Resident foreign nationals make up about a third of Bern’s populations. German is used more than other languages, with a substantial Swiss German vocabulary. It is not the high German often expected, with over 3000 unique words and unexpected definitions. These blend together fittingly with the medieval flavor and abundant history the city showcases.
