Short slogan in Swiss German -

Hello,

This from a web site about the UNESCO Biosphere Entlebuch:

Wöukomme inere Wäut für Mönsch und Natur

Would I be right in thinking 'welcome to a world for people and nature'? Not sure about Wäut.

Many thanks for any clarification!

Yes, that’s correct.

There are a lot of Swiss German local variants. Every 40 km, a new different dialect. Compare the Swiss German of Bern with the Swiss German of Davos or Apenzell and you will feel the differences.
