7 rules in the corpus · Written by Swiss German speakers · No AI, no API calls

Built from rules that Swiss speakers wrote.

01

Written by hand, rule by rule

Every dialect rendering you see was written by a Swiss speaker. No language model, no API calls, nothing invented. When the translator does not know a word, it says so.

02

Grown by the people who speak it

The corpus grows as Swiss German speakers send in rules. An approved rule from a signed-in contributor carries their name.

03

Free, and no account needed

Translating is free and open. Suggestions are limited to one per browser while the queue is read by hand. Signed in, an approved rule carries your name in the rule history.

Help us grow it.

If you speak a Swiss German dialect, Züri, Bern, St. Gallen or anywhere else, you can suggest rules. Signed in, an approved rule carries your name in the rule history.

A translator can't teach you Swiss.
A Swiss can.

The translator is a starting point. For real fluency, you need a person. The rhythm, the slang, the confidence to speak in a Zürich tram or a Bern office. Bernaly connects you with verified Swiss tutors who teach the dialect you actually need.
