Language / Polish was chosen the HARDEST LANGUAGE in the world to learn... :D [1558]

Genau!

As in "Donaudampfschiffahrtsgesellschaftskapitän"

Which gender? Easy... "....kapitän" is male:
"DER Donaudampfschiffahrtsgesellschaftskapitän"

But what about

"Donaudampfschiffahrtsgesellschaftskapitänsmütze"?

also easy because "...mütze" is female:
"DIE Donaudampfschiffahrtsgesellschaftskapitänsmütze"

but the diminuitive form would mean

"DAS Donaudampfschiffahrtsgesellschaftskapitänsmützchen"

See!

Well...it has a "chen" and you don't know if it's a boy or a girl so using neuter is a good guess!

If you like to speak about an explicit male guinea pig you would say:
"Das männliche Meerschweinchen"

(In german the name of a male pig is "Eber"...so you could try "Der Meereber (fully male)"...but I'm not so sure about that...

It's also DAS Merkelchen...you know? Even as Mrs. Merkel is a female...

Coool!

He is so right:

DAS Stühl-chen
DAS Windel-chen
DAS Hünd-chen
DAS Mäd-chen
DAS Jüngel-chen (diminuitive boy)
DAS Flugzeug-chen (okay...I made this one up)

DAS Bratwürst-chen

We have definitely more vowels!
For me the lack of it would make it a harder language as I would never have the chance to speak it is it would be right...that would suck! :(


With german it's the same...

Language / Polish was chosen the HARDEST LANGUAGE in the world to learn... :D [1558]


DER Mann (man) - male

DIE Frau (woman) - female

DAS Kind (child) - neuter (because we do not know yet what it will be)

See? All easy and logical! :)

Okay...but I have no idea why it is

DER Junge (boy) male

but

DAS Mädchen (girl) neuter

Genealogy / THE MEANING AND RESEARCH OF MY POLISH LAST NAME, SURNAME? [4500]

That is totally different!

As the surnames became fashion several centuries back the actual profession like baker or cartwright played a big role also often the place of living or outstanding characteristics like height and such.

But denigrating nicknames don't make logical family surnames because those families most likely already had proper surnames as they came into contact with a hostile, foreign population.

Also when one looks at the link about the "Niemczuras" in the US they seem to be polish families, not german ones...

Genealogy / THE MEANING AND RESEARCH OF MY POLISH LAST NAME, SURNAME? [4500]


But these family surnames are so much older than anything "Kraut", or "Hitlerite"...

Genealogy / THE MEANING AND RESEARCH OF MY POLISH LAST NAME, SURNAME? [4500]

Hmmm....doubtfull...just google this name:
google.com/search?hl=en&q=Niemczura&btnG=Google+Search&aq=f&oq=

It seems to be an international quite wide spread surname...
A somewhat unlogical development if that would had be seen as a nick.
Family names are seldom derogatory nicknames given by enemies! :)

(Or they just forgot to tell them...)

Food / Polish Milk Soup [72]


Interesting history

de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milchsuppe

Milk soup was used in the first Kappeler war. There it was eaten in 1529 as a conciliation meal.
The reformed citizen of Zurich gave the bread and the catholic Swiss gave the milk.

Where do I quote myself?

And yes, I love to eat fish too and I dare to say that Germany does much more for clean waters than Ukraine!
Do you even have a green party?


Oh puuuuleeeeeeze!


Then make up your mind...either a second Ribbentrop-Molotov pact or help.
Believe me...we are not happy to pay for Ukrainians duties. And of course we do it "for our own sake". We need functioning pipelines! We need the gas!!!

Ukraine can't be trusted with either the delivery nor the maintaining of the needed infrastructure...
Here you have a reason why we need alternatives first hand!

News / Is NORD STREAM dangerous for Poland's natural enviroment? [516]


That wasn't my "smart" idea to call it a "gas war" or to state the Ukraine "won" it...


Germany is a world leader in green, environmental friendly politics and technology for decades now! Ukraine is so not!
When you use arguments then please be honest at least and don't pretend you give a shit about the baltic see and her fish!


There wouldn't be no need to search for other ways if the Ukraine would be a reliable partner...
For western Europeans (not only Germans!) it looks like countries like Ukraine are the "choke" on Europe, unreliable disrupting the gas deliveries either because of neglect of the pipelines or bad will due differences with Russia or no money to pay for their own gas hence stealing from the gas bought by western Europe etc.etc.etc, not Russia, sorry...

Oh and Nathan...Germany isn't your enemy!
Just recently the EU agreed to help to renovate the ukrainian pipelines...something the Ukraine should do by herself but can't.
2.5 Bln $ EU money, lot's of it german money and through german support!
Think about it....

Better safe with an alternative than sorry...I don't trust the Ukraine to deliver the gas to western Europe when they themselves are freezing because they can't pay the Russians.

As a German you would know. But as a nationalistic, germanophobic Pole you are much better in tune with how some Poles call some Germans...there your "pseudo-junkers" etc. fits very well!


Oh but I understood to well...you were speaking of "dying out" people, not some banking problem..again only rafalistic clichès and empty phrases which I countered with info and statistics. And even Darius' experiences speak another language...

Manno Rafal, you are so recognizable and predictable it get's boring!

Nope...I even give you links...as usual!
And as usual YOU are the one producing just clichès, Rafal!

No real German would call them "pseudo junker" or "noblemen" and at the same
time call himself "Elbprinz"! :):):)
And working in a bank, applauding tax fraud...you lived in Hamburg for some years, didn't you? ROFL

"Elbprinz"="Rafal"

You have no idea at all or you wouldn't talk such nonsense.
Back to stealing a poor Oma her pension for you...


A common sense and a brain would be of more use for you!

Eastern Germany and what is now western Poland was for centuries a heavily mixed territory...as Poles now come over to live here Germans go over to live there, often to their families roots, bringing money with them, often opening chances and offering employments...there is nothing wrong with that but getting back to the natural state as it once was.



Do you have an idea how commie and ridiculous that sounds?

PS: Polen is one of the most favourite emmigrant countries for Germans! 4th place overall...topping even the UK!
Now guess how many of those many thousands did chose Poland for heritage reasons?
It couldn't be about the higher living standards or the great employment market possibilities, now can't it!
"very few dying out pseudo junkers" my ass!
