Re: Would you like to have Swiss German as an official language in place of High Germ
Even in Germany, people by default speak Swaebi Deutsch or Bayern Deutsch or Koeln Deutsch or ... amongst their local communities rather than Hoch Deutsch. It's only when one needs to communicate with "outsiders" that the standardised language is needed.
It's not just Switzerland that has these issues...
