History / Kashubians are nation in Poland? [124]

Kashubian sounds so strange I wouldn't call it a dialect of Polish - as for Silesian, I'm probably just more familiar with it and understand quite a lot, so I personally would call it a dialect of Polish (Germans called Silesian Wasserpolnisch before 18th century)- I'm not sure if there are definite rules in linguistics as to what should be called a dialect and what a language (facebook considers Silesian a language) - Górale speech is similarly distinct from Polish in the degree and it is considered a dialect

Jesus obeyed God's will, right up till the end:

Mathew 26:39 Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, "My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will."

although my guess Jesus talked to God
(most of the time - except when he was dying on the cross - He said: God, why has you forsaken me - it was his last test afaik - askrealjesus.com and the affiliated websites explains this and a lot of other things)

Jesus letting himself be crucified was a plan B as far as I know - -Jesus didn't cancel the sins of our previous lives - also salvation is not guaranteed if you just merely believe in Jesus

John 19:6-7 : 6 When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him.

7 The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.

Language / Cases in Polish. czas, czasu, czasowi, czasy, czasom, etc [5]


while czasem andczasami are forms of a noun, they are often used as adverbs meaning sometimes and similar:
Czasem brakuje mi snu. = SometimesI don't have enough sleep. Czasami doskwiera mi samotność.=Sometimes I suffer from loneliness.

from what I can gather in liceum (or technikum) or whatever the curriculum started anew back from antiquity - it was the same as when I studied in liceum with the difference of having one year less for the cirriculum - history lessons where recent history was taught happened in the time were students were busy preparing for matura

one of the bills vetoed was the one about the Supreme court to refresh your memory - one other was also important for PiS concerning Regionalne Izby Obrachunkowe who check the finances of municipal governments


Duda also vetoed the bill that was supposed to change the rules governing European elections that favoured PiS

I just read about some of the conditions PSL gave for supporting the KPO on 21 April - one of them was 'kwota wolna od podatku' (tax free allowance) at 30 000 pln - if this is not an outlandish condition I don't know what is (they also demanded 10 per cent of the KPO for agriculture - whatever that means)

president Duda vetoed more bills in his first term than Komorowski in his entire presidency - most of them were while PiS was in power

that was their final proposal, after it transpired that Lewica reached an agreement with PiS - you don't watch TV it seems

ok, i have to admit to being wrong - I might have misunderstood something from what I heard on TV - it's true that in the middle of March PO gave 5 conditions on which it would support the KPO - and one of them was 40 per cent of the funds for the municipal authorities - I don't know other conditions but minister Buda of PiS said some of them were too much
