Hello everybody,

I was wondering if someone could help me translate this tiny bit of swiss german (basel swiss german I think) into english:

drzue kunnt dr mäni am donnschtig, er het mir verpsoche, dass er sich um ihn kümmeret...

Thank you!

drzue kunnt dr mäni am donnschtig, er het mir verpsoche, dass er sich um ihn kümmeret...

Mäni will come/join us on Thursday. He promised to take care of him/it (depends if a person or a thing is taken care of).


Hope it makes sense in the context you are referring to.

This does indeed make sense. Thank you for your help!

HI DO YOU SPEAK SWISS GERMAN? I NEED HELP TO TRANSLATE SOMETHING.. CAN YOU HELP ME??? I DONT KNOW TO USE THIS SITE.. TO SEND A GENERAL MESSAGE TO EVERYBODY.. THAT IS WHY I REPLAY YOUR MESSAGE :/
HERE IS WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO TRANSLATE: suacht a wohnig in züri

THANKS IN ADVANCE

haha. nice one

Sucht der Wohnung in Zürich?

Looking for flat in Zurich?

Sucht eine Wohnung in Zuerich...lol

Wow, screaming on EF.

It should say "z'Züri'. The language is "bündnerisch" because of the "suacht".

And I always wondered why there isn't a button to send general messages to everybody. Would be a lot of fun...I guess.

But ok, it says: "is searching a flat in Zürich"

thank u very much!!! .. do u know where i can find a "text translator" for swiss german to english? or swiss german to french? , i think its better, i hate to bother ppl so much

and by the way, i wasnt screaming , just trying to take everybody attention with capital letters

So what does the "het" stand for and is this the same meaning as häts? :/ thank you in advance ...

het/hät = 3rd person singular of 'to have' (='has')*

*Your mileage may vary — especially if an idiom is involved.

ok thanks... 'häts' varying from dialect to dialect? I figured could mean "today has" (if hüt = heute)?

Can you have a look at this?

"Ja ez bini wieder retour ide schwiiz...Isch das kalt do! schliiim!
Schad häts ned klappet gha...wie lang bisch denn na in city? gedenksch zum wiedermol it schwiiz zcho? "

so Ive tried to make sense of it....

Ja echt (or jetz?) binnen (or ich bin?) wieder retour in der schwiiz...Ist das kalt doch (or dort?)
Schade haben (or heute es ?)nicht klappt...wie lange du bist denn noch in city?
Gedanke zum wieder ist schweiz zeit komme?


can someone please give their opinion on this?

Yeah, now I'm back in Switzerland...Man is it cold there! Severe!
Too bad it didn't come off...How long will you be in the city? Are you considering returning to Switzerland?

hät = hat = has
The S stands for "es" so häts means "hat es = it has"

Ja jetzt (etz) bin ich (bin I) wieder retour (back ?) in der Schweiz
Ist es kalt hier!(do =hier) Schlimm!
Schade hat es (hät'S) nicht geklappt ... Wie lange bist du denn noch in der City?
Gedenkst du, wieder einmal in die Schweiz zu kommen?

Hello anybody could someone please help me out for this. Frist of all I don't really know how it work for this site anyway I wish I will can get help as soon as possible "Hola Kammy was machsch dann jetz!Bewirbsch di wiedr odr gasch!" what is it about?
Thank you

"Hi Kammy, what will you do now then? Are you going to apply again(for a job or smth) or are you going to leave".

"Hello" or "holly" Kammy what are you going to do! Will you reapply or leave!

I can not see the use of exlamation marks instead of question marks.

Thank you for your help it gotta be great if I know what to do

joining will be Mäni, on Thursday, and he promised me, that he will take care of him
