It is nice to be excited about a book I have to read for work.
This one is about #LinguisticLandscapes in the city of #Turku in Finland.

@waeiski Sounds interesting, indeed. Based on my limited knowledge of Finnish, the lokal Turun murre seems to be even on top position of the safety instruction sign. Do they compare the impact of the landscape for all three Finnish/Sweedish and the local Finnish dialect? Might be interesting if the same landscape were percepted in different ways. Especially with a language making such a big deal of very precisely indicating spatial relationships like Finnish.
