Goddess of Grammar
Swiss-German in the German part (Zurich, Bern, Lucerne, St. Gallen, most of Graubunden, which is southestern Switzerland) about 65%
French in the French part (Geneva, Lausanne (canton Vaud), Fribourg) about 25%
Italian in the Italian part (Ticino and parts of Graubunden) about 10%
Romansch in a little bit of Graubunden--Romansch is a "national" language but not an "official" language. Kids in the area learn it in school but I don't think it's spoken in the legislature.

Swiss-German is quite distinct from Standard German. The Italian and French spoken in Switzerland are pretty close to their standard varieties.

A lot of people in international companies and in tourism speak English. (Also some French-speakers and German-speakers would rather speak English together than decide between their two languages--plus the French-speakers would have learned standard German, not Swiss.) Zurich and Geneva have lots of immigrants who speak Turkish, Albanian, Spanish, Thai, etc. Even English too, like me!


Yeah, Toast!
Ummm French? Not sure.

There are four official languages in Switzerland: 70% German, 19% French, 8% Italian and 1% Rhaeto-Romanic (and 2% unofficial other languages) Good luck!
