Language / Game - guess Polish idioms/sayings in direct English translation - part 2 [816]


I just used it in another thread.
However, I altered this idiom a little to sound more American.
Coz the original Polish version is : you don`t grow to sb`s heels.
What does it mean?

A gingerbread house. We got a similar one 2 years ago. It was exploited as a fancy decoration until I looked closely inside and found moths and their larvae. So, if you ever get this present, munch on it soon before moths do.

pottery with sweets inside

scarfs, socks, ties, t-shirts, cosmetics, coffee, candles

Life / Barking Dogs in Poland [65]

Certain celebrity moved to the countryside and likes it a lot except nights when dogs bark all the time:
Sandra Kubicka has always said that she can't wait to escape the city and live surrounded by nature and without a lot of neighbors. Now, however, she has informed us about a certain problem that keeps her from sleeping at night. Namely, her beloved dogs still can't acclimatize to the new, rural reality. The animal noises coming from outside make the celebrity's four-legged pets bark all the time. This makes it difficult for the rest of the household to rest.

"Bags under the eyes sponsored by drogs. You might think it's because of a small child at home, but no, no, no. Leoś is a dream child who sleeps through the night and sleeps 11 hours. On the other hand, drogs in the countryside bark all night long : at the wind, at the trees, at the deer - confessed Sandra Kubicka on Instagram.

hahaha

Let me quote the Admin`s famous words from a few years ago: Forum isn`t for everyone.

And now a little modification: The countryside isn`t for everyone!

hahaha

What?? Stop spreading Kremlin propaganda about us, noble Europeans!
If you hope we will yield to the sick expectations of Kremlin stooges like you or Iron, you are wrong!!! Ha!!!

History / Differences between Poland and Russia [78]

Poland is Europe while Russia is Asian Barbaria.


Yes, Russians choose to be asian barbarians.

Recently their ex President called for waging war against Europe:

Medvedev stressed that for this reason the countries of the Old Continent "must be punished by all available means" - political, economic and hybrid.

As long as Russians don`t come to their senses and recognise Europe as their ally, they will remain Asian barbarians, soon dissolved in the Chinese ocean like a bag of salt.

Life / Do you collect mushrooms in your country? Poles in Poland do. [94]


You are the first person who mentions it about mushrooms. Good.
But younger generations aren`t into hunting mushrooms like we were decades ago. So, the healthy balance is still retained.
