Rule-based, not AI-generated
Every dialect rendering you see was hand-authored by a Swiss speaker. No LLM, no API calls, no hallucinations. When the translator doesn't know a word, it says so honestly.

More than a translation?
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.
