Language / When does polish "ch" sound like eng "ch" and when is it "h"? [59]

no man.. no k, no nothing.. simple H is what it sounds like.. don't make something out of this that just isn't. ch=h in pronunciation in every single case.. there is absolutely no difference in sound.. NONE. a few centruries ago, perhaps but not today.

History / Gdansk and it's history with Poland [116]

well, i don't know where you get the german feel to it.. it definitely has a baltic feel to it as opposed to krakow or lublin or any other interior city.

History / Gdansk and it's history with Poland [116]

no, gdansk does not have a german feel to it at all.. have you even been in either gdansk or a german city?

History / Gdansk and it's history with Poland [116]

But whats a classic Polish architecture ?

there is no classic Polish architecture!

wrong.. see above

Gdansk was an Royal Free City (same like Kraków and others) the Kingdom being Kingdom of Poland!

so technically they we're in the kingdom.. it's one or the other but not both.

anyway its hardly Polish architecture hence the name -Mazovian Gothic !

where is mazowsze then?

here is another example of polish architecture: alternative4.blox.pl/resource/Rynek_Starego_Miasta_w_Warszawie.jpg

Life / What really represents Polish people? What would be the symbol of Poland... [51]

design the new Polish flag which would represent the 'modern' Poland

i like this idea.. how about a palm right in the middle.. or an blue octagon.. yeah.. :D :D

You've stated your leaning toward Syrenka/Mermaid? Will that capture the Polish Spirit?

to me nike is the one that really captures the spirit.

nike

eird, I haven't heard of her... and saying that she represents Polish people that's going over the top..

not at all.. many non polish catholics know all about her.. she's a huge symbol in PL.

Language / Hussar-the word, is it originally Polish? [10]

how did you get the feminine?

But originally it comes from Latin "hussarium" which means "chicken feathers"

did you pull that out of your butt too?

UK, Ireland / Friend told "just allow your son to forget Polish" by school. [96]

Does anyone have any opinion on this? Like why the school might give this advice.

why are they talking in english to him at home and then get offended by this comment? seems on par with their way of raising this kid.
