I really like to listen to the Schwyzerdütsch but nobody can possible understand it :) There is a way of speaking it only with a bit of the accent: like when you listen to Peter Bichsel reading his stories for children. It's so nice. Maybe you heard of them: Onkel Jodok or Über den Mann der nichts mehr wissen wollte :D

Yes, he definitely pronounces the "e" distinctly, and doesn't contract the whole er into one vowel, which is quite common, but still not the norm. He says [aːbɛɐ̯], she [aːbɐ]. The norm is in fact a "weakened a", or a "near-open central vowel" (look it up in Wikipedia), [ɐ] in phonetics, which everybody in the video intuitively identified as an "e"...

@magauchsein

i didn't intend to actually teach ppl schwiizerdütsch:)

but even in "schweizer standard/schriftsprache"(the variant yous guys understand^^) the Rs are conspicuously pronounced even after vowels.

it's like with english speakers. received pronunciation in England and Australian english drop their Rs. But the Scottish, Irish and Americans pronounce them.

and foreigners more often adapt to the latter variety because they don't have to worry about when to pronounce an R and when not to.

and when r is pronounced like r in English like in riechen i mean is there a rule or something because the letter r is driving me crazy it is like the letter غ in arabic but a bit lighter in pronunciation Uvular trill [ʀ] or Voiced uvular fricative [ʁ] Alveolar trill [r] source wiki/R
