About this app

Learn Swiss German — your little pocket trainer & guide.

Becoming Schwiizer

is for all the expats who live and work in Switzerland and have almost got the Swiss life down — if only it weren't for that one thing: the Alemannic dialect, Swiss German. And that's exactly where we come in. Becoming Schwiizer helps you close the gap between expat greenhorn and Einheimischer, one word at a time.

It's also for excited travellers ready to explore Switzerland and have some fun learning their first useful words, phrases and facts about the country. A little pocket trainer and guide.

Listen, repeat, compare — with Deborah, a Swiss voice-over artist. And it's all linked: a search section to find your learnt words faster, and Helvi the dragon to help with the quiz and point you to the right articles.

For anyone considering a Swiss passport, our Einbürgerungs-Quiz lets you start with the basics.

Becoming Schwiizer is updated regularly and its library keeps growing — wish for a word you're missing and would like to learn. Your inspiration is always welcome.

Start now — and become Schwiizer.
