From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kielisoturi, in English "Language Warrior", writes texts to support freedom of language for Finns. In Finland, there are five languages in the constitution. The constitution does not know anything about English, Russian or Estonian which are very important today.
Kielisoturi wants to harmonize the language policy of Finland to the Swedish policy. Kielisoturi does not want to create any obstacles to Swedes, but just mutually equal and fair treatment of the major languages of the neighbouring countries.
Inside Finland, Kielisoturi strives for freedom in languages, i.e. that all Finns can study or not study any languages according to their own choices. In practice, mandatory Swedish and requiring Swedish in so many occasions in Finland is foolish and also a racistic crime against the EC directive 2000/43.
Kielisoturi believes that in Finland, Finnish language, being the mother tongue of 92%, and well-understood by almost everybody, shall be mandatory. Then Kielisoturi believes that English is the best choice for foreign languages that everyone must learn, too, the more the better.
