SwissalpSFebruary 2022 Most places the french ’salut’ is used. In the north ’gruezi’ is very common. In the mountains ’Gruess-Gott’ is a general polite way to say hi. You wouldn’t use ’salut’ (salue) in formal settings where as with ’gruezi’ can be used for semi-formal settings. Safest is to use ’gruessech’/’gruess-euch’ Dialects will have variations. |
