#Nordic/#Scandinavian
You answered your own question - Finland is a Nordic country, not Scandinavian
Finland is Nordic now? I was told - by Scandinavians - that Finland is absolutely NOT Scandinavian
The Nordics are going all in on Greenland.

Norway sent two (2) guys and the Swedish guys are unarmed

Still, both are better than the non-existing contribution from Finland

Maybe using Nordic & Scandinavian interchangeably when maybe they shouldn’t?

Yes but Nordic is different to Scandinavian

Not to mention.Finland is Nordic, neither Scandinavian nor Baltic.

Also, someone has beaten a Scandinavian country in a winter war; Sweden beat Denmark in 1471. In October. Which is very much winter in Sweden.

The level of pedantry on this app is amateurish, smdh.

Per the “the Nordic Home” art exhibit I went to last week, “Scandinavia” is smaller than Nordic. 🤷‍♀️
(I was not aware this was a drawn distinction until then either, but apparently Iceland and Finland are Nordic but not Scandinavian)

Our Scandinavian deli in Berkeley (Nordic House) closed down at the beginning of '22 so was a little outside Claire's parameters, but damn they had the best roast beef sandwich in town as great candies/groceries.

Two modest but appealing riffs on 80s genre films — one horror and one sci-fi — and two Scandinavian dramas from the Criterion Channel's Nordic Noir collection.

Minnesota has about 1.6 million people of Nordic or Scandinavian descent and about 260,000 people of Somali descent.

I wonder why MAGA only attack the latter? 🤔

(The tradition in Scandinavian, Nordic, and Baltic Lutheranism is that congregation sits for the hymns, unlike in Anglophone Christianity.)

Speaking of cool. What's that music you posted? I like it. It's like Nordic, Scandinavian chanting.

Land of Sin movie review & film summary (2026)
If you’re a fan of Scandi crime shows (often referred to as “nordic noir”), you generally know what you’re going to get: Dark, brooding protagonists with seedy pasts, small Scandinavian towns bubbling with corruption underneath, mistreated youth, dead bodies floating in rivers or fjords. The action is as understated as the acting, the cinematography a muted array of whites (if it’s snowy) and browns (if it’s not), and the plotting a head-scratching series of complexities.

Love your Nordic Mix! Here's the double cowl I knit with lots of little Scandinavian stitch patterns, fingering weight yarn, 7 colors, knit as a long tube.

While a top official in Norwegian public health tweet out misinformation in efforts to pathologize people who take precautions against respiratory diseases, this is the material reality that the Norwegian and Nordic left willfully ignore in their adherence to Scandinavian conformity.
"Workers in jobs classified as high risk for COVID exposure had a 44% higher likelihood of developing long COVID than those in low-risk occupations...
The highest-risk occupations included health care and social workers, teachers, retail workers, transport workers..."
Workplace exposures tied to higher risk of long COVID

NORDIC NOIR 🖤 Coming to the Criterion Channel in January!

One of my favorite things is when Criterion shines a spotlight on a genre/movement I had literally no idea was a thing.

My sister taught a class on how to make a Yule Goat. I helped write up the tutorial and we had so much fun with friends!
