I am sorry but I am not sure what those technical terms you use mean. I don`t have time to translate, so I think it will be better to let others help you.

Language / Getting the wrong ending of a word - do Polish still understand? [25]


Maybe in English. I quoted the Polish saying, I said it clearly.. :) I think it is closer to life.


Are you talking to me? You talking to me? F...k!

History / Poland's 20th century and modern national heroes? [8]

No, I wasn`t joking. I was dead serious. I simply made a mistake. Errare humanum est.

Life / I'm from Polish descent. CAN YOU GUYS EXPLAIN THE EU TO ME? [115]


Yes, indeed, it is about the EU.

Work / It would help me in my work: A Top of Most Visited Websites by Polish people [11]


Does the most popular auction site, Allegro, count in too?

Classifieds / Maluch restoration party in Poznan with beer [21]


I didn`t know it.
However, I know that maluch means a small vodka shot. No to, po maluchu!

Life / Why do Silesians call people from Warsaw "Gorole"? [15]


I always though it does. Gorole was derived from górale (Highlanders) who came to Silesia from Lesser Poland regions.

History / Poland's 20th century and modern national heroes? [8]


Jarosłąw Kaczyński. He possesses all these features:the most important, altruistic, patriotic, influential and symbolic

Love / Do most Polish women just want a friend or a bf? [13]


Yes, I was going to say the same thing. That is why there is an overrepresentation of females in big Polish cities - the ratio in Krakow is 117 -100. They come to find a good husband who will share life duties, be a responsible father for kids, won`t drink too much and abuse his wife.

Food / Home made fruit vodka from Poland [10]


I once made a nalewka but seeing how much spirit/vodka is needed, I gave up. It is much cheaper and healthier to make your own fruit wine.

Life / Is it hard for a foreigner to give birth in Poland? [15]


If i were you, I would take turns on them. Namely: the first baby born in the USA, the second in Poland and so on. Why? The reason is simple: we should always strive to achieve balance in life, like in nature.

Work / Argentinian wants to study in Poland. What's the best place? [4]

Hmm, if sb is Argentinian and speaks a variation of Spanish, shouldn`t they look for a place abounding in people who use the language? Just to feel like at home? If I were him/her, I would google for Spanish speaking communities in Poland.

Or am I wrong?

Food / Oils and fats in Polish foods [34]


Yes, exactly. But there is a long way between increased awareness and putting it into practice. I eat what I like and don`t care about harmful fats like smalec. Fortunately, I also love olive oil and oily sea fish so I can say my diet is balanced when fats are concerned.


Yes, just like smoking or drinking. However, one guy smokes all his life and lives to 90, another one dies of cancer at 50. The same with margarine. :)

Language / Getting the wrong ending of a word - do Polish still understand? [25]


It is pretty obvious you don`t know these Polish words of wisdom: Better is the enemy of good. :):)


Yes, but check out what one pister said:

Yes, but

Study / Scholarships for non-EU students for English-taught programs in Poland [14]

Maf, you scared the lady off with your innocent question.

News / Are there interests that Poland share with Russia? [50]


Russia will never announce such support coz independent Ukraine is a pain in the ass for the Kremlin. However, Ukraine has resisted Russia successfully so far. Good luck.

Language / Getting the wrong ending of a word - do Polish still understand? [25]


Yes, why not? If you say Chrząszcza brzmi w trzcina w Szczebrzeszyna, Poles will still understand it.

Food / Oils and fats in Polish foods [34]


Just like in 2010, it is still quite impossible to create such statistics coz such preferences can be versatile and depending on purely personal choice. E..g, in my family, my wife and kids use butter for sandwiches, grandparents margarine while I use nothing or smalec (melt lard) with skwarki.

Work / I'm interested in teaching in Poland and I need some help. [33]

Such threads and posts asking about English teaching opportunities in Poland were plentiful 10 years ago. I haven`t read even a single one in 2019. Why? What happened?

Travel / Moving To Krakow, looking for hidden gems [25]


Hmmm
e.g.,
Such a place is IS-2 tank exhibited in the street. The only tank monument in Krakow.

E.g, Mito Grey toilet goes for 200 PLN. I have had similar two ones since 2014 in the summer house and they are basic but OK. 10 year warranty.

But, if you want, you can get a fancy black one for 875. Of course, fancier ones are more expensive, even 5000.

So, what do you want?

A good standard is ambiguous. Practically everything what you can buy in shops today is of good standard. The main difference is between typical and fancy. Depending on what you expect, the total cost ranges from 20.000 to 50.000 PLN.

They claim no living butterfly was harmed in the process of artistic creation.

There wasn`t the creator`s name under the pictures. I wonder if they were made by uni students (the Insect Days are held at the Agricultural University).


No. Easy would mean we guess instantly. But your latest riddles made me think hard.

Life / Latest urban art in Łódz - what do you see? [20]

Food / Need some Polish dessert recipes [47]


Not yet. I am going to use the same one but with freshly ground cheese.


Yes, and when I opened the tub there was a little water on top. That could be the reason.

Life / Latest urban art in Łódz - what do you see? [20]

The question is not if but how many. If you hope for hundreds or thousands taking part, you might get disappointed. However, if a dozen are enough to you, why not try. :):)

Travel / Poland in photo riddles [3134]

Recalling your itenerary in Poland, you must have visited the death/concentration camp in Lublin: Majdanek. This is an installation called Shrine to commemorate all Nameless Victims of the camp. Philip`s suggestion was useful.

Life / Is the palace in Warsaw going to be rebuilt? [29]

Anybody who is for the rebuilding of the Palace and originally comes from Warsaw - I shut up and do as you wish.

In other cases, I am against.

:):)

Nope. They are butterfly wings and they show those pics each year at the Insect Days in Krakow.

The artist is Tadeusz Makowski. Quite costly today.
