Toot

The Swiss Idiotikon lists Swiss German words and discusses what they mean and where they come from. I feel like Switzerland has really strong dialects given it's size less than 10 million inhabitants. Perhaps due to limited mobility with those valleys and rivers forming stronger boundaries? I don't know.

I just looked at the blog post "Huna, hooba, hina, hussa!" and had a laugh. Love the comic, too!
