Travel Info Which language is the most dominant in Switzerland? Travel Tips In my little country we speak (in order of most spoken to least spoken) *Swiss German (a variation of German, and is VERY different from its original counterpart, as its sound is very different) *French (almost like French spoken in France, save a few word differences, i.e. one does not say "quatre-vingts" for 80 but "huitante", "septante" for 70, instead of "soixante-dix", "nonante" instead of "quatre-vingts-dix-neuf" for 90 and, last but not least "cornet" instead of sachet which is the word for bag. *Italian (Basically the same as Italian spoken in Italy) *Romansh (Very beautiful language. A mix of German, French, Italian and Latin and is a treat to hear being spoken!) Hope this helps!

Other Travel Tips I'd say it's not Italian or Romanish, so it's probably either German or French (most likely German). German and French it's definitely french (but many parts speak german also) They speak French, German, and Italian; and also Romansh for communicating with persons of Romansh language. It depends on which region you are in as to what language is spoken there. Wikipedia under culture and notes. |
