Life / In need of good Polish jokes about Polish culture, people, etc [239]

I love the survilance one... Although I must admit I like to observe people...Give me few years and I will join the club 😀

Law / Lawyer - Inheritance [11]

Sorry, should be clearer- can you be more specific about what you want to know?

I can tell you how inheritance is split if there is no will but it will be of no use if there was one. Did she sign things over when alive etc. Your post while describing situation is not Rich in detail.

For example how was the apartament stolen? You mention carers there- was the apartament signed over in Exchange for care ?


Thank you but I will manage somehow to defend myself :D

Law / Lawyer - Inheritance [11]

Sorry but I'm not sure as to what information do you want?
Do you want to ask about the inheritance law?
Or about challenging a will?

Life / Do young Polish people believe in their religion and God? [150]


I mean more on a personal level. I declared as an atheist about 20 years ago, forced my mom to get me out of religion around the same time but I never remember anyone trying to 'Save me' or anything like that. I remember some singer having a prayer with the whole concert crew before the event and it was so strange to me..

I would say one big difference would be attitude towards 'spreading the word'. Or is it an American trait to take it so seriously?

Thanks, said embassy by mistake.

When I was doing it about 3 years ago I had to book an application time slot on the embassy website. New dates were published everyday

You are of course free to believe what you want as am I but I find it not very ...logical that you question scientific findings based on cration doubt but you accept just like that that god was just there. No problem with creating there...

But as these thread is front page and I don't want to get a warning ( lol):

School attendance at religion classes is at absolute all time low and nothing seems to make the Church more popular with young Poles

I read the Bable but if your argument start with who created this or that it is a valid question. You have problem with wind and fire but you akceptacji that god was just there...Interesting

Who created god then?

I guess a bit more like Atch, more elaborate and artistic


I meant the small 'l', especially in Paulina.

I think I like your Russian handwriting the most :)

Your handwriting is very youthful! Not a lot of rebelion in it, a lot of it kept the form of the handwriting you were taught in school. Brings to my mind order and that kind of quiet confidence.

Unlike with Atch your handwriting surprised me a bit.

My historian said it's 100% not Racibórz. Didn't offer any other help :/

Here is a sample of a British educated 6yo writing for himself (as similar in nature to diary I asked for permision and received it). School handwriting is much neater.

I didn't say they don't anymore just that I haven't seen kids handwriting in a while. As I'm in UK I have only simple of that

Why we can't be nice sometimes? We have so many threads to be argumentative

Thank you very much. And as your character description is very flattering I completely agree with it 😂


Somehow your handwriting is exactly how I would have imagined it.

I would say it shows artistic flare and putting estetics above convenience. Definitely 100% feminine. I like your l very much.

Btw, I used to write the botom of my y,g and j the way you write f.

Life / What to do if the neighbors is too loud? [40]


I lived in a commie era block of flats ( brick though, not prefab) and I only heard the neighbours when my upstairs neighbour dropped something heavy or move big furniture around. I loved the kids community on the playground, always someone to play with.

I felt safer in flat too. Both door and windows wish.

Living in UK the only reason I would prefer house is the possibility of shed in the garden. They don't do cellars here so flats don't have storage areas for bike etc.

Not the case in Poland/Germany

BB and Paulina. I still miss many of the old posters.

Genealogy / Help Translating 1880s Marriage Bann (Chicago - Polish) [24]

I asked a historian from that region but not sure if he will respond as he's pretty eccentric and sometimes goes into 'if you can't find the answer yourself you don't deserve to know it' mode.

The overwhelming majority was German so not sure if the Polish version would be popular.

In those times Racibórz would have been known as Ratibor

During the day you can only ask them. Kids can play in communal areas. Most apartament blocks have even playgrounds.

And when it comes to ease of use etc one level flat is much easier to navigate than a house.

Not true. Marital rape is still rape. Just harder to prove.
In France a rapist can even get a highest sentence if he's in relationship with the victim.

Back to the topic everyone, please
