Life / Poles in Poland: How did you learn your English? [60]


my ex's (of italian heritge) grandad has been in australia since the end of ww2, his english was okay but at times incomprehensible.

it really depends on the individual, my dad was born o/s and came to australia when he was 6 or 7 and apart from a few mudder (mother) and ledder (leather) he could pass as an aussie no doubt.

my mum makes them with wonton wrappers as too time consuming to make the dough.

it depends, in western countries such as australia, america, britain, etc there will be a large proportion of people that are able to use chop sticks. in pakistan i couldnt imagine there would be too many chinese or an influence of using chop sticks.

here is a link to a review of a dumpling restaurant:

i dont know if that koala was heat affected or bushfire affected.

in february we had a run of 4 days around 40c, which inevitably led to some idiot lighting a fire and small towns being destroyed. im not sure if that koala is drinking because of that.

did you know that gum leaves for them are like alcohol/drugs for humans?

im not that cool, there are many chinese restaurants in melbourne. i remember the names.


i thought it was coz they were spicy...you learn something new everyday.


melbourne has chinese migrants since the 1800's when there was a goldrush. we still have a huge chinese population.

i use chopsticks to eat xiao long bao and dan dan...except when dan dan is nearly finished and i need a spoon.

i am from australia, and australia has a large chinese migrant population.

i actually live out that way and there isnt too many poles out in the north, they seem to concentrate more in the west and east.

At the 2006 Census, 32 per cent of Australians of Polish ancestry lived in Victoria (27 per cent in Melbourne), 28 per cent in New South Wales (21 per cent in Sydney), 13 per cent in Queensland (8 per cent in Brisbane), 11 per cent in South Australia (10 per cent in Adelaide), 11 per cent in Western Australia, 2 per cent in the Australian Capital Territory, 2 per cent in Tasmania and less than 0.5 per cent in the Northern Territory. [61] In sum, Australians of Polish ancestry tend to be big-city dwellers with nearly half of the group living in Melbourne and Sydney conurbations.

im aware that you dont live in australia but our crazy country has this crazy notion that if you're a citizen then you are required to vote, if not then you get fined. and being out of the country is no excuse.

so i was more wondering if you had a trail of notices from the electoral offices floating somewhere.
