Languages in Karelia

Everybody understands and speaks Russian, although many are bilingual in Karelian, Finnish, and, on smaller scale, Veps. A traveler could get by with only knowledge of Finnish, as many native ethnic Russians understand a good deal of the language. Basic English is widely understood by young people. Swedish is relatively popular foreign language too.
