New paper out – Why do Swiss Germans struggle with the English STRUT vowel (but, sun, up)? It doesn’t exist in Swiss German. Findings: KV > Gymi, boys > girls, Netflix/music/gaming ≈ no effect.
Accents are natural — Swiss English is no exception. lnkd.in/dnPSxYuH #phonetics #swissgerman #accents

Ich freue mich! #SwissGerman
That time our firstborn said "Oh, f*ck!" & her Swiss father said, "She didn't learn that from me!"
But the next day she said, "Gopferdammi namal!" & I only smiled at him.
Her little brother would say, "I am schon finis."

As often is often the case when you learn a language as a kid, I have a very vague (and incorrect) understanding of Swiss German grammar, finding a page that explains stuff beyond the trivialities is far from easy, but here is one:

Swiss German conjugation: #swissgerman #mundart

Wusstest ihr, dass es das Wort „Kompagnie“ im deutschen gibt?
Ich habe es gestern zum ersten Mal in einem Newsletter gesehen. Es kam mir sehr schweizerisch vor.. beim Aufschlagen im Duden wurde meine Ahnung bestätigt.
Da hat man wieder was Neues gelernt.
