News / Despicable Ukrainian lies [144]

Makes you think, doesn't it?

Definitely!

It's the timing! This war could have been a great reason for reconciliation between our both peoples....together fighting a common enemy....you know....

But it seems now it could become rather again a source for disagreements and strife and hostility....it's mindboggling....sometimes it seems Poles and Germans are just like cats and dogs....they just rub each other the wrong way, no matter the reason....it's useless!

.....and that at a moment when "latecomer" Germany, long condemned for its foot-dragging, decided to put all of its weight behind Ukraine! 🙄

....is there a mood-change in Poland? In the polish gov? Will Poland continue to support Ukraine in this war?

That could be an explanation for the tank-mystery.....

- the transit of Ukrainian grain through Poland to the EU continues uniterrupted as it has always been

That is an interesting thread with much needed info, Torqi!

This whole grain business is very confusing here, I can tell you.....nobody in Germany wants to see starving Ukrainians! And yes, because of lacking info Poland doesn't look good in this (even if nobody in the german media, as far as I know is blaming Poland...I guess most german Journos are also confused about that).

Travel / What do people think about German people in Poland? [25]

Such accounts are always haunting....

I read in the german news about that polish hero that recently died with 109 years (HUNDREDNINE!!!). Born at WW1...fighted during WW2...made it through the Warsaw Uprising....what a life! I can't imagine living through what he had...RIP

Germans always loved their Indians....Karl May is a famous hero here....the "edlen Wilden"....we just love them! :)

Language / Will Germans be able to understand Polish enough? [77]

Okay.....so our both languages seem to have two special features

Polish - to few vowels
German - to long words

Guys and gals.....it could be so much worse....long words without vowels! :)

Language / Will Germans be able to understand Polish enough? [77]

.....good question.....you know, as new research shows the Ur-Europeans (out of Africa) got the blue eyes and lighter skin/hair only quite recently, an evolutionary means to survive alot better in this colder and less sunny region.

So....just maybe....someone being more fair was more attractive to the girls back then and more sought to father their children because of better chances of survival???

Another theory is about the colors....like fair hair, eyes, skin and white clothes just stands for the "good", "clearness", the "light"...and dark means "night", mysterious, dangerous, murky...

.....na ja....there is this "Siegfried" - Gold.....with his blond curls whereas his adversary Hagen von Tronje (the much more interesting character of the two) was written as dark and broody....so....

It seems rather a european thing to do to make the "heroes" blond....not only a german thing....most Germans are brunettes, I believe...

After all, the textbooks/comics that we read reflected pretty accurately the events from our history.

The Pole the blond hero and the German the dark Mongol???

Now I too believe a common history book of our both peoples would met difficulties... :)

Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung

It just flows....how can it not....with so many vowels....like a song! :)

But I agree....since our words can be stacked together there are some real long ones possible, like Lego.... heh:)

That's to beat:

Donaudampfschiffahrtsgesellschaftskapitän

stacked words:

Donau
Dampf
Schiffahrt
Gesellschaft
Kapitän

Every word is fully functional on its own....but together they got famous (and still working efficiently)....that's GERMAN! :)

Off-Topic / Terms of Russian Surrender [116]

....out of Ukraine of course and negotiations about russian partake on the rebuilding....of course.

About the inner russian affairs not so much...Russia wouldn't be defeated and occupied after all.

More concerning will be the future about the pro-russian enclaves in Ukraine like Crimea. Kiev probably will take it all back and Russia has no longer the means or the will to stop anything.

Will there be unrest? Uprising? Big movements?

Also, notice how Aryan the Slavic warrior looks like

He looks like a Viking actually.....and we like a Mongol.....interesting!

But yeah....Vikings are cool! Who doesn't want to look like them! :)

Well, the Yiddish language

Na ja....since yiddish developed as a german dialect by Jews living in Germania for centuries it's not wonder.

...Yiddish was born in the Rhineland more than 900 years ago. A fusion of about 80 percent German and 20 percent Hebrew, it also has incorporated many words from the Romance and Slavic languages, and, in the last hundred years, from English....

...but I doubt that comic wanted to teach THAT.

History / Enemies, Strangers, Friends. Poles and Germans. [82]

When push came to shove,

Not really if you think of "shoving Jews into gas chambers" as a good christian deed, after all Jews are non-Christians and actually guilty of the murder of Jesus!

It's all a matter of how to sell it, I fear! Anti-Semitism has been part of christian lives for centuries now.

I could think that a truly pagan Germany wouldn't had done that....not really interested in the christian-jewish bickering....suspicious, the both of them! ;)
