Do you know how to respond in Switzerland to avoid an intercultural mishap? Once you\'ve started picking up the language as an expat, you\'ll start to notice the mother-tongue speakers around you reply in certain ways to specific situations or questions. This can be from anything as simple as a sneeze to trickier discussions about salaries, or dare-we-go-there, politics. It can take a while to work out what you need to say when, to avoid seriously offending your new-found friends, colleagues or anyone else you meet, so we have a few short cuts for you.
Did you know we have a Facebook group, Switzerland for English Speakers? It\'s a great place to ask questions or share experiences. Take a look!
