    Bini, hani, gangi? Many thanks to all who helped with the survey for my new book, Basel Dialect Verbs. The book aims to help incomers to Basel make sense of the local dialect they are hearing, turning mysterious words into comprehensible input. It presents key verbs, provides online audio and offers optional workout exercises.
    Order from Bider and Tanner and Orell Füssli bookshops in Basel (around CHF 14.90). or from the publisher https://buchshop.bod.de/basel-dialect-verbs-margaret-oertig-9783695144952 (€9.90 postage free in Europe), or from Amazon.de. The e-book is coming soon.
    Tip for job seekers: If you understand some Swiss German and are applying for a job in Switzerland, it is worth listing this in your CV as a language skill.
