Learn Bernese for Life

06 Speak about your Hobbies in Switzerland in Bärndütsch


Listen Later

In this episode, Simu suggests I take up joining a knitting club, I embarass myself writing and speaking Bärndütsch, all while speaking Bernese German in Switzerland. 

The skill level for this task is novice-mid according to the ACTFL proficiency guidlines. 


Content includes:

- How to send a text message telling someone that you will be late.  (However, don't be late for -anything- in the land of cheese and money!). 

- The 19 verbs related to hobbies from episode 5.

- Simu and I role play various questions and responses when asking if someone enjoys something.

- Additional dialogue for giving reasons why you like something.


The main sentences used.

1. "Do you enjoy X?"

- «Tuesch (du) gärn X » 


2. "Do you like X or X?"

-  «Tuesch lieber X oder X?»


3. "Yes, I like X."

- «Ja, I tue gärn X.»


4.  "No, I don't like X"

- «Nei, I tue nid gärn X»


5. What do like doing more? X or X?

- «Was machsch lieber? X oder X?»


The dialogue using the sentences will be separately released starting tomorrow so that you can learn them.


To learn about how to use these Bärndütsch dialogues to further your ability to understand and use these numbers in daily life, be sure to check out episodes 1 and 2.
