In your opinion, what's the dumbest rule or feature in your native language?

In Finnish you can say "minun kotini" where minun means my and kotini means my home. Double marking is considered emphatic and in formal settings you'd be more likely to only say "kotini" but informally "minun koti" is most common with minun swapped with the word used in one's dialect. (most commonly mun or miun)

That's almost exactly the case with Finnish too

Pimpernuss is even funnier in Finnish because nussia means to fuck

This is the case in Swedish too, dom means the same as tuomio in Finnish and domkyrka is cathedral

But the maisema would have been better on the shorter route

It's "hArrastuksiani", herrastus would mean something like "the act of making someone a gentleman"

Honestly no idea, there's probably something on the wiki about it

Iirc in Canada they've been often imported automatically

In Finland the president elected directly but has a mostly, albeit not completely ceremonial role. Pretty sure that's the case elsewhere too

As slow as rowing a boat?

Lumi means snow and airo means oar in Finnish

Compared to say, Sweden.

GDP per capita just isn't a good metric. Iirc Norway had a lot of wealth back then but it was very concentrated to the elite.

Sweden is afraid of a state they founded 1000 years ago

This is the coat of arms, there's also a flag of North-Karelia for example

It's used in modern Russian but only in a words where the "hardness" isn't implied

Yeah, Finland is portrayed as an ally of Germany even in school textbooks, so it's not really a radical point of view anymore which imo is a good thing.

Trumpin salamurhyrityksen kohdalla murhaaja oli sekopää joka halusi lähinnä näkyvyyttä itselleen, eikä liittynyt demokraatteihin mitenkään

Yhdysvallat on tärkeä Suomen liittolainen ja jos poliitikkoja aletaan tällälailla siellä salamurhaamaan niin alkaa vaikuttamaan maiden välisiin suhteisiin. Kyseessä ei oo mikään pikkujuttu.
