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

"Loch" makes a "k" sound when pronounced in a non-Scottish accent, so I'm not sure if that is the best example?

Similar to a k sound, but not so. ok how about chrzan and heya? but this only works for people who are not from Poland. To us from other countries we can tell the difference. But for Polish people they say there isnt any difference in sound. The way they pronounce it depends on the letters before and after the ch or h. That is why it sounds different to us jonny foreigners.

End of argument.

Life / Looking for heartburn remedies in Krakow. [36]

I haven't seen them anywhere, I must be looking in the wrong places!

You can get them in normal shops, I do worry about you sometimes. Bloody one illness after another. Stop smoking and drinking and you will be ok!

Love / What is your opinion on the Polish Ladies in Krakow? [82]

Hi Dave,

I think you are from the UK.
So you should be an expert on men desperate for women, yes?

I've never had a problem finding a lass, but if you need some advice, shoot i'll even throw some in your direction. Seems you're a bit of an odd ball, or in need of a screw. So take some laxative, sh1t in a tube, freeze it and go feck yourself with it ;)

UK, Ireland / Belfast Telegraph won't print my comment. [133]

like 68% of the Irish

So then you are opposed to 32% of Irish people...strange, that sounds a bit bigoted. Though that is the impression im hearing anyway.

I opposse all plantations, be they Protestant or Polish!

Its your own country, you voted to be part of the E.U and accept the huge donations thrown at you by it.

Wages are crashing, 400,000 on the dole

So stop being a lazy ****** and go out and tell people to look for a job, any job, toilet cleaning still pays a wage.

The 32% probably consists of immigrants, business men, and lefties.

Of course it does, and going by the fact not one Irish guy here accepts your views kinda makes me think otherwise. Do you have an Irish version of the dailly toilet paper where you seek out this BS?

I have a job and a decent amount of cash in the bank.

And so we are led to believe, by owning a business in a foreign country. What right have you to be in Spain?

If the Spanish want to repatriate me, fair enough. I spend 6 weeks there over the course of the year. Employing five locals full time and two part time.

Were you not offering a job to another Irish guy on these forums just the other day?
So you spend 6 weeks there and most of your profit is spent where exactly?
What benefit do you have for the country, that another unemployed Spanish person couldnt do?

a lot of Protestants turned out to be very decent Irishmen.

A point lost on our bigoted friend, you don't have to be Catholic to be Irish.

So you put all your profits straight back into the business? How do you make your way through life?

So you would agree to the same principal for Polish people who buy bars in Ireland.
On the same note, what about British people moving to Ireland, for work or buying holiday homes.

All of my profits go back into the bar, all employees are Spanish. What part of this do you not understand?

I don't understand why you offered the same person u are replying to a job there.
Where is the bar, and what is its name?

thats none of your business.

Who I am and what I do is none of your business.

Who are the Polish people in Ireland and what have they to do with you?
Are you in fact Irish?

You cannot compare this to mass immigration to Ireland from Poland.

So how many of your small island went to the states? On mass? compared to the amount of Poles in Ireland now?
How many Irish are in Boston for example?

Polish immigration into Ireland, is the equivalent of every Irish citizen resident in Ireland, emigrating to Poland. All three and a half million of them.

Do you even know maths, for a bar owner thats the biggest piece of crap ever. Your last statement means that every Pole in Poland now lives in Ireland.

BNP??? or Irish??? cmon, you can show your true colours.

Yes, yes I am. They are in my country, against the will of the majority. It is my business.

And im sure the Spanish feel the same about the mass Brits and Irish in the costa now.

I'd like you to explain ;)

Official number of Poles in Ireland is around 200,000. So you are telling me that there is only 200,000 Irish n Ireland.

Again, how many Irish left for the states?

has benefitted the Irish working class.

Something that u are not.

Polish population:38,000,000

Number of Polish issued with PPS numbers in Ireland: 350,000

This equals 0.0092% of Polish population.

Irish citizens resident in Ireland:3,500,000

Times this with the same percentage = 32236.75

So according to maths, and your logic, the equivalent immigration for Irish going to Poland would be 32237.
Do your Spanish friends know about your great mathematical and financial sense? I certainly wouldn't employ someone who thought 3.5million was the same as 30k....

Name of bar, and again are you really Irish? cos i doubt it, I think you are BNP trying to stir crap in Ireland.

Life / Why build a supermarket with 20 checkouts with only 3 till staff? [46]

Agreed, I hate this too. I bought a packet of razors today from Real, 1 pack took me 25minutes to buy! Then when I got to the checkout, because I only had 50pln note, I had to wait a further 5 mins for them to get some change. Grrrr I wanted to slap the biatch.

Food / Asian Grocers - Krakow [10]

There are no Asian grocers here so Alma is your best bet.

Oh yes there is :)

An Indian supply shop, on plac na groblach ;) Near the Sheraton. Not sure they are still doing business but i used to get my stuff from there. Quite good indeed.

On the Chinese/Vietnamese places to eat here.....avoid any of those cheap tacky places painted in red. Biggest rip off in the world unless u want a cheap plate of crap to fill u up :)

UK, Ireland / Irish Primary schools to teach Polish [223]

Blacks originate in Africa, they are not indigenous to Ireland, African Irish is what they term themselves. South African President Zuma, has said this week that the whites in SA can never be real Africans. Is he a racist too?

Well in those terms you could argue that the whole human race originates from Africa. Or that most Irish would find that their DNA originates from Scandinavia.

I wonder if its a bit like the Hitler thing, maybe his mother was Polish but couldn't put up with him, so dump him on the street. Not that I know any Polish mums like that.

I think it's good that the school authority there have recognised the need for an additional (and useful) language.

Plus that fact that more and more people from abroad and the uk are moving over to Poland to learn more about the culture and work here. The amount of times i've been approached to find someone a job in Krakow is amazing. There is a huge ex-pat community here which adds a lot of value to the city I think.

There are less than 1,000 Irish in Poland.

Yeah, geeez, thats news to me, and I live here. What about the 400 or so in this city alone?

At the expense of the Irish taxpayer

Also Polish, Romanian, German, British tax payer in Ireland. Oh and also at the European tax payers who dont live in IReland but still continue to have a proportion of their tax given to Ireland via the E.U.

Old saying, dont bite the hand that feeds you ;)

Where would Ireland be now without its E.U grants?

We wouldnt have over a million foreigners here

Is that part of the topic. Over a million you say? now 1/3 of Ireland has been over run??!!
Atleast the women will get better looking than the normal inhabitants ;)

Oh I speak Polish, English, a little Scots gaelic, though i havent practiced it in a long time, I know some Filipino, and to top it of im learning Spanish now ;)

How many billions has Ireland received from the EU compared with other countries?
How much is it receiving now when Europe is begging for cash?

SeanBM and Dtaylor

Dtaylor said he speaks a little of this and a little of that.

Is that right? rather than the google translate crap u used before?

Able to speak with native speakers without difficulty. To be able to hold a conversation.

Excellent, thanks, i must be fluent sharing a flat with 3 other Poles who dont speak English ;)

So come on, impress us all ;)

and she is not trained to deal with non English speaking foreigners. Oh there are only three Irish in the class. Out of 34. Madness.

What school is this?

First off it will be Polish. Then Polish history. You get the picture, this is being orchestrated by a Polish lobby group. Once you give in to own of their demands, it snowballs.

I really hate saying this, but im starting to think about ur real motives being here. What have u contributed?

from 2007

Bit outdated, anything from now?

So maybe ill take the sensible approach with you, rather than thinking you are just a tosser with too much time doing nothing.
So lets make an example from me. I speak Polish fluently, When I lived in Scotland and worked as a psych nurse in some of the hardest hospitals in Glasgow, I also had a relationship with a Polish girl, and lived with her for 1 and a half years before we moved to Poland 5 years ago. **** happens and we are not together, but remain good friends. She had a better job in Scotland, and I chose to stay here in Krakow. I have my own business here, I teach too, and I work for an International business which has its financial HQ in the world in Krakow. You could argue that I am stealing many jobs because of that, so should I leave Poland?
