To close the gap in language comprehension research, we investigated the sentence comprehension abilities of 300 monolingual Swiss-German speaking children between the ages of kindergarten up to third grade. We explored potential differences in comprehension performances in Swiss-German and Standard-German by carrying out tests of both varieties. Overall, the Bernese children score better on the Swiss-German test version, although the difference between the comprehension performances in both test versions get smaller the older the children become. Kindergarten children are already able to correctly understand grammatically simple sentence constructions in Standard-German. The development of sentence comprehension seems to continue after third grade, since complex sentences remain difficult even at a higher age, especially in the Standard-German variety.
