German words used by expats in English conversations

there are no real rules in writing swiss german... so: who cares?

but its Italian... and I'm not saying the Swiss can't spell, I'm saying they don't spell it "Tschau" like D88 has written.

But perhaps too much of a trochle.....(only I don't think that's how it's spelt, but you'll ken what I mean!)

So agree with you! Genau...oder...doch!All the words I use so often and do not realise.Leaves my english mates a bit baffled...
