Multiple languages on the same channel

we would like to have the ability to switch language on a channel.
We now have several channels for different countries, but we also have a request for show a different language on a channel
ex
finninsh site www.domain.fi should be able to display english and swedish content by selecting language in a dropdown but remain on the finnish channel.
what is the recommended approach for this?

I can think of some alternatives:

  1. create new channels. ex www.domain.fi/en, www.domain.fi/se and configure like the finnish channel exept for the language
    problem with this is that we would get a lot of channels to handle.

  2. add more url to the channels and somehow select which language to display based on url.
    Will this work with seo, sitemap …

  3. Add query string parameter with language info (?lan=en)
    possible SEO problem, not recommended by google.

We recommend setting up a new channel and reusing the website, so option 1 from your alternatives.
