Swedish, a Northern Germanic language, is spoken by an estimated 10 million people in Sweden and along the coast and islands of Finland. Norwegians and Danes share many words used by Swedes, so all three countries can understand each other. Besides its descent from North Germanic roots, Swedish is also a descendent of Old Norse, the language of the ancient Vikings. Most Swedish speakers use Standard Swedish, which is recognized as the national language. It arose in the 19th century from the Central Swedish dialects. By the 20th century, it was firmly established. Thus, uniformity and standardization in the spoken and written forms of the language arise from standard Swedish. However rural variations still exist, originating from older regional dialects, and some of these dialects are not intelligible to Standard Swedish, because their vocabulary and grammar are so different. The small numbers of people speaking these dialects have low social mobility because they remain confined to their linguistic regions.
