 | | Mandatory Swedish is a compulsorary school subject in Finland, wherein the Swedish language is taught. |
 | | The official term is toinen kotimainen kieli in Finnish, or det andra inhemska språket in Swedish, which would translate to "second domestic language". |
 | | Among Finns the derogatory term pakkoruotsi, literally "compulsory Swedish", or even "forced Swedish", is often used in reference to this imposed tuition, revealing the loaded bitterness in what is perceived as a Swedish yoke. |
