Polish, language of future - Post-apocalyptic

It just crossed my mind. Polish language is most suitable to replace English in a years that would come in case of EU dissolution and great climatic changes that may occur.

Polish is most western most Slavic language and that way closest to the western Europe, relatively wide spread. It may become logical choice of many people from North to the West of Europe, after eventual racial and ethnic turmoils and/or move of population far from the edge of continent, deeper in European inland- due to climatic changes (most probably flood).

Crow, we would appreciate if you wouldn't create threads about everything what crosses your mind... just keep it for yourself, bottled up... THANK YOU!

(most probably flood).

Given recent and past floods in Poland surely somewhere else would be a safer bet?

How so?

Given the oracle Crow has predicted flooding in the post apocalyptic future and Poland is prone to flooding surely somewhere else that is less prone would be more advisable as the new promised land.

the new promised land.

...is obviously Liverpool since a giant flood would most likely gain an urban improvement grant.

we? weakling. Cover behind others

See, decent man would be more direct.

Polish flood looks like joke in comparison with flood that is inevitable in London. i mean, let us speak openly

Crow, Poland doesn't have a chance in hell of superceding English in the foreseeable future. If it did, well, I wouldn't have too much learning to do :)

In that case you have leg up over your countryman. :) Know something we don't perhaps?

You are speaking Scottish now, Crow ;) ;0

How's your Polish anyway, Crow?

SHT, nah, I've just invested time and effort into learning Polish. I still have a little way to go to be fully comfortable with the grammar.

Crow,I think you would be very sad if London were flooded and sank into water.

you know. It would be sad. One can`t blame people because regime is criminalized. God should restrict flood exclusively on Toni Blair and similar greedy idiots

I do not think that people in the EU would be happy to being obliged mastering the nightmare called Polish Grammar :). Recipe for a continental revolt :)

Yes, Serb... how is your Polish actually?

let them suffer

Serbian or Polish is all the same. Sounds me as two dialects of same language

Polish is a West Slavonian language, as Sorbian, Czech and Slovak.
Serb is a South Slavonian language mixed with Turkish.

It is like saying Danish is the same as Dutch.
Or Portuguese being the same as Romanian.

Hmmm that would be difficult because my family can go back 300 years in the parish registers in the Brabant village they still live in.

Crow, there would be huge resistance to Polish in Germany, France and the UK. I really can't imagine many people from those countries even attempting Polish. My mother is quite linguistically talented but she has too much on her plate to attempt it, though she has the materials.

They are all former Poles and Serbs anyway

prepare you mother for inevitable changes. Tell her `Mother, Polish is coming. If we refuse Serbs would eat us.`/just joking of course/

I don't think so, somehow ;0

Well, there might be a meeting of the parents sometime next year. My wife's parents don't speak English really and my parents most definitely don't speak Polish so learning it would help. I don't want to translate everything along with my wife.

avoid that if possible. Life is complicated enough, even without translation :)
