This paper presents some preliminary results of a long-term project investigating syntactic variation in Swiss German. Based on a parsed corpus of spontaneous speech of currently about 900’000 words, we will focus on the variation that can be found in two areas of the grammar: (1) The distribution of the verbal elements in the verb cluster (Verb (Projection) Raising); (2) V2 vs V3.
