Language / Polish and Hungarian, how similar? [53]

Ok here i am, multi-cultural boy. My family is split between Hungarian, Polish and German. Well, when we get together, TRUST ME, The Magyars cannot understand a word of Polski! They usually split off into 3 rooms, speaking their own languages! It is quite interesting. So now, Polish and Hungarian are NOTHING alike. One is slavic, the other is Uralic

Love / Polish Girls vs Russian Girls [813]

To me, Russian ladies are "butter faces" (but-her-faces), meaning, they usually have rockin' bodies, but their faces are a turn off. (for me). But i have seen quite a few pics of Russian ladies that have the "whole package"

Every polish lady i have seen are not butter faces. They have amazing bodies and their face and eyes melt you away.

But this is just my opinion.

Language / Polish Language in Lates 1800's [7]

How was the language different in that time? My great-grandma learn polish from her parents which were born in that time period. Many many words are very different then what i see on her in "modern polish"

Her mother's family was from Galicia and South-East Poland. We have not foudn any more information on her father's family yet.
Is her spoken polish a geographical thing, or just so different because it was spoken over 100 years ago?

Language / Polish Language in Lates 1800's [7]

Well, my grandma says candle as "stu or stó" instead or (what i remember) its like świec?
there are many other differences.
Oh! she says noły or nołi or nołie for "new" instead of nowego.

Can this be explained? at first i though maybe it was maybe a complete other language, because her father spoke quite a few languages, so yeah. but both her parents spoke Polish and Russian, but my grandma claims they tried teaching them russian, but they couldn't learn it. so they only new polish!

on the "softening" she does this a lot with "sz" and "cz". they are all very soft and subtle. it definitely sounds polish an all, but idk, when i listen to polish online, like on youtube, my grandmas sounds much more soft and different.
