Thanks Goddess for that! I will light a candle in the church tomorrow for the sake of her victory.

News / How will Polish-American relations change if Trump is elected president again? [694]

Yes, 2 to 1.

The first primary elections were organized by IV HS in 2008, when Barack Obama and John McCain were running for president. The second were held in 2012, when Barack Obama and Mitt Romney were running for president. In 2016, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump ran for the highest office, and this was the only time when the school results did not match the real ones in the US.

In 2020, due to the pandemic, the school primaries were not held.

News / Poland hopes to attract hard-working, trouble-free immigarnts - Ukrainian, Belarusians and Vietnamese [139]

Belarussian or Ukrainian migrants are the closest to Poles/Polesses when it comes to culture or language.
However, they still experience the fate of all migrants anywhere - the first generation will always be treated as migrants by natives. Sad but true and nothing can help it.

Here is an interview with a Belarussian woman who has lived in Poland for 6 years and has already realised she will be perceived as a migrant for ever.

- I've been living here for six years, my grandmother was born in this country, and I still feel like a stranger here. For Poles/Polesses, I will always be like that. I even have friends whose parents were Polish, their first language is Polish, but they grew up in Lithuania or Belarus. Nobody treats them as locals.
- The people I meet here are very nice and open. If they pay attention to the accent, it is to praise it. I have never encountered xenophobia
At the same time, Tatiana notes: - Showing me that I'm not from here is not negative, but it's not positive either.
According to the portal kresy.pl, according to analysts from the Picodi.com service, on January 1, 2024, 310,000 Belarusian citizens had a Polish PESEL number in Poland.

I had to find out why. Wilson is more known in Poland than Hoover.

In early 1919, Herbert Hoover became head of the American Relief Administration, which was to help rebuild post-war Europe and organized humanitarian aid for people affected by the war. One of the largest beneficiaries was Poland, which Herbert Hoover visited in August 1919.

- It was a triumphal journey, and his name was widely known in the Polish press and journalism. Next to President Woodrow Wilson, he was the most popular politician.

Because it was you who made that post, imbecile from sewers, not me. It is your moronic duty to say a few words about what you post. If you still don`t understand such basics, it means your fellow rats in the sewer are more intelligent than you. Now go and eat what Cargo left you know where. Ha!!!!

I see you got fixed on johhny`s attempt. :):):) No, forget it coz he was joking and me even more. Think from a completely different perspective.
Hint - this riddle is connected with things I talked about in another thread.

PS. I must admit I find it amasingly fascinating that posters can`t see what it really is. I was sure it would be an instant guess riddle.

Yes, exactly.

As for your previous answers, yes, they are all correct. Terribly sorry, I somehow overlooked your post. I am getting old. :(:(:( Another proof of it is that I provided the same idiom within a few days.
Shyt, I am becoming demented like Novi!!!! That`s what I have always feared most.

Hmm, can I ask how you look for those idioms?? In most cases it is enough to translate directly word for word.

So, check jump in Polish. Then check on and the bomb. When you google the Polish sentence, you will get it immediately. It is very simple.

News / How will Polish-American relations change if Trump is elected president again? [694]

Divine Kamala has already won in Poland!!!

IV High School named after American President Herbert Clark Hoover organized the primaries for the US president for the fourth time. In addition to IV HS, eight schools from Ruda Śląska took part in the simulation: I HS im. Adam Mickiewicz and primary schools no.: 3, 4, 22, 28, 36, 40 and 41.

The simulation is conducted in accordance with the rules of the US elections. Each class represents one state and knows how many electoral votes it has. Later, students vote in their classes and finally, during the finale of the game, they announce the results in individual states. Katarzyna Nowak emphasizes that it is not just fun.

Language / Which books do native Polish people in Poland use to learn Polish? [72]


The two decent boys return to the scout camp. Although scared shytless, they wake up the camp commander. He is unpleasantly surprised and visibly pissed off but seeing the injured roe deer, he softens his attitude and takes care of the animal. The boys can hear a metal clank nearby - when they check it out, they find the poaching trap in the grass, brought by the leader of their group who gave up the expedition and came back, too.

Life / Is Polish church involved in politics too much? [137]


This means they have to take a break from organised religion coz they had too much of it - both at home and school.
It is perfectly natural and I have never told them one bad word about it.
But I am sure they will return to it one day coz mature people usually tend to relive their youth by evoking the experiences they had then.
