When i have breaks I usually go pretty wild but in everyday life im pretty boring I guess. Im an accounting major neways so its not like my studies are that interesting to most people.

I too would like to learn Polish in Melbourne. Have had a look for language schools but can't seem to find any. Does anyone know of any?

Anna

CAE used to have a polish course but have not seen one in their guide's for at least 2 years.

maybe a uni would have a polish course that you could just walk in on.

hmm interesting, do you shop at the Polish Deli in Glenroy, was back there over chrissy

geez, my dad grew up in glenroy as well...small world.

History / What do Poles think about Turks? [761]

you had contact with a select few.. and if ya ask me.. alot of Men
from any country, just name it.. like to drink and find themselfs..

but.. ya only ran across a few .. even I cannot make comments on whats
customary or not. because really I dont know. but. like i said. what I know
is that they did jump in and help poland.. thats deserving of respect in my eyes.

alcohol and sex before marriage are strictly forbidden in muslim culture, among other things. that is well known.

i have nothing against turks, i just find it hilarious thatsome (not all) have this pious attitude later in life after purposelly breaking the rules of their religion.

He asked you what you think,, is that your answer?
or are you answering for the whole muslim nation?

you are correct, i too was generalising.

however, i have had contact with turks that like to go out and get drunk and the like then "find" themselves and observe pious behaviour.

History / What do Poles think about Turks? [761]

other muslim countries are not very respected either.. and they been at war
since war became a word.. centuries..

Least the turks helped Poland when help was needed..

the way I see it.. who cares if other muslim countries dont respect you. it isnt like
other muslim countries respect a whole lot to begin with unless its in their own
territory .. ( speaking of govt ) and leaders.. etc.

that is very general Pat.

you cant blame all muslims for a few extremists. the koran is actually a very peaceful and spiritual book, just in the wrong hands, can be turned to another viewpoint.

western and european countries have also been at war since the dawn of man.

So... ?

he asked what the impression of turks are!!

i work/liase with muslims and the turks/lebanese are not seen in a very spiritual light.

Life / Do you think that Polish people are rude? [951]

Grammatical person in English
English distinguishes three grammatical persons:
The personal pronouns I and we are said to be in the first person. The speaker uses this in the singular to refer to himself or herself; in the plural, to speak of a group of people including the speaker.

The personal pronoun you is in the second person. It refers to the addressee. You is used in both the singular and plural; thou is the archaic second-person singular pronoun.

All other pronouns and all nouns are in the third person. Any person place or thing other than the speaker and the addressed is referred to in the third person.

Life / Do you think that Polish people are rude? [951]

I traveled on the train in Poland on my last visit. I was almost knocked down by this woman passing by quickly and there was not a word of apology... like I didn't exist.

It is not just Poland, this happens everywhere, especially bigger cities.

It's like invading their privacy.

i agree, there is a personal space that shouldn't be invaded.
