Life / Wanna buy a rubber/condom (in Rossmann in Poznan)? [51]

And Szczotka or maybe Strzutka...?

Yup, and still had it last summer when i visited him.

Language / Poles! How do you cope with English phonetics versus English spelling? [37]


English is a very easy language, but it has one difficulty, its pronunciation ;)
It may take several years to 'master' the language, especially its pronunciation.

As to French, i agree, there's a real difference between the way you write and the way you spell it, but on the whole, i think English is 'worse' ;)

Language / SZCZ and ŚĆ HARD TO EXPLAIN [19]

Well, there are also differences of pronunciation in Poland, depending on the regions.

Language / ANGLOS HAVE TROUBLE WITH SZCZ, SOME WITH TRILLED 'R' [22]

Hehe ^^
I'm a bit disappointed, i saw a vid once, with English commentaries, great goal by Kuba against Bayern a few months ago, and they said something like 'what a wonderful goal by Kuba, the man with a name so long they had to write Kuba in the back of his shirt', lol, just tried to find it and post it here, but it seems like the vid has been removed. Pity, that was a really nice goal ;)

Language / ANGLOS HAVE TROUBLE WITH SZCZ, SOME WITH TRILLED 'R' [22]

That's why they shortened Borussia player's name Błaszczykowski into Kuba ;)

Cz → like in 'China', can be transcribed [czajna]
Ć → like in 'chill', can be transcribed [ćyl]

Now, Sz → like in 'shark', can be transcribed [sza(r)k]
And, Ś → like 'attention', can be transcribed [-śyn]

What do you think? ^^

Language / ANGLOS HAVE TROUBLE WITH SZCZ, SOME WITH TRILLED 'R' [22]

Noimmi, it is more a matter of history than being superior or inferior. But you may not know that.

Language / English words of Polish origin [19]

I use Wikipedia for more or less general research. I'm not saying that we should trust every single article, but from what i've read, i didn't see any abuse or false statements, maybe i didn't notice them, but when it's coherent, there are chances that the said article is a reliable one.

Language / English words of Polish origin [19]


Why? I've heard scientists saying that science articles were generally good and reliable. The site is thinking of a quality rating system though, to show that certain articles are more reliable than others.


Haha, nice one ;)


I don't go exclusively onto Wikipedia, but i sometimes do cause i know what i can trust and what i cannot ;)

Language / English words of Polish origin [19]


In general, Wikipedia is a reliable site. Most of the articles i've read are well written and trustworthy.


Just been on the page and didn't see it. And even if you did it, someone will remove sooner or later.


Great ;)

Explain why. And find us sth reliable ;)

Love / Polish men vs German men: Who is hotter? [513]


That's why the word is now commonly used throughout the world ^^
Iceland, land of ice and fire. One bad thing: it's soooo expensive, just like Norway ;)


It's okay, don't feel bad for giving your opinion ;)

Love / Polish men vs German men: Who is hotter? [513]

Of course. And Icelanders are for most of them of Norwegian and Danish origin. Btw, i'd love to go there too ;) So far and so beautiful.

Love / Polish men vs German men: Who is hotter? [513]

Sorry, my mistake ;) We can sometimes add Iceland too (culturally close).

Love / Polish men vs German men: Who is hotter? [513]


I'm sure there is even worse ;) What is the capital city of Germany? Dublin. ^^


Actually, can't we say that Finland is situated on the Scandinavian peninsula? I think we can. But we have to add that Finnish people don't belong to the Scandinavian people, but, as you previously said, to Finno-Ugric people, like Hungarians and Estonians :)
