Classifieds / Where do you guys meet in Gdynia or Sopot? [20]

I have not been there for some years but I visited Sopot once or twice when I stayed there in a little hotel. There used to be a little pub that specialized in English and the co owner was a scotsman who originally went to Poland as a teacher of English. They did have problems with planning permission to stay open so I am not too sure now of its status. I think it was called the Language School or club but anybody should be able to tell you where it is. It was located in a small side street behind one of the main streets. It was small and cosey.

Language / Recommended for learners: Michel Thomas Method Polish Audiobook [60]


Whot he probably meant was that in Poland, Polish teachers probably have accents comparable to that of the Germans in Germany. In fact, I had a copy of the Thomas method of learning for Italian. I bought it for 50 pence at my local car boot and sold it on Ebay as I was not very interested in his method or subject. It is quite good, you simply sit back and listen to students learning from scratch with no text to read. I did not know that there was a Polish version. I think in languages like French, where there are lots of conection to English via Latin, it may work quite well but in languages such as Arabic or Chinese, I am not so sure.

Language / How do I pronounce "Kocham Ciebie"? [19]


I would have thought that this should have been written differently. Ja mam coś od ciebie but ja kocham cię.

I think that we will have to wait and find out more before anybody can pass comment as to who did this and why? Maybe, she, the wife, has already promised to be married to someone else earlier on?

I have not read this but I did read that he left Poland when he was ten years of age. His mother's name was Helena or something similar-sounds to me more Polish than Latino.
