When you think about life
When you think about life in Switzerland, you automatically think about how to learn Swiss German. Often this question is asked before moving to Switzerland, as you want to be well prepared. Depending on where you move in Switzerland, you are interested in learning German, French, Italian or Romansh. The one that is most popular is Swiss German though.
Swiss German has many dialects and they all sound a bit different. Not only that but with the different sound, the German Swiss usually know from which part of Switzerland you are from, and what mentality you have. As not all mentalities are appreciated in all of the different regions, this may lead to complications or difficulties in the relationship with the respective locals. Avoiding this is very important on your journey to settle in Switzerland. For this reason, you want to learn the proper dialect of where you will live.
For beginners, I suggest to first learn some High German, or the German form Germany, as it helps to understand the basics of the language and you can speak to more people. Only then I would dive into learning Swiss German with locals directly, preferably a good friend of yours, as then you will get to learn the desired dialect as well.
I hope you find this useful and I wish you a lot of fun learning Swiss German!
