Just saw this weird headline. It is truly Scandinavian

Quote:
A Finnish man has been arrested in Thailand, suspected of the murder of a Swedish man in Norway

Denmark instead of Thailand would have made it more thematically accurate. Very Happy

Yeah. Since Finland is involved I guess it's Nordic, not Scandinavian. Scandinavia is made up of Sweden, Norway and Denmark while the Nordic Countries are made up of Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Iceland, Finland and Faroe Islands.

The headline reads like a joke Razz

Geographically Scandinavia is Norway, Sweden and Denmark.

There must be some kind of a cultural heritage.
Language wise: If I hear Danish, sometimes it sounds like Dutch or German.
Swedish and Norwegian are incomprehensible.

That's because you speak with porridge down your throats just like the Danes speak with potatoes in their mouth.
