UK, Ireland / WHAT IS IT ABOUT POLISH PEOPLE THAT MAKES THEM THINK THAT UK WANTS THEM? [309]


Statements like this make me ashamed to be English..

Love / Do some Polish women prefer older men for money? [57]

I think people who struggled or had family that struggled with money through childhood do value money (a higher standard of living) as a bigger quality than people who did not struggle, as they know what life is like on the breadline, I have been told this by many Polish women and men. Money, or more wealth as in assets does have a higher importance than some would place on these things, though who can blame them when many of my friends parents apparently could hardly afford to put food on the table, it's no a bad thing.

Language / GCSE Polish experience. [51]

Where can you even sit accredited Polish courses in England? I have been trying to find one for a while!

Language / Useful tips on learning Polish? [25]

I have been learning Polish myself and the university of Pitts Polish course is amazing, though it is not for absolute beginners. To begin you should learn the alphabet! this is most important as you will need to know the alphabet and sounds that certain combination of letters make to be able to read and pronounce words right. Then go to youtube and watch videos on there of phrases and gramatical case, look up the grammatical cases on wiki (there are seven) and learn the rules to them. ivona.com helps with pronunciation!! then start the online Polish course! you do no have to sign up and all the material is printable, free and at degree level for true deep understanding of the language! This Polish course is for beginners/intermediate learners, you should be fine with it! I am up to lekcja czwarta and my boyfriend (who is Polish) is absolutely amazed with how much I can understand/read/write/say. Good luck!

Australia / Teaching my friend english, no experience [8]

youtube is a great way to begin with, as it helps with pronunciation as well. It is going to be a long slog, Iet's hope you are up to it!

Work / English native speaker without a teaching experience moved to Poland and got a job [66]

A native English speaker would know that there would be no "a" before "teaching experience"

Don't be so pedantic, he was probably trying to shorten the title and forgot to proof read :)

Language / Using first year Polish material from Uni Pitts and have questions about grammar please? [4]

Thanks for that! they did translate it as "what big ants!" as in amazement at their size, so I do think it was right. Thanks for the help! (I won't be asking my boyfriend for any help in the future..which is probably why he did it...
