Life / Styles in Poland: What do people wear? [65]

Well, I'm sorry that I'm so ignorant! It's not like Poland is a constantly talked about country in my small town. I don't believe I've ever heard anything about Poland on the news unless people are talking about WWII. Excuse me if I don't want to make an incredible fool of myself when I'm going to a completely new country.

Life / Styles in Poland: What do people wear? [65]

the person that started off the thread seemed to want to know the fashion so i tried to help her out :)

And thank you for that. It wasn't you who was being a jerk. There were just some people who didn't need to start off their replies with sarcasm. I was being completely serious when I asked about style. I'm already scared enough to be going over seas away from my family and friends for a whole year, and I'm trying to find out as much as I possibly can before I leave.

But once again, thank you Summer, you've been helpful...and so have some others...so thank you everyone.

Language / (part 2) Polish Language Pronunciation - Sample Words and Phrases [311]

Merged:How do you say Wroclaw?

Hi! I'm going to Wroclaw next year on exchange, and I can't figure out how to pronounce it. I've looked on the internet, but I've been told two different things. One website said it was pronounce "Vroh-slav" and another said it was "vrott-suave". Which one is correct? Or are either of them?
