Finland Swedish (Swedish: finlandssvenska Finnish: suomenruotsi) is a general term for standard Finland Swedish and the closely related cluster of dialects of Swedish spoken in Finland by the Swedish-speaking population as their mother tongue. For the most part these dialects and the dialects spoken in Sweden are mutually intelligible although some archaic Swedish dialects in Ostrobothnia are practically unintelligible to Swedish-speaking people in southern Finland (and in Sweden).
