Карельский язык, Karjalan kieli, Karelian Language ( Finnish subtitles ) READ DESC! (Viena dialect)

Credits to: Helsingin yliopisto I did not make this video, I published it here to make it easily accessable. Original Video Another video for the Livvi dialect, which is what most Karelians speak, the dialect here is a bit more rare. Also you can watch what the Tver Karelian dialect sounds like! Another close language to Finnish (Meänkieli) INFORMATION ON THE VIENA DIALECT This is in the Viena karelian dialect, closely related to Finnish while this is understadable by nearly 90%, the Viena karelian dialect is a smaller percentage of the whole Karelian language, despite being fully understandable by Finns (except for some Russian vocabulary, and some own words), it is still closer to Livvi, which is why its better to be called language. The Livvi dialect which is the largest dialect is no longer fully understandable. You can see Livvi karelian here: The reason viena is so understandable to Finnish people is years of mutual contact and Finns travelling to Viena Karelia, the majority of Karelian speakers though instead speak Livvi karelian which is more divergent from Finnish. Here is an example of Livvi: Vahnoin fatieroin hinnat pyzyttih endizelleh muijal muas – piälinnan alovehel net iellehgi nostih Kiindehistövälittäjien kauti piettih vahnoin fatieroin kauppoi läs viittyvuittii enäm mullostu. Vahnoin fatieroin hinnat kylmykuul nostih piälinnan alovehel 6 prosental saman aijan mullozih hindoih verraten, nenga sanou Statistiekkukeskus. Muijal muas hinnat pyzyttih mullozien tazol. Also please do not claim “Russified Finnish“ Here is a very short explenation: 1 they lack Swedish influence 2 they diverged from a different group of Finnics and not from the same groups as the Finnish language did 3 ščž did not come from Russian 4 Livvi dialect is more influencd by Veps than Russian Собственно карельское наречие Viena karelian Vienan karjala Vienakši
