About
Switzerland is home to a multilingual population with three primary official languages in practice: German, French, and Italian. This linguistic diversity influences various aspects of daily life, including agricultural practices such as the naming of livestock. Collected and developed by Identitas AG, the organisation responsible for the registration and monitoring of animals in Switzerland, this file captures the naming trends of female goats. It allows for an analysis of how naming preferences vary depending on the language of the owner, providing a cultural and linguistic cross-section of Swiss livestock.
