Translating from German
German puts verbs at the end of subordinate clauses and builds long compound nouns, so long sentences are often split and compounds become several words in translation. Check key terminology.
Decimal comma with a point as thousands separator (1.234,5); Switzerland often uses an apostrophe (1'234.5). Dates are day first (14.10.2026).
Swiss Standard German writes ss instead of ß. Austrian German has some vocabulary of its own.
