Estonian is considered to be a Finno-Ugric family (the pribaltijsko-Finnish branch). If to look at a map of Europe, Estonia can be found easily in the northeast, and to be more specific – on the southern coast of the gulf of Finland. The population of this Baltic state makes about 1.5 million persons, 2/3 of which are ethnic Estonians.
Estonian languagewhich has become official in Estonia in the nineties of the twentieth century bears the impression of continuous battles with armies of neighboring countries. Crusaders, Finns, Danes, Swedes, Poles and Russian, together with representatives of other Baltic tribes, have at various times left a trace in Estonian language in the form of considerate amounts of words borrowed. The first written sources in Estonian language lead to XIII century, and in 1535 the first book is printed in Estonian language. Only in the XX century the standard Estonian language has arisen on the basis of two dialects (northern and southern). Despite of an impressive amount of Russian-speaking population, Estonian language dominates in all fields of activity (education, mechanics, business etc)
