 * I'd say that meänkieli is part of the northern dialects (pohjoismurteet) of finnish. The northern dialects are more west finnish origin than east. --Icepenguin 12:06, 28 October 2006 (UTC)


 * I'd say there is no real need for this page, since Karelian is a language, and dialects northern, western and easter could and should be referred from the finnish language page. meankieli, is definitly not eastern. I can't be bothered to find out how to AfD a page nowadays. 85.156.70.176 (talk) 22:41, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

I'd say there should be an own area for Kotka and it's area,Kymi, the dialect spoken there is quite different from Savonnian and Karelian. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.27.82.167 (talk) 16:01, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
