Schweizerdeutsch



Plankton is one of many bands of the same name, but this particular band
hails from the beautiful CH, Confoederatio Helvetica or to English speakers Switzerland.


If you speak any German at all you still may be thrown off by the "Schweizerdeutsch" dialect of their home canton of Zurich. It threw me for the first while until I realized they were Swiss, then I pretty much gave up trying to follow the accent. It's cute but trying to translate into German then again into Schweizerdeutsch is a bit much for me, so I just quit translating and simply listen to the music instead.


SONG OF THE DAY: "Happy End" - Plankton


for Football/Soccer fans "Die wo nid chönd Tschutte" is a good tune too.
