how to say hello in swiss

In Switzerland, there are four official languages: German, French, Italian, and Romansh. Here are some ways to say "hello" in each of these languages:

  1. German (Swiss German):

    • "Hallo" (HA-lo) – informal
    • "Guten Tag" (GOO-ten TAG) – formal (good day)
    • "Grüezi" (GROO-tsee) – formal (specific to Swiss German)
  2. French:

    • "Bonjour" (bone-JOOR) – formal (good day)
    • "Salut" (sah-LOO) – informal
  3. Italian:

    • "Ciao" (CHOW) – informal
    • "Buongiorno" (BWOHN-jhor-noh) – formal (good day)
  4. Romansh:

    • "Ciau" (CHOW) – informal
    • "Bun di" (BOON dee) – formal (good day)

If you’re not sure which language to use, you can always say "Hello" or "Hi" in English, as many Swiss people speak English as a second language.
