Where dialect is not your problem but your people's.
Heidi for Teams
Create a group for your team and choose its focus — the situations in a care home, for example. Your people practise on their own devices and decide for themselves whether to show you which situations they are secure in. Whoever masters a situation gets a certificate for it, which you can check through its link.

A resident with dementia loses her second languages first. What is left is the Zurich German of her childhood. The carer on the late shift arrived from Lisbon two years ago and learned Standard German — not that.

At triage a patient answers the question about her pain — in dialect, because pain does not speak a second language. The junior doctor trained in Heidelberg.

Kindergarten in the canton of Zurich is conducted in dialect — the electorate decided that in 2011. At the parents' evening the parents discover they cannot follow their own child's school language.

Your student passes B2 and still understands nothing at the lunch table. She concludes it is her fault.

You bring a consultant from Heidelberg to a Zurich hospital: permit, registration, a school place, insurance. All of it runs. The first thing that breaks is the ward round — and the conversation with the caretaker that evening.

The meeting runs in English. The moment it turns informal it switches to dialect — and informal is when things get decided.

What happens if you write
You write, we answer with questions
Not a sales call. We want to know where exactly that moment happens, who is allowed to hold a phone during it, and what is done instead today.
Your people try it, at no cost
Heidi is openly available. Give the link to five of your staff and let them work with it for a week before anybody talks about money.
We build your scenes — or say no
If it holds up, we write the lines for your setting, checked for Zurich forms like every other, and your team practises them as its own situations. If it does not, we say so. There are no prices here because we have never charged one — an invented number would be worse than none.
