Re: Resources for learning Swiss german [all dialects]

It is a great reference, quite diverse, though several of my Swiss friends have said to be careful as some of the translations are inappropriate, ie not polite to use. Its interesting how langauge relates to the country itself, ie 4 different words for "steep". Also it is very regional of course and some words were not recognised at all by my friends, Zuri and Geneva. But it has been great for me, the verbs especially.
