Po polsku / Chef - polskie tlumaczenie [6]


:) znalazlam tam rowniez pomoc mastera shushi

Dzieki Strzyga. Chyba pozostaje przetlumaczenie chef jako kucharz i opisanie obowiazkow.

Tlumaczenie jest dla kogos kto kilka lat pracowal jako private chef, potem w restauracji jako chefodpowiedzialny za seafood, ale nie jako executive chef czyl szef kuchni odpowiedzialny za cale menu. Jako seafood chef mial jednego sous chefa.

Po polsku / Chef - polskie tlumaczenie [6]

Dzieki. Sama sie nad tym szefem kuchni zastanawialam, ale cos mi nie pasuje. Bo jak np. przetlumaczyc a private chef? Albo jak w restauracji jest dwoch chefow i czterech sous-chefow. Dwoch szefow kuchni i czterech zastepcow szefow kuchni?? Tak? Jakos to brzmi niezrecznie.

Albo sushi chef. Czy to sie tlumaczy?

Language / "żółwik" - the same word?? [55]

a.k and gumishu. My reply was only to a question if a simple sentence Muzyka Mozarta podoba mi się is correct. I didn't want to go in details about any variations ,forms and exceptions because I didn't want to confuse anyone who is a beginner learning Polish.

And of course, I totally agree with both your posts.

Language / Do the Polish words for 'please' and 'piglet' sound very similar? [24]


The spelling with a double dż is correct.

Language / Czarny i czerń, is there a gramatical explanation for czerń? [10]

Polish title of the movie Men in black is Faceci w czerni

Language / "żółwik" - the same word?? [55]


Muzyka Mozarta podoba mi się i Podoba mi się muzyka Mazarta have exactly the same meaning but Muzyka Mozarta podoba mi się is grammatically incorrect or at least weird sounding. Polish sentence is usually arranged this way: subject - verb -object.

So a native people would always say: Podoba mi się muzyka Mozarta, Lubię Mozarta, Kocham mamę and never Mozarta lubię. Mamę kocham

Language / "żółwik" - the same word?? [55]

gumishu, salad could be sałata or sałatka. I agree with you that most native speakers will call a salad sałatka, but not all, and not always.

From one of my favourite recipe sites here are some examples of lettuce-free sałata:

Sałata z selera z bakaliami i kurczakiem marynowanym w herbacie:

Ciepła sałata z botwiny i kurzych wątróbek z pistacjami

Language / "żółwik" - the same word?? [55]

I am a native speaker and I would have no problem to say either Lubię bangee jumping or or Bangee jumping mi się podoba. Both sound fine to me

But at the exact moment I am hanging in the air after making my very first jump I would most likely say: podoba mi się

Pan Zuk Gnojowy:
Any examples in the reverse? or more examples of this phenomenon?

lakier do paznokci - nail polish
lakier fo włosów - hairspray
lakier - varnish
lakier samochodowy - car paint

sałata - lettuce
sałata - salad

Po polsku / Jaki seriale polecacie dla dorosłych? [30]

Oczywiście, że siostry, na córkę trochę za stara :) Nie wiem dlaczego napisałam córka.
Dzięki za sprostowanie.

Po polsku / Jaki seriale polecacie dla dorosłych? [30]

Ja specjalnie wielu polskich ani innych seriali nie oglądam, ale bardzo mi się spodobał nowy polski serial Głęboka woda w reżyserii Magdaleny £azarkiewicz (córki Agnieszki Holland). Obejrzałam pięć piewszych odcinków i każdy bardzo fajny.

Serial ukazuje perypetie grupy pracowników ośrodka pomocy społecznej. To ludzie o wielkiej wrażliwości na losy wszystkich potrzebujących, słabszych, porzucony przez najbliższych, a często również zepchniętych na margines społeczeństwa.

A z komediowych seriali to bardzo mnie śmieszy serial pt. Ludzie Chudego. Zdaje się, że to polska wersja bardzo popularnego hiszpańskiego serialu.

Law / Bringing a Car to Poland from outside of EU? [6]

I sugest you contact your nearest Polish Consulate to get all details on "mienie przesiedlenia".

Here is the Polish Customs website: mf.gov.pl/dokument.php?const=2&id=47197&dzial=525

Law / Bringing a Car to Poland from outside of EU? [6]

You can have it registered in Poland duty and tax free as "mienie przesiedlenia" (settler's effects) if you or your wife has a Polish citizenship. The car has to be registered outside Poland in your name for at least 6 months before you can claim it as your "mienie przesiedlenia" in Poland.

You don't have to be permanently settled in Poland to bring your "minie przesiedlenia"

Po polsku / Szczęśliwy piątek [6]

Jutro pracuję i w niedzielę jadę do miasta. Tam spotykam się z bratem na obiad.

This is a perfect grammar
but
a Polish person would most likely say:
Jutro pracuję, a w niedzielę jadę do miasta, gdzie spotykam się z bratem na obiedzie.

This sounds more "natural"

Language / Is this proper Polish grammar? If it is, can you explain how it is? [32]

This is czas zaprzeszły (Past Perfect Tense).

Here is a nice and short lesson:
The Past Perfect Tense

Surprised? Yes, dear readers, the Polish language officially has the past perfect tense, although it is mentioned in grammar books only formally. Nowadays it is used more often in speech to add a unique, ironic flavor to what is being said. It ceased to exist in regular use at the beginning of the 20th century; however, its elements still play a vital role in the Polish modal "powinien” ("ought to”). Example: pisałem był (I had been writing), pisałeś był (you had been writing), pisał był (he had been writing). Expressing "ought to” in the past tense: powinienem był/powinieneś był, powinien był. The past perfect is to some extent also reflected in the Polish conditional: the particles -bym; -byśmy, -byś; -byście, and -by are movable and sometimes present difficulties for even Polish experts.

Example:

Jeśli chcielibyście to kupić, to chętnie to sprzedam. = Jeśli byście chcieli to kupić, to chętnie to sprzedam. – both versions mean if you would like to buy it, I will gladly sell it, and are correct, but the position depends on the stylistic needs of the author.

Genealogy / A long shot but... -looking for any info about Krawczyk & Sasiadek family [2]

Krawczyk is a very common Polish surname. I think you will have a better luck with Sąsiadek (pls note the proper Polish spelling).
Wschowa is relatively a small town (14 thousand residents). On Polish Facebook called Nasza Klasa, there are 2 people in Wschowa with the last name Sąsiadek: Emilia a very young girl and Katarzyna who is "connected" on NK to 8 other people with the same last name among them Krzysztof Sąsiadek who now lives in Norwich, England and Paweł Sąsiadek who doesn't disclose his location. Pawel is 30 yo.

According to NK, there 23 people with the surame Krawczyk in Wschowa

I also found these businesses in Wschowa:

P.H.U. Sąsiadek Bartłomiej
Daszyńskiego 12/2, 67-400 Wschowa
tel:781-317-479

(Bartek a diminutive of Bartłomiej)

and

at Ogrodowa 27 there is also another business registered that belongs to Romuald Sąsiadek

Genealogy / Trying to locate information on my Great Uncle Frank Pryeor [9]


The name of the village is Tywonia, in the district of Jaroslaw. I googled it and Tywonia is 4 km away from Jaroslaw and just over 100 kms from Tarnowiec

The father is Josephus which is latin for Józef, last name Przewor, resident (incola) of Tywonia (district Jaroslaw), son of Josephus Przewor and Agatha (Agata) maiden name Kosik .

Mother is Ludovica (Ludwika) daughter of Nicolai (Mikołaj) can't read his last name and Marianna, unable to read the rest

I think that Nikolai's last is Sołtys (it means a village leader in Polish, ) relatively commom last name
