Karl Hugo Bergroth (18 May 1866 – 1 April 1937) was a Finnish philologist and language planner. He served as lecturer in Swedish at the University of Helsinki for over forty years and devoted his career to preserving Finland Swedish as part of standard Swedish. His principal work, Finlandssvenska (1917), remains one of the most comprehensive documentations of Finland-Swedish deviations from the Swedish spoken in Sweden. He was the brother of entomologist Ernst Evald Bergroth.
