The Swedish dialects of Finland, regardless of diachronic status, are counted as Swedish [swe] in E16/E17/E18/E19/E20/E21/E22/E23/E24/E25/E26/E27/E28. However, the divergence of the archaic varieties ( Hultman, O.F. 1894 ), the historical depth ( Rendahl, Anne-Charlotte 2001: 143-144 , Henrik Rosenkvist 2018: 8 , 17) and occasional testimonies of unintelligibility ( Eva Sundberg 1993 :xiv-xvi) suggest that some, or the collective, of the archaic varieties merits its own language-level entry, though more research is needed. All authors that sought to describe the archaic varieties noted that the shift to a more standard form was already advanced at the time of their investigations ( Vilhelm Eliel Viktorinus Wessman 1945, 1947, 1949, 1950 :vii-xiii, Anton Karsten 1891: 3-5 , Eva Sundberg 1993 :i, vii, xv, xxv, Freudenthal, Axel Olof 1870: 4-6 , Johannes Klockars 1933: 17-18 , Karl Hagfors 1891: 6 , Lundström, Gudrun 1939: 1-3 ). The resulting modern varieties, also typically called (modern) Finnish Swedish, thus do not reflect the divergence of the by now largely lost archaic varieties. See also: Swedish [swe].
