So, I find myself continually saying "Excuse me", "Check Please", "Please", "Sir" as well as often saying the Russian names for various foods.
No one sneers, but I have had a couple of blank looks and blank stares from those who apparently can;t make out my Russian.
A few years ago in Warsaw I noticed that some Russians didn't appear to be...mmm..."appreciated" very much. Then with the plane crash incident and the radar politics and gas negotiations I wasn't expecting much change.
What is the mood among the Polish people towards the Russian Federation and language these days?
