News / Is the E.U. good for Poland?? [180]

Poland gets a lot of money from the EU so, in my opinion, it's not a mistake. And it helps when you travel and have to pass countries borders ;)

News / Polish Election Poll (according to PolishForums) [237]

Would that be the ( Wio Wio ).?

Hmm...i think it's the Partiet Kobieta so "PK"... ;p But it's a good idea that women have their own party ;)

• Women's Party (PK) - seven (out of forty-one) regions;
• Patriotic Self-Defense (SOP) - two regions;
• German Minority (MN) - one region;
• National Party of Retirees and Pensioners (KPEiR) - one region.

Didn't know that, thanks ukpolska ;)

News / Is the mayor of warsaw's husband German? [13]

There are quite a lot of German names in Poland, due to the minority, and the past, and maybe the Jews (names ending with "-stein" for example) ;)

Language / I know Russian language - will it help me learn Polish? [105]

Ok thanks Marek ;)
I heard that a glass of vodka make them to understand each other much better... ;P LoL
About Ukrainian, are there words coming from Polish due to the time of Great Poland-Lithuania...
My mother (who is Polish) told me that she can understand some Russian, but it's quite difficult.
It can be compared with French and Italian for example : when i hear an Italian talking, or read an Italian text, i can understand a bit of what it's said, but not all, sure ;)

In Scandinavian languages, namely Swedish, Danish and Norwegian, the differences can lead to erotic jokes!

Language / I know Russian language - will it help me learn Polish? [105]

LoL ;) Even if many words are very similar between these languages, we have to be careful if we don't want to be in a "difficult" situation ;)

By the way, how many and what languages do you speak Marek ?

News / Why so many bad candidates for Poland Prime Minister? [261]

The most interesting fact is that's he is also reported to be connected with PO

He may have too much money and don't know what to do with it, so he's betting on the looser party to get rid of his money... ;p

By the way, who said all that ? the medias ?...

Yep ;) In Poland we speak Polish, that's all. During the Russian occupation, Polish young people had to learn Russian at school...Rrrr !
When Silesia was under the rule of Austria, it was "better", cause they had the right to learn what they wanted ;)
