What do Polish people think about Greeks ?

hello, i want ask what polish people think about greeks...
im raised in greece and im greek but i found out that i have polish roots, which is something i like because i knew it deep inside because i always liked poland very much... i also have polish facial characteristics...

so what do you people think about greeks

I think you guys really should stop dodging so much taxes.

Are you really called Ella in Greece?

Ellada means Greece in Greek.

yes, ela!

In 2004 we thought that you are one of rich western countries (maybe not rich as Germany, but still way above us) with nice weather superb sea and ancient monuments. Substantial number of Pols even illegally emigrated there. We didn't know much about people.

After 2008 we know that you're shouting, demonstrating, lazy southerns who are having big economic problems and high unemployment thanks to your tax chiting, but still you must be better well off than Poles, because you have nice weather and those who work still do have nominally much higher salaries than we here. Also since 2004 many Poles got reach enough to have vacation there, so most of people know somebody who visited Athens and learned that ancient monuments are in reality just ruins.

We have nothing against you. You are Christian, cradle of European civilization, have never invaded us, so Greeks in Poland are welcomed.

ela, its also a word very common in greece and its one of the first words tourists learn!

I always thought that Ella means come here

Edit


My Daughter is called Ella and you are right

good to hear! everything you said about greeks are true...

You do know of the existence of the Greek Communist minority in Poland, especially near Zgorzelec and Kroscienko?

"You do know of the existence of the Greek Communist minority in Poland, especially near Zgorzelec and Kroscienko?"

Nobody knows that. Some people have heard that some Greeks escaped to Poland from Hunta in communistic times but it's not advertised that anybody except of singer Eleni has stayed here until now. Ok maybe people next to Zgorzelec know about it, but not in the north.

They left long before that - after the Communists lost in the civil war there, some of them certainly did end up in Poland.

Look here - borderidentities.soton.ac.uk/commun02b.htm

it is heard in greece too that a lot of people escaped in poland from hunta...

i actually was born and live in Thessaloniki, Greece and its not as bad as it is in Athens...
I found out that i have polish roots from my grandmother a few mothns ago and i tried to find polish people in my age who live in the same town as me... I heard that there are some Poles every saturday in the Roman Catholic church and ill go sometime.. i also went to the Consulate of the Republic of Poland to ask if there are any schools that i can learn the language because i really want to...

I have a friend from there, over on the East side of the bay.

really?? glad to hear!

Is it reasonable to ask what 38 million people think of 11 million people or what 11 million people think of 38 million people? No. But I can tell you what I think of Greek feta cheese. I like it.

Polish is considered one of the hardest languages to learn. At least to learn conjugation of verbs is pain in ass, because it's mostly plain memorizing. But it's not necessary to conjugate properly in order to be understood and without it, it is same difficult as any other language. Good thing for you is that Greeks can learn perfect pronunciation of polish words. I mean they don't have problems properly pronouncing polish cz ź sz ć and other after a little bit of exercise.

yeah you're right at first i tried to learn a polish song... it took me a week because of some difficult words like "wszystkim" and "zdobędziemy"... the difficult part is the "sz" or "szc" cause i cant hear it from a person so i can get help...
