Official Terms in French

Hi all,

I am trying to find the French-Switzerland equivalents of some of the common "Ämtlich" phrases and abbreviations - i.e. what these things are called over the Röstigraben.

I found one website with some useful words:

http://www.fxm.ch/

But I am still missing a few. If someone can point me at a good site then please do so. Otherwise here are the phrases I am looking for:

- Zahlschein
- Nebenkosten
- Berufslehre
- Bundessteuer / Kantonalsteuer / Gemeindesteuer
- Sperrkonto
- Stammgeld (what you use to start a GmbH)

All help received with gratitude.

Cheers,
Nick
