Language / Learning Polish to communicate with my boyfriend's family - where to start? [16]
come to poland, enroll in an intensive polish class. for instance, the ones organized by Wroclaw University of Tech or Lodz University and trust me, in 6 months you'll be speaking polish that makes sense....like me. but well that depends also on how fast you grab things as the polish grammar is way "off". all the best.
also speak with your bf in polish ;)

Language / What has been the hardest language for you to learn? [81]
for me none. i thought polish was tough, but it's not. when you understand the grammar, you come to realise it's one of the most beautiful languages on the planet. i like it. it makes me think and use my brain which is yet another reason i'm in love with this language.

yeah you know. i do this. but sometimes they are teaching something in polish, they say something, and there's nothing like that in English with google translator!! and it's hard to find out what they are talking about :(. so i end up not knowing. i know math is the same everywhere.
in my lectures, sometimes they say somethings that i can't find English translation for. and it's hard to find what they are talking about.

Language / Pomówić usage [5]
I'm reading this grammar book and came across this sentence:
"Jesteś moim studentem już od trzech lat. Możemy więc pomówić szczerze."
I checked the meaning of "pomówić" = slander, accuse.
The meaning doesn't fit. Could it be that the book is not using the word "pomówić" right or it has another meaning? If it does, I want to know.
Thanks.

Law / Pepper Spray Legality in Poland [9]
I'm a young black male studying in Poland. I've been in Poland for approximately 2 years now and I live in Wroclaw.
When I go out at night I usually meet some racists and people who are unhappy that I'm black and living in this country.
I don't know why but that's their problem. My problem is I can't own a gun or any weapon when some of these guys get
really out of control.
Few days ago, I was attacked by one bouncer in Pasaz Niepolda. I was standing outside [Just STANDING!!] when one bouncer
walked towards me and started screaming shouting stuff like "wypierdalaj stąd..." I COMPLETELY ignored him so he felt he
was talking to a brick wall. I didn't react. I realised the other bouncers where standing just few meters away waiting for me to
react so we can start a fight. But that's not what I want. I don't want to fight anyone over stupid reasons like they're black, green or blue.
This bouncer pushed really hard expecting I'd fall trying to provoke me. Then he hit me REALLY hard in the face that
for a couple of hours I couldn't feel my face. That has be my first real physical attack in Poland. Usually they insult me...but I don't
care about that.
Is it legal for me to have a pepper spray with me here in Poland. Will I need any permission to use it. And if in self-defence, I spray
some ****, will I have problems with the law?
I don't want to hurt anyone, just in the same way I would hate someone to hit me for NO REASON.

Law / My package (postal) is being held at Zabrze, how can I get it released? [4]
So I had my uncle send me a phone from USA through USPS which works with Poczta Polska I believe. I kept checking the tracking number and realised that the item goes through customs clearance twice each day. My uncle asked me to call Poczta Polska and they told me item is "zatrzymywany węzeł ekspedycyjno-rozdzielczy w zabrzu". The item is marked as a "gift" and they don't want to release the device. I keep calling them and no one picks up, at some point the phone is busy but no one ever picks my call. This is not normal but has anyone had problems like this and what can I do to get my item.
Woman at Poczta Polska told me maybe they need some "faktura" but how can a gift have that? Why don't they want to release my package?
Do they even know what's in the package? If yes, do they have the right to open it without my consent or presence?

@Wulkan: there is a female tenant who is going to MOVE OUT on 1.08.2014!! so i'll occupy her room. in fact the are two girls in 2 rooms who are both moving out. and 2 boys moving in. me, and some Damian guy (polish). the landlady agreed to sign a contract with Damian. but not with me :D. i have a gf why should i stay with another girl??? :/
"One day if you get hit by a lightening it will be because you are black isn't it? I see you mastered playing racial card to the perfection, keep up the good work." = ?????
you're polish, naturally you'll defend them so i'm not surprised. and you tell me i mastered playing the racial card? you should see a doctor.
well i'm happy. if my gf parents don't want me. i don't care! if the landlady doesn't want to give me her room, i don't give a flying ****! BUT the only case i care is when these bastards spat on us and stabbed my friend. that's when i start to worry. and you couldn't even tell that smile was sarcastic. your iq is quite low.

of course when i'm walking in town people insult me. say nasty things to me. that's ok. i don't care. and i don't react. but dare you not touch me. they spat on me.
they got their fair share of punches from me. but too bad my friend is not as hard as me. but i did teach 2 of them a lesson so i'm happy...just not happy about my friend.
