Languages of Sweden
In 2009, the Riksdag passed the Language Law recognizing Swedish as the "main" and "common" language of society as well as being the official language in "international contexts", the five national minority languages, and Swedish sign language .
Finnish language
Finnish (, or "suomen kieli" ) is a Finnic language spoken by the majority of the population in Finland and by ethnic Finns outside Finland. Finnish is one of the two official languages of Finland (the other being the Swedish language); Finnish is also an official minority language in Sweden. In Sweden, both Standard Finnish and Meänkieli, a Finnish dialect, are spoken. The Kven language, a dialect of Finnish, is spoken in Northern Norway by a minority group of Finnish descent.
