Bonus Finnish Fun!


The word for "baggage" in Finnish is "matkatavarat." I'll concede that it might not actually sound ridiculous if you pronounce it in the Finnish manner, however that might go. But if you pronounce all those A's like an American, it is no end of fun when you're stuck in the Helsinki airport. In Swedish "baggage" is apparently "bagage" which is just no fun at all.
