grow up and learn the actual language.
@@roberth4395 While I agree that a person should strive to learn how to pronounce another language correctly, some people have better capabilities in that regard than others, so no matter how hard they try, their lack of an "ear" dooms them to an accent. As to native speakers having various dialects being the equivalent of not learning their own language "properly" and needing to be sent to a special class- WTF??? While many countries may have one standardized pronunciation that is used officially because there is too much divergence between the various dialects, this does not mean that those other dialects are not speaking properly.
@@a.westenholz4032 Based on your surname, I presume you are german and speak mostly indo-european languages. The special class I mentioned is very common in my country. There are some sounds that are hard to pronounce for some people, like "r" s and there are some people who have other issues with their speech. Our schools provide free classes with a speech therapist. To help them learn how to speak properly. If you think this is a bad thing you should be ashamed of yourself and stay away from the education system as you are clearly not suited for the job. Finnish, Estonian, Hungarian etc are not indo-european languages. If you want to learn to speak a finno-ugric language, until you learn how to pronounce every character do not even try to proceed with learning. *In a finno-ugric language pronounciation is extremly critical as 99% of the words are pronounced as they are written.* Also the difference of words can be almost indistinguishable for the untrained non native speaker's ears. In finnish the difference between meeting and killing someone is 1 less double character. Tapan ( _to meet_ ), tapaan ( _to kill_ ). "I will meet your daughter tonight." Or "I will kill your daughter tonight." Kuusi ( _6_ ), kusi ( _piss_ ). "I would like to order 6 beer." or "I would like to order piss beer." Suddenly pronounciation matters. Hungarian is similar. If you pronounce a word incorrectly you can insult someone or for example örülök ≠ őrülök (first one means _I am glad_ , the second one means _I am literally going (asylum) insane_ ). I could go into a lenghty detailed comment, but if you want my time hire me and pay for it. Ps: excluding the nordic countries every european country have abismal language learning systems. Instead of going full pc "everyone is perfect the way they are" these countries should admit that they have no idea how to learn and teach languages and improve their ways. *Learning how to pronounce a sound perfectly is extremly easy. As long as you use the right methods to learn.*
Just to clear things up! Nordic countries = Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland and Faraoe Islands. Scandinavia = Norway, Sweden and Denmark. The name comes from the mountain chain "Skanderna" that runs through all three countries.
Faraoe Islands is danish though, doesn't count really.
+C. Rivalley I thought there were no mountains in Denmark?
Sindraug25 Danmarks högsta punkt är Yding Skovhöj/Möllehöj. (Ca 170 m. ö h.) Skanderna går mellan Sverige & Norge, men lite i Finland också.
Sindraug25 It kind of ends right in the very north of Denmark... it's not a proper "mountain" there.
Ah shit. Wrote in swedish. Good job.
Even though you can clearly hear that you're Swedish, you still kind of nailed the "news reading tone" there! I really enjoyed this video, thank you! Greetings from a Finn!
Kiitos very much Laura 🙏🏻
Your Finnish is really good! I'd want to point out the emphasis on the words, tho; in Finnish it's ALWAYS at the start of the word ^^
Well, his Norwegian is like a Swedish person trying really hard to speak Norwegian, but still his Swedish shines through...
That´s because he is a swedish try to speak norwegian...
Den søteste norske dialekten jeg har hørt! Du høres egentlig ut som en vestlending som prøver litt for hardt på østlandsdialekten, men et veeeeeldig bra forsøk!
+Telefonkatalogen haha tack så mycket!
Good job on the danish. U sound just like the news-anchor dude. The accent was slightly off but u chose a hard passage. 👏🏻 👏🏻
Thanks a lot Viktoria :)
Good job on the Icelandic!! I usually can't understand people that try to speak it but you did great!!
Thanks a lot :)
Asså gud vad duktig!!!
Man tackar :)
Your finnish is pretty good actually! Tone of your voice is just correct, which is very rare to hear from non-finnish person. Some sentences and different words should be pronounced slightly slower and longer way, but overall very good ! At first, i tought i'm hearing real finnish newsreader, haha :D
I like the tie change, subtle but still very nice
I don't know what is harder understanding 5 languages that sound similar to each other or understanding ones that are different either way props to you for understanding them all
