Language / Cultural disparities shown through Polish and English languages [195]


Do your own homework. It is very attractive and beautiful to look at from a distance, but on close inspection, it can kill you with the smell of a ripe cadaver.

Language / How to correctly pronounce "złoty" in Polish? "ł" letter [17]


I differ from your interpretation and agree with your portrayal of the cultured person from pre-war Wilno . There is more to replacing the 'ł sound with the W
even today, saying mały as mawy would sound weird, something with ca'ły and cawy or, in the case of Pawian 'łysy and wysy, so there is a slight difference, might be impossible for you to detect, which is understandable, but for Pawian, Polish borne all I can say using the words Pan Zagłoba ( not Zagwowa)
Jakas gwowa (głowa) kiepska, zapewne z Kielecka. So Jon, traditional 'ł, to a great extent, is being replaced by the W but not wholly; there is a lot of 'ł
remaining, especially in some selected words. When visiting Poland last time, my wife and I were constantly complimented on the beauty of our Polish.

Language / Cultural disparities shown through Polish and English languages [195]

Cultural individuals differ from the vulgar American Polonia, as some are and some are not, across both sides of the ocean. Yet, vulgarity emanates from within, akin to a cadaver flower: it's easy on the eyes and seemingly cultured, but upon closer inspection, it reeks like decaying flesh and lies in wait like a coiled cobra, poised to strike. By the way, it reminds me of someone; being semi-cultured, I refrain from pointing fingers.

Language / How to correctly pronounce "złoty" in Polish? "ł" letter [17]

I concur with most of your points; I remain faithful to the pronunciation from my youth and the Kresowy region. In my view, pronouncing 'ł' as 'w' misrepresents and distorts my language, even though I acknowledge that most Poles today would concur with you. Similarly, 'ch' and 'h' pose a challenge for many young Poles. For me and those from my generation and region, they are distinct and separate, akin to Kielce and Vilnius. Stay down, Pawian; you are only vaguely familiar with Trylogia:::)))

This explains why America is known for the most beautiful smiles in the world: it's the land of toothy grins. What I find shocking is the decaying, toothed smiles often seen in Europe.

No Milo, ł sounds exactly like double LL in the word WELL

There is no reason to make simple complicated If you can pronounce WELL you can pronounce "złoty" Like Pawian says, Simple

Again, with the change of direction and evasion, you were promoting the benefits to the environment, but suddenly, it is not the environment; it is hardly a burden.
Give me a break.

It was a commendable effort, albeit with a significant error on your part. BB was discussing the country, and you altered the context by referring to individuals; it's not equivalent, even though the Eskimo reference was clever, albeit incorrect, from my viewpoint.

Don't be surprised, Crow; you are talking to the same people that never mentioned 1200 thousand Israelis murdered, raped, mutilated, and enslaved in Gaza, but at the same time, cry a river for Palestinian terrorist.No balance whatsoever. To be evenhanded, Srebrenica should have never happened.

History / What do Poles owe to Czechs? [89]

I'm not familiar with that. I only have a beer once a month, my wife liked Okocim, and Tyskie has been occupying space in our fridge for the past few months without anyone to drink. Interestingly, it's sold in four-packs rather than the usual six.

Alien, supposedly, is the word. Do you believe Okocim and Zywiec are inferior, or are they locking in aggressive advertisements?

Legs are not only beautiful but exciting
in many other ways. You are in another world when inside actually the little museum, a tribute to a man's resourcefulness. Family adherence to Polish traditions, food, music, and costumes. You genuinely experience Podcarpacki, Poland, from the beginning of the twentieth-century era. Polish language is everywhere, owners are fluent in Polish, and are accessible. Interesting were the beginnings. The original owner escaped, too busy Chicago, and decided to live among Indians.
To make the long story shorter, he was accepted as the blood brother, not only a brother but a chief. Family remembers the friendship; jobs are
available to Indians even today.
As for Torch Lake, don't be bashful, Johnny. It is a unique gem on the world scale, with unsurpassed beauty, and was once rated the most beautiful lake in the world.

I hope you are doing well. I wanted to apologize for my previous post, which accused PF readers of being unfamiliar with hyperbole. You are certainly an exception to the rule and hyperbolize with great finesse. Thank you for the enjoyable exchange.

Some people seem to fear the truth, treating it like kryptonite, those who believe in false gods. It's like Polish Judas, selling the fatherland for forty pieces of false gold.

Google might be able to expand your vocabulary. Oh, what the hell, sheik, rings the bell? Don't blush Jon. The PF is full of ignorant people. Not that I call you ignorant, but getting involved in the Swingers Club affairs might be my guess.

Some local behinds, you say? How devilish, cunning, and slippery. I propose a more careful approach, particularly in Northern Sudan. Those fanatically adhering to
their religious beliefs are incredibly intolerant of even slight deviation from sexual practice and are treated harshly, starting with being blindfolded and wandering the top of tall buildings. You can pretend to be hetero, checking some potato sacks walking by, but their intolerance knows no limit, so it's a tall building for that offense, too.
To be safe, follow your instincts and go as a neutered gender individual. As a rule, South Sudan would be much safer. Saveges are primarily Christian, so deviant behavior, even though discouraged, is widely tolerated. But let's say you got caught probing some savages behind, 'Shayk's cousin, and the chieftain gets mad and orders you to be pushed off the tall building. So they lead you to the tallest mud hut, 6" tall; you fall and, by pure luck, land on the random chicken.Sh*t, how lucky can you get?

To satisfy your hero complex, I will try to relay what happened truthfully. With his concave chest puffed up to the max, waving a pride banner furiously flapping in the hot desert wind, Jon stormed the defensive position of an 87-year-old grandma-rebel hiding in a mud hut. All male rebels left in a panic attack after the rhythmic beats of the tam-tam drums announced Jon was coming; so relax, Jon; your hero status is firmly established and indisputable.
