Life / Polish stereotypes of other nationalities!? [472]
I didn't do it, because I think everything was said here. And all this reapiting about how you like to exterminate us and destroying our cities and all this talking about "mother Russia" and "slavic brotherhood" etc. etc, you know I would rubbed my keyboard typing this ********* ;)
My grandmother used to say that during the war there's was white Russians and yellow Russians (with oblique eyes). And those yellow ones were real animals. They destroyed everything with no reason. She ones said about one Russsian, who stoled alarm clock and had it in his bag. And when than clock started to ring, he took the gun and started to shot to the bag. He just didn't know what was the alarm clock....
I love to read Dostojewski and I know that's not true but for my grandma all Russians will always be incredible stupid.

Language / Usage: Freedom in Polish and in English [30]
That's is not true. Wolnomysliciel have only one meaning. Do you use "wolnomysliciel" to tell abouth somebody that they think slow ???
wolny = free
powolny/powoli =slow
So wolnomyśliciel - a free thinker - may also be a slow thinker :)

Is there a relationship in Polish between 'wolny' and 'powoli'?
wolny = free
powolny/powoli =slow

Life / Polish stereotypes of other nationalities!? [472]
Germans: They're normal people but.... there is one moment in their life, it could be the night between Monday and Tuesday or time between bread and tampons during the shopping and in that one exact moment they become Nazis and start to invade us ! Of course I'm joking but my granparents really think that way. In 50's when the road in my grandparent's village was repairing, the workers found two corps of German soldiers under the neighbor's driveway. The neighbor, over 90 years old man came out and said "Don't dig them up! They deserve it!" So Germans are completely untrustworthy.
Frenchs: cowards, cowards, cowards. The're are some jokes about them:
- What "Maginot" means?
- "Welcome!"
-How many Frenchs needs to defend Paris ?
- Nobody knows. Frenchs have never tried.
Czechs: funny language, great writers and movies
Slovakia: we like them more than Czechs and regard them as very nice people so similar to us
Ukraina: though the historical animosities and centuries of killing each other, we find them as very likeable. They have strong personalities and know how to drink :) Poles like to visit ukrainian cities like Lwow, because many Poles have lived there before the war (and we want them back! mwhaahahhaha ! ;) just kidding)
Hungary: We like them A LOT. Perhaps because we are no neighbors... Polak, Wegier dwa bratanki i do bitki i do szklanki!
Italy: all Italian mankinds live with their mothers but they don't admit it and try to be very macho. They can't be treat seriously, their goverment is like a circus with monkeys.
England: we used to see them as gentlemans but... when they started to puke to our fountains, run naked and drink vodka (which is not a good idea for Englishmans) we changed our minds. They are conceived as very, very, very ugly and with their very, very, very ugly women have very,very,very ugly childrens.
Scotland: there's is hardly to tell apart Scottish man from Scottish woman. They both have beards and wearing skirts. The only difference is that Scottish man have some strange feelings to his sheeps...
Ireland: they're all red, like the leperkuns. But we have sympathy to them because of similar history, occupations, ban on using language etc. By the way we don't understand why Irishmans don't speak Irish.
Sweden: they drink a lot and they drink everything with the exeption of asphalt. They all have blond hairs and blue eyes and sing Abba all day long. And they have constant depression.
Gypsies: their women steal little Polish children and sell to Angelina Jolie....
I wanna say everything I wrote are stereotypes. Scottish men doesn't f*ck sheeps, Gypsies don't steal the children. But Frenchs are still cowards :x ;)

Well maybe I can show here something interesting. I'm from Poznan, city-fortress and it can be seen on every corner in this city. So I have some intrestong photo comparisions how the architecture was changing. It used to say that buildings in Posen was destroyed to far less extent (hmm I have strang feeling that there's something wrong with this sentence...) than in other cities. It's because prussian way of building which was considered as very solid. And I can say that's true because when you compare today photos and those from 30's there are almost no differences.
