Swiss german is a strong dialect of standard-german. Grammar, sentenceorder an vocabulary are often completely different. a german does often not understand a swiss. a swiss does understand a german because the swiss uses standard-german in his daily life (eg writing, newspapers, books are mainly all in standard-german).
