History / Polish history is 100% glorious [304]

Their economics or their militairy ventures/racial ideology?

You mean compared to Holodomor, Gulags and the Berlin Wall???

;)

There is no point in discussing with sb who is so convinced of their own wrong ideas.

Well..you failed to convince any of us about the "wrongness" of our ideas...I hope I won't have to visit an re-education camp now...;)

A good example is that nonsense that Hitler and his Nazis were left-wingers

Hey...the thread to discuss that is that way ---->

Using elements of Socialism doesn't make you a Socialist,

Sure it does!

When I start to wear a Swastika and use slogans about the Yid you would call me a Nazi, wouldn't you...and why? Because I use elements of the national-socialists...

History / Destruction of Ukrainian churches in Poland in 1938 [289]

The same ukrainian people who were starved to death during the Stalin holodomor?
The same Ukrainians who did greet the Wehrmacht with salt and bread as their liberators from Soviet rule???

Somewhat hard to believe...

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend!"
Nothing new here...WWII was full of that.

History / Destruction of Ukrainian churches in Poland in 1938 [289]

Just read:

"Getting history wrong is part of being a nation."

Joseph-Ernest Renan (France)

...boy is he right!

he then adds:

"National identities are about sheltering us from the truth. National myths twist the facts of history to fit political needs. And they do so not through a positive evocation of identity but through the denigration of others, through creating hostility and fear."

History / Destruction of Ukrainian churches in Poland in 1938 [289]

People, who spoke Ukrainian on the daily basis were polonised or were either forced or convinced to convert to Catholic faith.

Kulturkampf! ;)

. Any assault on people's religous sites, the most

Oh please, how do you think Christianity came to Europe in the first place?
Ask the millions converted by force, or beheaded or burned at stakes if they still resisted...
Christians have no reasons to whine at all! They only get back some of their medicine they once dished out.

History / Time for Slavic Commonwealth around Poland as center [223]

Sometimes i simple want to see what other people think

No you don't!

If you were interested in any discussion you would had accepted by now that you are a lone nutter and nobody sane is interested in a slavic union with you.

But instead you open up yet another thread, trudging out the same lame propaganda, like the broken record you are.

You are not interested what other peoples have to say, you want only to hear yourself talk.

Language / Do Poles prefer US American or UK English language? [185]

How are things back in the old country BB?

We miss our emigrants! ;)

English spoken on the Island of Great Britain and its surrounds should, in my opinion, be referred to as English and the modified version used in America should be called American English.

Just call it German! *ducks and runs*

:):):)

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

HORNBEAM: species of tree, German: Weißbuche (literally 'white beech').
BTW, the beam in hornbeam was older English for tree (related to German Baum). English used to be much closer to German than it is today.

Thank you

History / Good fences make good neighbors. [13]

Don't tell me Poles didn't hate Germans for a very long time now!
At least we don't have a Kaczinsky in our offices right now...

What is the goal of your thread Borrka?

show the true background of the German Nazis.

Yeah...let's show...it will be a revelation to the people who absolutely know nothing about the German Nazis! ;)

History / Quotes of Polish or German kings, generals [41]

Since you don't wanna bring sources I do :)
thinkexist.com/quotes/frederick_the_great/

My favourite:

"Religion is the idol of the mob; it adores everything it does not understand."

military-quotes.com/frederick-the-great.htm

And some more from the great Friedrich: brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/f/frederick_ii.html

My people and I have come to an agreement which satisfied us both. They are to say what they please, and I am to do what I please.

Men like this aren't born anymore!

History / Quotes of Polish or German kings, generals [41]

Perhaps it's old-fashioned German?

I think your dictionary got it wrong...so!

M-G (it's not important anyway)

If someone mangles my language it's important! ;)

M-G (jezes krist)

Ack...here is a much better site telling you everything you ever wanted to know about "HAUT"

dict.leo.org/ende?lp=ende&lang=de&searchLoc=0&cmpType=relaxed&sectHdr=on&spellToler=&search=Haut

I never ever heard someone say Devil=Haut! (I'm not telling M-G how to speak dutschisch on the other hand)

History / Quotes of Polish or German kings, generals [41]

Check under section 3 Words - Others, second from above in that section.

You mean that: "haut ab"? It's common speech for: "Go away".."Leave already"....(adressing several people compared to "Hau ab")

What kind of German do you think you are? :-)

I'm wondering already!

"Poland's existence is intolerable and incompatible with the essential conditions of Germany's life. Poland must go and will go!" Generalmajor Hans von Seeckt

At the third try! :)

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_von_Seeckt

22 April 1866 - 27 December 1936

...couldn't find the quote though...

History / Quotes of Polish or German kings, generals [41]

No, it translates as "Oh you poor devil."

Nah..."Haut" never means Devil...no way!

"Haut" is either the Skin or "haut/hauen", the adjective of "beat/beating".

German commander-in-Chief of Army Group Vistula:

"All Poles will disappear from the world.... It is essential that the great German people should consider it as its major task to destroy all Poles."

Do you have a source Borrke? I don't trust your understanding very much...

edit: Found it...was by Heinrich Himmler...he wasn't a general or king either!

History / Quotes of Polish or German kings, generals [41]

"Ach du arme Haut"

I never heard that before! I would translate that as: "Oh you poor skin!" ;)

"Dass haut mich glatt aus den Socken"

That I know :)

We can agree on your second translation for Bismarcks saying though...It's correct I would say!

History / Quotes of Polish or German kings, generals [41]

I found that quite nice:

The Emperor of Germany is the king of kings, the King of Spain king of men, the King of France king of asses, the King of England king of devils.

French proverb
