Re: Swiss German or High German

Today I spoke with a coworker here in Brussels who is from the French part of Switzerland. He told me the following;

1) Swiss Germans do not like High German, they prefer to speak in English with a Native German (not in business, of course, but private).

2) in the French part, on the other hand, they do not like Swiss German,


Who can you confirm this ? Is this right ?
