>expecting your average Finn to be fluent in English
I would have known you’re Americans even if it weren’t a flag board.

>>211689445
even though scandinavians have no local culture so every single of them knows english perfectly

>>211689477
Swedes and Danes do. Finns don’t.

Don't fuck with Abdi white boi

>>211689505
You have no idea what you're talking about.

>>211689649
The average Swede/Dane is fluent in English. An average Finn isn’t. That’s why >>211689602 had to ask. Work on your reading comprehension.

I got scared when anglo tourist asked for directions

>>211689681
I didn't "have to ask". I did it to be nice.

Going across the Atlantic to visit fucking Finland, I don’t believe you

>>211689708
You did have to ask. See >>211689683. Most Europeans can’t for the life of them hold a conversation in English. The Netherlands and Scandinavia (Finland isn’t Scandinavia alshyallu) are the exceptions.

i did though

>>211689845
This was not my experience except for in Estonia but I just spoke Russian instead of English.

Um actually
>puhutte englantia
You speak english (formal/plural)
>puhutteko englantia
Do you speak english (formal/plural)
>puhutko englantia
Do you speak english (informal/singular)

>>211689845
>Most Europeans can’t for the life of them hold a conversation in English
That's not really true Hansi. Southern Europeans struggle a lot with learning foreign languages but even there the younger generations will have serviceable English skills. Finnish people aren't retarded they speak English fine just with a strong accent because the languages are very different.
