Languages of Sweden
The Language Law of 2009 recognizes Swedish as the "main" and "common" language of society as well as being the official language in "international contexts".
Kven people
In the past, the Kven language spoken in Norway was considered a dialect of Finnish language, much like the Finnic Meänkieli language spoken in northern Sweden. Today, both are officially recognized minority languages in the areas where the languages are spoken. The Finnish, Meänkieli and Sami all are officially recognized minority languages in the Kiruna Municipality in Sweden.
