Che cosa è cambiato, con la data — e nelle parole di chi lo usa.
Non è un log di Git. Il repository è pubblico e chi vuole ogni commit li trova lì. Qui c’è quello che una persona avrebbe notato — errori compresi, perché un registro senza righe imbarazzanti dimostra che la promessa «pubblichiamo anche ciò che non ha funzionato» è decorativa.

Practice is now something you choose
Typing was everywhere and cards did not exist. Both are their own mode now, and there is a test that says nothing until the end.
- Four ways to practise: mixed, tapping, writing, cards. The choice lives in the URL, so it is shareable.
- Two new question types: write whole sentences in Zurich German, and real flashcards over the whole vocabulary.
- The question pool grew from 221 to 553.
- A test: twenty questions in a row, silence as you go, every answer with its explanation at the end — the wrong ones first. The clock is optional and can be extended.
- The typing field is gone from the card and gap questions. It used to appear every second or third question.
- Corretto
A conjugation question was translating the thing it teaches
In Russian the prompt read «мы ___» above a question about which Zurich verb form fits. Answering it correctly left you having never seen `mir chömed` — the only string it was ever about.
- The pronoun now comes from the variety pack and is printed in dialect; the reader's own word moves to the line underneath.
- In English a menu was called «Practise» and its first entry was also «Practise». The same in five of seven languages. A test ends that class of bug.
- Corretto
A recording with no speech in it was given words
A 1.5-second take — which the product itself calls too short to say anything about — was sent to be transcribed and came back as «Bis zum nächsten Mal.» Four words nobody had said.
- Recordings below our own threshold no longer leave the device at all.
- Found by a new harness that drives the page with a fake microphone — not by reading the source.
- Nuovo
The reference pages do something now
Grammar, vocabulary and situations were there to read. Each one now leads into practice that stays on its subject.
- Every grammar topic has its own page and a button that drills only that topic.
- Heidi keeps track of which topics and words are giving you trouble, and brings them forward.
- The material grew considerably: 11 grammar topics, 83 words, 14 scenes.
- Nuovo
Where you need it: six scenes from a shift
Handover, the morning, pain, meals, the evening, visitors — lines as they are actually said in care work, machine-checked for Zurich forms.
- Every line names its source and every line passed the variety gate.
- The page says for itself that no native speaker has read them yet.
- Nuovo
Somewhere to open your mouth
Record yourself and see what the recording actually shows: time spent speaking, where the pauses were, and which words came from another dialect.
- No score for pronunciation. Nobody can measure that honestly today, and a number would be a claim about a person.
- In Zurich German nothing is transcribed, on purpose: no system writes this dialect down reliably.
- Nuovo
What a computer can do with Swiss German — with the numbers
Corpora, word error rates, speech synthesis and language models, each with its source, so you can check our claims against the field.
- The best verifiable word error rate is 12.1 % — and those weights are not published.
- Almost every Zurich corpus is research-licensed or has a contested licence.
- Nuovo
A reference section built on data
Every German-speaking dialect area of Switzerland, a map that says which claim it is making, and the words that actually block a sentence.
- A claim is data, gated and cited — not translated prose nobody here can check.
- Base
Heidi starts
One field on one page: paste a real message and have it explained.
- Four deterministic guards between the model and the learner, because that learner is exactly the person who cannot check the work.
- Every generated line goes through the variety gate before anybody sees it.
