Super Mario, most people don't know this. He's Italian, but he's not from the country of Italy. He's actually Swiss. Grew up in the canton of Ticino. In fact his mother's family is Romansch

Man kan liksom se på håll hur de snackar öronen av varandra. Jävla gullon.
En femmil blev det. Från Andermatt till Disentis. Folk snackade Romansch på bussen. 🏔️

Ha! Joke's on you, all those mocking Trump's line in his speech in Davos that without the US, they'd all be speaking German; Davos is in a region of Switzerland in which quite a lot of people have Romansch as a first language, something that I'm sure is in a footnote in his highly researched script.

Most people do not know that Switzerland has four national languages: German, French, Italian, and Romansch.
And yeah, it's confusing.

What's even stranger: it also has no idea what Rumantsch/Romansch is. Despite the fact that this is the fourth official language of an entire country (i.e. Switzerland). Neither of these languages are obscure... so this strikes me as an omission. Who do I talk to about this inside Google? —Thanks.

Mundaun is an exceptional folk horror game set in a village in the Swiss Alps, the visually distinct hand drawn textures give it a vibe like no other, and all the spoken dialogue is in Romansch. This is one I've been itching to do a video essay about at some point.

He probably doesn’t know that 🇨🇭 has 4 National languages - French, Italian, Romansch and German (well, a bunch of very mangled dialects 😬)
He should be banned and never allowed a microphone

I wonder if they have this poster for EU languages that aren’t official but still need some love. Welsh, Breton, Frisian, Catalan/Valencian, Sorbian, Kashubian, Gaidhlig, Basque, Cornish, Manx, Romansch, Occitan: I see you.

Since the protagonist of the novel (and the two intended to follow it) speaks this language, it seems obvious that a Rumantsch (or Romansch or whatever) edition is most important... for purposes of representation of a minority language, and as a courtesy to the protagonist's home tongue. (4/n)

Speaking of folk horror, Mundaun is a god damn masterpiece. All the textures are hand-drawn in pencils, giving it an incredibly unique visual style, and the dialogue is all in Romansch.
This is what happens when you find a stranger in the Alps.
