Language / Giving directions in Polish [51]

In Russian the expression 'your mouth will lead you to Kijev'

Not "mouth", but "jezyk" as well. Sounds "Jazyk do Kijewa dowedet" :)

I want to learn Swinka Morska in every language...

In Russian it sounds very similar - morskaya swinka. In Ukrainian mors'ka swynka.

Genealogy / Surname Berdecki/Berdecka [3]

My great grandfather's name was Diomid Berdecki (not sure about surname spelling in Polish), I do not know many about him...

Does this surname (Berdecki or Berdecka for female maybe...) exist nowdays in Poland? I assume it is not very popular. So i could possible that some Polish people having this surname nowdays are my relatives :)
