Law / MISTAKES IN CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION - FAKE DOCUMENT? [7]


I wouldn't have much faith in a company which produced a document like that. Seems like it has already been translated from a foreign language into English (Bad English) I would have thought a genuine company would have had it proof-read before release too.

Language / 24 hour time telling in Poland vs. other countries [29]


I would have to go along with the others. A person in the UK should be able to work out quickly that 17.00 is 5pm. Most people would just add am or pm for meeting or party invites.

Polonia / Is a Visa required for a Polish person traveling to Vietnam? [6]

I'm assuming as Poland is in the EU, the information on this site applies to every EU citizen. It may be worth sending an email to find out for sure.

Language / Pronunciation difficulties for Poles speaking English [40]


I think this must be the same as ś and sz. Hard to tell the difference straight away. Not many British people would put a hut on their head on a cold January morning.


Just glad this word doesn't come up much in everyday conversation.:)

News / Damien Perquis Football player granted Polish citizenship insulted by the PIS ? [30]


It has indeed! Football stopped being a sport a few years ago and has become a big business for players, clubs, the FA and FIFA. Until there is a cap put on the ridiculous money involved in the game, most stadiums in the future will have empty seats, as fans won't be able afford to pay the inflated prices for tickets every season.

UK, Ireland / Feedback needed from Poles confused about English [12]

In the UK there are so many different accents that they might sound the same. A person would probably need to speak very clear to hear the difference. However you could still tell the difference by the context of the sentence.

Love / Help me understand the different mannerisms and mentality of men in Przemysl area! [28]

It seems the OP may have made an"error of judgement" in her post and some members have now corrected her. I'm quite sure that she didn't expect the thread to go this way and would omit that sentence if she could turn back time.

The thread is now reopened in the hope that someone can advise her on her original question about Przemysl.

Life / Polish general knowledge quiz.(for foreigners) [28]

Thank for running the quiz a.k.. Well 50% is not too bad:) I was looking for trick questions and should have had No 20 correct as it's the same in most countries. I also knew the Berlin wall fell in 1989, but for some reason I thought I'd read that the communists stayed for another two years PL. My bad:)

Language / Kurwa? at end of every sentence [51]

Until recently I always thought the word "kurwa" was just used like a comma in a sentence.

Language / The prefix za- [7]

you'll probably need to read up about "aspect in verb pairs" to fully understand. Pytać is the imperfective form of the verb and zapytać is the perfective form.

Language / Conjugation of rąbać (to chop wood) [6]


I think it belongs to the -ę -esz -e -emy -ecie -ą conjugation, but wait until someone confirms this.

UK, Ireland / The British law on someone cutting down a piece of your garden [13]


Sometimes if the local council receive enough complaints about trees being a nuisance and danger to the public, they will trim any overhanging branches themselves. I don't think they can go onto your property though without permission, unless of course they own the property.

Language / VERY BASIC - this is/is this [7]


When asking a question and expecting a yes/no answer it is normal to put the question form "Czy" in front of "to jest." . Kto is also used if asking a question about a person.

A good video indeed and I hope she will make many more.

Language / Indian-Polish Accent. :P [26]

True, or maybe I'm just hearing it wrong. I'm sure shes clever enough to realise that "dzień" is masculine and the qualifier "dobra" is feminine.

Language / Indian-Polish Accent. :P [26]


Your "dzień dobry" sounds like "dzień dobra to me. Is this an error or is the latter also common in Poland?
