Switzerland, officially the Swiss Confederation, is a land with diverse population. The federation has four official languages- German, Italian, Romansh, and French. Towards the south and across the Alps, Italian is spoken; to the west, French; while German is spoken in the central and eastern parts of Switzerland. Romansh is predominantly spoken in the southwest, in the Canton of Graubünden, where Italian and German are also official languages.

English is not an official language but is widely understood across the nation.
