What are the biggest differences between the Nordic countries?北欧国家之间最大的差异是什么?
评论翻译Per, Son of JørgenWhereas the Scandinavian languages -- Swedish, Danish, and Norwegian -- are mutually intelligible, Finnish and Icelandic are different. Finnish is in a completely separate family of languages (the Finno-Ugric, to be exact). Icelandic is similar to Scandinavian languages but branched off from Old Norse long ago that I as a Norwegian cannot understand it.Iceland is tiny. Norway has oil. Denmark is flat. Sweden was neutral during the war (you know the one), and we're still a little suspicious of those guys.Denmark, Sweden, and Finland are EU members. Norway and Iceland are not.Ski jumping is not a popular sport in Denmark. Nor in Iceland. Who knows why?All five countries have similar standards of living, and roughly similar political, health-care, and education systems. If you talk to people on the streets you'd be hard pressed to find significant differences in worldviews or political outlook from one country to the next.斯堪的纳维亚语——瑞典语、丹麦语和挪威语——可以相互理解，而芬兰语和冰岛语则不同。芬兰语属于一个完全独立的语系(确切地说，是芬兰语-乌戈尔语)。冰岛语与斯堪的纳维亚语相似，但很久以前就从古挪威语中分离出来了，作为挪威人，我听不懂冰岛语。冰岛很小。挪威有石油。丹麦平坦。瑞典在战争期间是中立的(你知道的)，我们仍然对瑞典那帮家伙有点怀疑。丹麦、瑞典和芬兰是欧盟成员国。挪威和冰岛则不是。跳台滑雪在丹麦不是一项受欢迎的运动，在冰岛也不受欢迎，谁知道是为什么？这五个国家的生活水平相似，政治、医疗和教育体系也大致相似。如果你在街上和人们交谈，你很难发现一个国家和另一个国家在世界观或政治观点上有很大的不同。Erik JohannessenNot a lot of specifics inthe question, so I’ll just mention a few things that I notice are different.Norway has a large petroleum sector, unlike the other Nordic countries. Even though Denmark has a petroleum industry, it’s dwarfed by comparison to Norway’s. Norway also has a lot of fjords and valleys that you won’t see as much (or at all) in the other Nordic countries. We beat everyone else at winter sports. Especially the Swedes.Sweden has a very robust and dynamic heavy industry sector (especially for the size of its population), including the manufacture of cars and fighter jets, something the other Nordic countries don’t have. They also have (arguably) the most successful gaming industry in the Nordic region (see DICE).Denmark is very flat, in contrast to the other Nordic countries. You’ll find no large mountains there. You’ll find LEGO’s though, and beer. They’re not good at winter sports like Norway, Sweden and Finland.Finland has a lot of lakes, and also a few IT companies (looking at you, Nokia). Their education system is also said to be one of the best in the world, and number 1 among the Nordic countries.Iceland is an island, unlike the other Nordic countries. They also have volcano’s (or at least a volcano), which we don’t have in the other Nordic countries. Shares Denmark’s lack of aptitude in winter sports. They’ve proven to be good at football though.问题中没有太多的细节，所以我只能说一些我注意到的不同之处。与其他北欧国家不同，挪威拥有庞大的石油产业。尽管丹麦有石油工业，但与挪威相比就相形见绌了。挪威也有很多峡湾和山谷，你在其他北欧国家看不到。我们在冬季运动中打败了其他所有人。尤其是打败了瑞典人。瑞典有非常强大和充满活力的重工业(特别是它的人口规模)，包括汽车和战斗机的制造，这是其他北欧国家所没有的。他们还拥有北欧地区最成功的游戏产业。与其他北欧国家相比，丹麦地势非常平坦。你在那里找不到大山。不过你会在那找到乐高和啤酒。他们不像挪威、瑞典和芬兰那样擅长冬季运动。芬兰有很多湖泊，也有一些IT公司(比如诺基亚)。他们的教育体系据说是世界上最好的之一，在北欧国家中排名第一。冰岛是一个岛屿，不像其他北欧国家。他们有火山(至少有一座)，这是我们其他北欧国家没有的。他们和丹麦一样，在冬季运动方面缺乏天赋。但事实证明他们很擅长足球。Lyonel PeraboI’d say that the biggest difference is the landscape and nature, really.Denmark has flatness, fields, a few forests, beaches and scattered (flat) islands and skerries.Sweden has flatness, deep and thick forests, rivers and, in the inland, hills and mountains.Norway has fjords, mountains, valleys, waterfalls, forests, an uncountable amount of rocky islands and very little flatness.Iceland has lava-fields, fjords, glaciers, mountains, sea-cliffs, not much forest at all and a few odd volcanoes.The Faroe Islands have green grass, green hills, green, bulky islands, rocky outposts and no forests whatsoever.Finland has flatness, an interminable thick forest, maze-like archipelagoes and an uncountable amount of lakes.Hope this helped!我想说最大的不同是风景和自然，真的。丹麦地势平坦，有田野、少量的森林和海滩，还有零星的岛屿和斯凯瑞群岛。挪威有峡湾、山脉、山谷、瀑布、森林，还有数不清的岩石岛屿，几乎没有平坦的地方。瑞典地势平坦，有茂密的森林和河流，内陆还有丘陵和山脉。冰岛有熔岩田、峡湾、冰川、山脉、海崖，没有多少森林，有一些奇怪的火山。法罗群岛有绿色的草，绿色的山，绿色的庞大的岛屿，没有森林。芬兰地势平坦，有一望无际的茂密森林，迷宫般的群岛和数不清的湖泊。希望能帮到你！Profile photo for Louie PoppWhich Nordic country is the most developed?There are several different answers to this question. All the Nordic countries are very closely the same on subjects like infrastructure, separation of church and state, division of wealth, standard of living, technological development, politics etc but some are stronger than others on certain areas, all of which can be considered a trait of a developed country.HistoryDenmark has arguably the longest and greatest history of all the Nordic countries. Still bearing the oldest country flag in the world, which was later adopted by the other Nordic nations, despite a very tumultuous millennium (being at war with Sweden a record-setting 27 times) is proof of that. Having reigned over large parts of Germany, Sweden, Norway and Britain, Denmark sets itself above as the Nordic powerhouse of history and European influence.北欧哪个国家最发达?这个问题有几个不同的答案。所有北欧国家在基础设施、政教分离、财富分配、生活水平、技术发展、政治等方面都相似，但有些国家在某些领域比其他国家更强，所有这些都可以被视为发达国家的特征。历史丹麦可以说是所有北欧国家中历史最悠久、最伟大的国家。它现在仍然挂着世界上最古老的国旗，后来被其他北欧国家采用，经历了一个动荡的千年(与瑞典创纪录的27次交战)，这就是证据。丹麦曾统治过德国、瑞典、挪威和英国的大部分地区，是北欧历史和欧洲影响力的重镇。WealthNorway is by far the most developed country economically, as Lyonel pointed out. The GDP of all Nordic countries aside from Norway averages at $60k, while Norway peaks at a stunning $100k, vastly influenced by their oil.SociallyAlong with the largest Nordic population comes great culture. Sweden spit out more one-hit-wonders and superstars in a week, than all the other Nordics combined do in a year.EducationDespite being listed as the 43rd in expenditures on education, Finland is ranking the 2nd best in the entire world when it comes to educating their citizens. Finland is the most efficient and developed country in the world when it comes to education. Finnish students go to school about 5 hours a day and have very little homework. Finland definitely cracked the code to the optimal education system.For reference Denmark is ranked #18 on the global education expenditures list, Iceland #21, Norway #28 and Sweden #32. The government spending on education isn't at all reflected in the quality of students.财富正如莱昂内尔指出的那样，挪威是迄今为止经济上最发达的国家。除挪威外，所有北欧国家的GDP平均为6万美元，而挪威的峰值为惊人的10万美元，他们的石油有极大的影响。社会随着北欧人口的增多，伟大的文化也随之而来。瑞典在一周内出现的昙花一现的明星和超级明星就比所有其他北欧国家一年的总和还要多。教育尽管芬兰在教育支出方面排名第43位，但在公民教育方面排名世界第二。芬兰是世界上教育效率最高的发达国家。芬兰学生每天上学大约5个小时，作业很少。芬兰无疑掌握了最佳教育系统的秘钥。冰岛排名21，挪威排名28，瑞典排名32。他们在教育上的投入根本没有反映在学生的素质上。Petter Brenna RianWhat do Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland think of each other?I’m a Norwegian, so lemme tell ya what I think of my neighbors.Sweden - There is an odd charm to this country and their people. They speak in a soft, charming tone that I comprehend. We are similar in so many ways. I grew up watching Swedish television. I love their humor. I even travel there to buy cheap alcohol. Yet, I can’t help but ridicule and make fun of them.Denmark - I feel like they are our mentally challenged cousin. Their language is utterly incomprehensible. They talk as if they are gagging on vomit. As far as I know, they can’t even understand each other. But, their cities look better than ours. Also, they do sandwiches better than us. They also seem somewhat more cultured and cosmopolitan.Finland - unpredictable drunkards whom you’ll find sleeping on the kitchen table in the morning.So Sweden is that cool brother, and also the cute girl next door whom you have a crush on. The Dane is the loud cousin who speaks incomprehensibly, but you like having them around because they are entertaining. And, the Finn is the half-naked drunkard sleeping in the corner.瑞典、挪威、丹麦和芬兰如何看待彼此?我是个挪威人，所以让我告诉你我怎么看待我的邻居。瑞典这个国家和他们的人民有一种奇怪的魅力。他们说话的声调柔迷人，我能理解他们的语言。我们有很多相似之处。我是看着瑞典电视长大的。我喜欢他们的幽默。我甚至去那里买便宜的酒。然而,我忍不住嘲笑他们,取笑他们。丹麦我觉得他们是我们的弱智表弟。他们的语言完全无法理解。他们说起话来好像被呕吐物呛住了似的。据我所知，他们甚至不能听懂对方。但是，他们的城市看起来比我们的好。而且，他们的三明治做得比我们好。他们似乎也更有教养，更国际化。芬兰鲁莽的，不可预测的酒鬼，早上你会发现他们睡在厨房的桌子上。瑞典是一个很酷的哥哥，也是你喜欢的邻家可爱的女孩。丹麦人是一个嗓门很大的表姐，说话总是让人听不懂，但你喜欢他们在你身边，因为他们很有趣。而芬兰人是睡在角落里的半裸醉鬼。Søren BlaabjergWhat really differentiates a Dane from a Norwegian and a Swede in terms of mentality, culture and behavior?Danes are in some way paradoxical. They are very aware of being special compared to other countries, but they deny being proud of anything. If you are proud of something, you better hide it. Being modest is what danes are most proud of. They welcome foreigners, but only if they do their best to assimilate as quickly as possible, and it takes at least two or three generations to be accepted as real danes.Danes think their flag is the most beautiful in the world and they use it frequently but not in a nationalistic or militant manner. Danes are easy going, like partying and celebrating a lot of different traditional events. They like joking and laughing a lot.Swedes are compared to Danes much more formal and serious. To be correct in all aspects of life is important to them. Partly because of strict restrictions on purchasing alcohol, many swedes travel to Denmark, when they want to have some fun. Swedes consider themselves to be more internationally orientated than Denmark, but they are more nationslistic and proud of their country's status as a modern technologically advanced and wealthy state, which can also be a role model for other countries in all aspects, not least moral aspects.Like Denmark and Sweden Norway is a country with a strong feeling of national identity. Norwegians are typically more proud of being norwegians than danes are of being danes and swedes are of being swedes. On the whole they are more puritan than the other scandinavians. They love sport, fishing and outdoor activities. Like swedes norwegians like to travel to Denmark, when they wish to have some fun and drink a lot of alcoholic beverages. By the way danes, norwegians and swedes usually understand each others quite well, and there are a lot of mixed marriages across the borders and waters dividing the three countries Denmark, Sweden and Norway.在心理、文化和行为方面，丹麦人与挪威人和瑞典人真正的区别是什么?丹麦人在某种程度上是矛盾的。与其他国家相比，他们非常清楚自己的特殊之处，但他们否认为任何事情感到骄傲。如果你为某件事感到骄傲，最好隐藏起来。谦虚是丹麦人最引以为傲的事。丹麦人欢迎外国人，但前提是他们要尽最大努力尽快融入丹麦社会，但要被真正的丹麦人所接受，至少需要两三代人的时间。丹麦人认为他们的国旗是世界上最美丽的，他们经常使用国旗，但不是出于民族主义或军事目的。丹麦人很随和，喜欢参加派对和庆祝许多不同的传统活动。他们喜欢开玩笑和大笑。与丹麦人相比，瑞典人要正式和严肃得多。对他们来说，在生活的各个方面都正确是很重要的。部分原因是由于对购买酒类的严格限制，许多瑞典人在想找点乐子的时候会去丹麦旅游。瑞典人认为自己比丹麦人更国际化，但他们更加民族主义，并为自己的国家作为一个现代技术先进和富裕国家的地位感到自豪，这也可以成为其他国家在各个方面的榜样，尤其是在道德方面。像丹麦和瑞典一样，挪威是一个有着强烈民族认同感的国家。总的来说，他们比其他斯堪的纳维亚人更加清教徒化。他们喜欢运动、钓鱼和户外活动。像瑞典人一样，当挪威人想要玩得开心并喝很多酒精饮料的时候，就喜欢去丹麦旅游。顺便说一下，丹麦人、挪威人和瑞典人通常彼此很了解，在丹麦、瑞典和挪威这三个国家，有很多跨国婚姻。
