Pikku Prinssi, in Finnish.
I bought this book in Helsinki, Finland.
What is Finland? A Baltic or Scandinavian country? They speak two official languages here: Finnish & Swedish, besides other European languages. The name Finland is a Swedish name; in Finnish, it is Suomi. But Helsinki is a Finnish name; in Swedish, it is Helsingfors.
Finnish language (Suomi / Suomen Kieli) almost has no family in Europe, besides Baltic languages, Karelian, and Hungarian. It is an Uralic language of the Finnic branch. Finnish is one of the two official languages of Finland (the other being Swedish). In Sweden, both Suomen Kieli and Meänkieli are official minority languages. The Kven language, which like Meänkieli is mutually intelligible with Finnish, is spoken in the Norwegian county Troms og Finnmark by a minority group of Finnish descent.
