News / Poland's Economy Is Booming! The EU's Success Story? [711]

Poland's public sector offers 13% higher wages than the private one, while the gap between the highest and lowest salaries is shrinking, according to the latest report by the Central Statistical Office (GUS), taking into account the data on 8 million employees.

believe me, those articles are nothing but LIES... just like many published news articles and statistics.

Language / Pronunciation of the Polish word 'ty' [4]

you claim u love Poland, and yet u can't even pronounce the most basic of polish words???

'ty' is pronounced like ti in the word 'tip'

after u learn to pronounce that properly, u can further practice with the word: cygan. :D

All white fair skinned and haired Caucasians boys and girls. Fantastic guys, but this homogeneity can get boring in the longer run.

I have nothing against the Polish class look like British,German, French or Dutch one:

you've got to be kidding...

are you even an ethnic Pole??

how could you say such things?!

Returning emigres, of course.

Keep your nation, Polish.

Otherwise it will cease to be Poland.

I concur.

News / Polish Diaspora - many of these 20 million actually speak Polish? [79]

USA: 10,000,000 (Many in Chicago)

it's actually over 11 million, however many of them are Polish nationals who've immigrated from say, the 2nd polish republic, eg. Ukrainians, Belorussians and Jews who've held Polish passports at the time.

and I'm not sure whether or not that takes into account the thousands of illegals from Poland living mostly in the north (especially in New Jersey, Chicago and New York)

so the exact number of ethnic Poles in the US is highly debated.

Brazil: 2,500,000

at least half of them or more are Jewish (again, Polish nationals).

What's interesting is that I remember reading about a year ago how there were somewhere around 1.5-1.8 million 'Poles' living in Israel, and that statistic suddenly vanished from most online sources now (including wikipedia)..
