Olin äidillä lounaalla kun sisko tuli sinne lapsineen pääsiäiseksi. Oltiin lähdössä ulos ja
Minä: Hei äiti, mä unohdin veskani olohuoneeseen, voisitko tuoda sen?
Siskonlapsi 4v: !!! 😱 onko mummi enon äiti?! Mä en tiennyt, et enolla on äiti!

The "Americanization of the global internet" post and slow deterioration of local native culture gave me an idea: many users don't even know there is native language communities on this website, so if you know of a regional group/"subculture" on Tumblr, reblog/comment with the tags they use so people can find them and connect with other folks from their countries or speakers of a language they'd like to learn
I will try to update this post with every new addition to hopefully make a comprehensive list of Tumblr regional communities
Edit July 29th: the post has reached a point where Tumblr won't let me add any more links, so from now on all tags are plain text to make it fair
The list so far:
Europe
• Czech
#česky, #hezky česky - general Czech language posts, frequently featuring user-written poetry, art, sometimes politics and current events, warning: often contains vent posts
#čumblr - Czech but frequently used by Slovaks as well, primarily memes and fandom things, shipping, art, cultural things, frequently overlaps with #česky
#obrození, #obrozujeme - memes and fandoms as well but with more emphasis of maintaining and developing Czech culture, is a mostly humorous parody/self-proclaimed continuation of the Czech National Revival of the 1800s, overlaps with #čumblr and #česky
• Slovak
#slovensky - general Slovak language posts
#slumblr, #sumblr, NEW - #ťumbľr - Slovak, general posts, memes, fandom and culture things, sometimes overlaps with #čumblr

My favorite word today: Kissanristiäiset
Finnish term, which according to sanakirja.org translates to "any event or gathering celebrating an achievement so insignificant that hardly anyone cares".
Literally translates as "the cat's christening".
