Why is Swiss German changing? And could the different Swiss dialects actually be becoming more similar?

In this episode, I take a closer look at the great dialect shift happening in Switzerland. We’ll explore dialect leveling, the influence of mobility and social media, and some fascinating changes in everyday Swiss German. We’ll also look at why Standard German and English are increasingly influencing the way young people speak.
