What do you call “a single Switzerland person? Like, an American is an American. A Canadian is a canadian. A Switzerland dude is a what?” 6:29:08 AM 8/17/07 “Monty Python had a great debate on what we should call the people from Belgium....(LOL)...the only swiss person I ever met I called Frieda....” 6:32:18 AM 8/17/07 “"That's the problem with Neutrals - you never know where you stand. Damn them and their neutrality." -- Zap Brannigan” 6:35:05 AM 8/17/07 “Schweizer Switzer I guess???” 6:38:23 AM 8/17/07 “Those sound pretty reasonable. Anybody from Switzerland? EuroHike?? fill in the blank ... I love my country, that is why I am proud to be a ______________.” 6:40:15 AM 8/17/07 “maybe just swiss? [no "a"]” 6:44:59 AM 8/17/07 “Sarge - toldya. Gem figured it out.” 6:47:13 AM 8/17/07 “Yeah, maybe there is no equivalent. You can say "I am proud to be American." OR "I am proud to be an American." (the first one seems to imply more of being part of a larger group)” 6:49:02 AM 8/17/07 “Swizzlestick” 6:58:08 AM 8/17/07 “swisher” 6:59:49 AM 8/17/07 “I might have been right the first time (on the other thread). Can anybody confirm this? A coworker said that if you're from Sweden, you're "a swede", and if you're from Switzerland, you're "a swiss".” 7:39:04 AM 8/17/07 “I don't know. How would it sound in French, Germen, and Italian?” 7:41:36 AM 8/17/07 “excellent quote zac! i'd also like to add: That Guy: Switzerland is small and neutral. We're more like Germany; ambitious and misunderstood. Amy: Look, everyone wants to be like Germany but do we really have the pure strength of will?” 7:58:46 AM 8/17/07 “No "a" just Swiss.” 8:11:56 AM 8/17/07 “I concur, Swiss indeed....” 7:17:26 PM 8/17/07 “Unless they're Suisse” 7:18:12 PM 8/17/07 “A Swiss is just a Swiss, a sigh is just a.......Oh nevermind ;-)” 7:24:14 PM 8/17/07 “chump” 7:35:35 PM 8/17/07 “boo hoo” 7:38:03 PM 8/17/07
