How good is your Polish ? If it isn't so good then I like the idea that the Cat in the hat suggested of having a dinner with all the family

Love / Ask for permission before marriage (I'm from England, she's from Poland) [25]

Sounds like you want to do the right thing but those days have past I think.

Best advice would be to ask her first and then ask her advice (provided she say's yes) if you should as her father. If she says yes, then ask him . He does need to know he wasn't first.

Either way, don't forget to put on the forum what her answer is !!

Life / Are Polish People Hypochondriacs? [50]

My God , thay are the worst Hypochondriacs in the world. They don't get a cold, they have snot cancer.

Another thing is regarding medical matters, they will insist that

1) Polish doctors are the best in the world

2) They (Polish in England) know more regarding medical matters than any English doctor.

3) They have a friend who went to an English doctor with broken leg/Cancer/child birth (delete as necessary) and where given just an Aspirin

4) After their mothers, a gynachologist is a woman's best friend.

AM I WRONG ??????? English Husbands of Polish Women , speak up !!

Life / POLES' ENGLISH COMPARED TO EUROPE AS A WHOLE? [39]

I found that the Poles that have been here 3-4 years have learnt English out of obligation (since no one spoke Polish) whereas the poles that have been here only about 2 years have an easier time speaking Polish only all the time . Pity relly cos it will issolate them from the Brits and their own children how will speak English (as many an family who came from Asia will testify.

I think people one this thread are mistaken the Accent to the grammer. I love the Polish accent and hope Poles will not try to hide this. English is based originally on a language from the west of Holland (before people say 75% of words are French, I know but those words where added a good 1500 years late) so I guess it would make sense that the dutch find it easier accent wise.
