Hi Mr. Nesbit, now I've found out more about the Finnish stuff, which you wondered about. Mr. Warburton, on the Nordic Society Manchester Facebook-page, explains it like this: Nik Warburton Finnish is in no way related to Norwegian, Swedish, & Danish – they are all Northern Germanic languages – they all come from Old Norwegian, whereas Finnish is part of them Finno-Ugric language group as it closely relates to Estonian & Hungarian. (See also attached screen-shot). Maybe it's easer for you to understand, if a Brit explains about this? I don't know why you brought up the Finnish-stuff, since I'm not from Finnland. Finns are perhaps a bit serious people, so they perhaps get mad if I represent them, (since I'm from Norway), so for further info about Finnland please contact e.g. Finnish Embassy in London: http://www.finemb.org.uk/public/Default.aspx?culture=en-US&contentlan=2 I'm from the south of Norway, which is about as far from the Finnish border, as the UK is away from Africa. It's true we had some Finnish immigrants there, hundreds of years ago. But they all speak Norwegian and dress Norwegian now, so they are impossible to single out, for other people now. I've only heard one Finnish word there, all my life, and that was 'Satan Perkele', which someone said, when i went to Upper Secondary-school, meaning 'Satan in Hell', I think. In Oslo, (where I lived for 15 years), I never heard any Finnish. I think that if you ask 1000 people in Oslo if they speak Finnish then maybe zero or only one person is going to say he does. I put Langauges as a key-skill on my CV, since I live in the UK and speak native Norwegian. In wouldn't have put languages on my Norwegian CV, but both the jobs I've had in the UK have been language-jobs, so I think Language is a key-skill for me, when I live in the UK. I can't say that you have explained why you started picking on my because I didn't speak Finnish. You are the CV-expert. I can't say that you make it clear what was wrong on the CV, about Finnish. I think it's strange that Ingeus first scream up about Finnish and then are vague about what was wrong on the CV. Please be clear! Yours sincerely, Erik Ribsskog enda mer fra nordic society facebook.JPG 143K
