History / Why will Poland always be the puppet of America? [159]

Who the hell cares about Georgia?

If you don't care, you are a fool. Seeing international politics through your basement window and backyard is primitive , Teresa. You can't care for yourself wthout looking what is going on in your neighbor's house.

America has nothing to gain by supporting Israel

Who said it has? Israel defends Israel - how difficult it is to understand? America is only a purse.

Language / Ukrainian language similar to Polish? [236]

it expresses an authentic soul

What does it mean? It is funny. What about Hungarian it does the same or not?

Cities were russificated for a long time, but suburban areas of those cities (which I imagine you haven't visited) speak mostly Ukrainian.

Nathan, whats your problem? Southern is just giving his own opinion, on how it sounds for an outsider. Is it really that hard to acknowledge that there are certain similarities between slavic speakers? Or is that simply outside the realm for someone as narrow minded as you?

And what is your problem? I just reply. For me it sounds arrogant the way he talks of Bulgarians and Bielarus. Narrow minded, well, for you to judge, for me to decide.

Language / Ukrainian language similar to Polish? [236]

it sounds more like polish than like russian.It sounds between polish and russian but more polish and I suspect that it has more words of polish origin than of russian origin as well.

Tell better how Russian sounds in comparison to Ukrainian - like a harsh dialect. Don't be one-sided squirrel-fighter.

With provincial I mean that the accent is different from russian accent although many words are the same.The intonation is also different

Why don't you say Russian is a dialect of Bulgarian? Bulgaria existed well before Russia even dreamt of.

It is spoken only in western Ukraine and a bit in Kiev

You as always generalize. Majority, maybe, but not "only"

Nathan:
Have you been contusioned during a fight with a squirrel?

But you name some languages dialects of others and Bulgarian is "provincial" for you to Russian. I don't consider your expressions to be correct, not your hearing.

Have you been contusioned during a fight with a squirrel? Bulgarian sounds like what? Provincial? I showed you that you don't know Ukrainian, Russian and I doubt your Polish knowledge. Why do some squirrel fighters try to pretend being something else?

Syncopated? Brrr...

You totally are because you don't know the language.

I am a Ukrainian speaker.

Nobody, you are a Ukrainian speaker? My butt explodes laughing. You said:

Understand what I'm saying in Ukrainian.

Vitayu ya vas. Vi meni poneemayuti po ukrainski?

First half is in Ukrainian, but construction of a sentence is wrong fluencywise. You have to say: Ya was vitayu. The second half is totally wrong. "Vy" - not "Vi", "mene" - not "meni", "poneemayuti" is RUSSIAN (also wrong - "panimayetie" in Russian), the rest is almost right, only "po ukrajinski" is written through a "-" like po-ukrajinski. Don't say what you are not. It is stupid and disrespectful to others.

As far as I know "ponimat" is "razumet" in Ukranian

"rozumity" is "to understand" in Ukrainian
