Le rez-de-chaussé - Floor 0. ...Kudos for trying to use Swiss German, but I'd take advantage of that common other language your lands have and French it up. ...hoooo hooo...French it up!
You say things in Canada are as you say they are , well, don`t get me wrong cause I like your videos, but Quebec is part of Canada too, and we have different ways of expressing some of those vrery things you talk about. Example; a 1 bedroom apartment, would be called a 3 and a half apartment , etc.....
@boch61 I would never want to exclude Quebec! Switzerland has a French-speaking region too. What I really mean by "Canada" is "where I come from in Canada." So I guess the comparisons I make are specifically Toronto-Zurich. Some of them are also valid for the rest of both countries (like the coins).
Hahahaha, sounds so familiar from growing up in a German-speaking household with a Viennese mother. Have you run into 'quarter to' phrased as three quarters to the hour? 9:45 would be dreiviertel zehn. Gawd, I always hated that!
If you think the german numbers are difficult, you should learn french, because 90 is 4x20+10 for them.
Oh and for me as a german it would be the other way round in America. I once tried to cook a Thanksgiving meal and so I had an american recipes. I had to look up the degree numbers and the weights, because they were in Fahrenheit and ounces. So it would be totally confusing for me to only have the volume of something in a recipe.
Ich mag deine Videos, viel Spaß weiterhin in Zürich!
@karflooie That's interesting, than the native French are the only ones who still use quatre-vingt-dix, because I know that in Belgium they also say nonante.

I love your videos... so many familiar problems. Just that I moved from Germany to Canada. :-) Why did you move?

@halifaxwebcam Maybe I should make a video about that. It wasn't for a job. I'm still looking!

@CharlineLikesC Thanks!
By the way, in Swiss French they say "nonante" instead of "quatre-vingt-dix" for 90.

Fun with numbers. I'm still waiting for some comment about last year's federal election.
