LaraHastings to WHERE?

sisternyabinghi if you even dont knoe the right word, for our non existing country , stay where u are. i have sami roots in the family an people like you have destroyed everithing. the woods in finland look like not existing anymore, like the grey hairs of old men. i feel personally hurt when you name this beautiful land lapland.. you and other people and tourists with their big money purse are polluting the sea, the land and everithing. now its just the tourism wheremany people life fromin the baltics.when i seee how they spill their dirt from ther plasicd boats i ave no appetite for any food.

sisternyabinghi my grandparents were fishermen and i know what i am talking about

sisternyabinghi don t get me wrong but wheni hear the la...word, i am getting angry. this actually doesnt mean i am agaist you, but i ve been trough such a mass of skit, that i cannot stand to hera wrrite or even speak it

sisternyabinghi i ve checked my family chronicle now since ca. 10 years and i know who i am ,. all of my foreparents must have been varjjatsapmelaš, means from varangerbotn. you have been there? then why this word??

hahahaha, good one!

Jari Tuomola so did i the first time i heard this

I think it is because everyone is a bit envious of Jews :) Don't worry.

Hanna Laakso also in sweden, norway and parts of the kola peninsula canada and alaska. and spreaded round the earth when the bad things started, also my family , my grandfather from the fathers side was killed by the nazi in 1941

Hanna Laakso well, there is several languages in sapmi, as northern sami, umesamish, aarjelsamegiella, inarisamegiella, kildinsamegiella, tersamegiella etc etc, so it is possible when a northern sami meets a kildinsame, they will not understnd ech other..also the sami languages are badly outnumbered, i mean the people who speak it, nowadays is so many people, who recover their sami-roots , there is not just 100000 sami living in the world, its much more! i know it because in canada, alaska, tere is also many of us, we have millions of cousins in the world, so dont fear and beloeve the sami is dying out! this is a racistical misinformation to weak up our resisance

+Anna Stroz Sången heter "Svanar kommer" och är nog en hyllning till vårvintern. Mars månad heter "njukca-mannu" på nord samiska och det är då svanar börjar komma in.

bearmanmr sapmi!

I was born as a Sami in Guovdageaidnu, but I was moved around to bulgaria, and now scotland,as my father is part scottish, but I miss the culture of the Sami so much, but I have bought a čiehgahpir to remind me of my origins and the beautiful culture. I am trying to look for more genuine clothing as I want to feel the magic of the clothing. I am also wanting to learn Northern Sami as I have pretty much forgotten it. If possible, could you tell me about what it is like up there now?

I agree with you except for the part where you said your clothes can't be worn by other people. Anyone can wear anything, you don't own fashion. I won't get pissed at you if you wear clothes from my culture, I would expect you'd extend the same courtesy to others.
