Its on locally, well, if you live in the Highlands.
Tilda Swinton ( she was in Narnia ) has done up a disused hall and is running a mini festival of film.
Entrance is £3 or free if you bring some home baking.

Language / Polish Swear Words [1242]

Must admit I am not that keen on bad language either.
This forum is one of the better ones for learning the language, it would be a shame if it was out of bounds for children.

Dunno if it would work but maybe have an "adult" section ?

Language / Your perception of the Polish accent [145]

There is no such thing.

There is a perception that there is - this guy for example is based on the actor Béla Lugosi who was Hungarian.
There is a Latvian guy at my work who sounds just like him !

Best wait for one of the professionals on the board to answer that - I am just a keen amateur.

I am just thinking - your "friend" - would they be able to remember a complex Polish translation in that situation - maybe best to keep it simple !

Could turn a serious session into a fit of the giggles !

twardy = hard
mokra=wet

Also whats the word for horny?

My spelling is a bit off but "zabacony".

I suppose we would really need to know the context they were written in:) :) :) :)
