Language / POLISH 18 - 30 years old know MUCH BETTER ENGLISH language than their own native language! [102]
Wow, I think it's really unusual. Interwar period's education.
I was surprised onece to speak with an elderly neighbour in her 90s. We'd only spoken in Polish before, however she surprised me by speaking faultless English with an almost perfect accent. She'd never lived in an English-speaking country either.

I always welcome help (and correcting faulty expressions is big help) but I often feel embarrassed that I've got it wrong the first time.Maybe that's what you take for anger?I can't speak for the whole nation but that's how I feel about it-same rules for every person struggling with foreign language.
Often Poles seem angry, offended at even the slightest corrective recast of their often faulty English. This is where I and others often have a problem!

Some ppl do that and I have nothing against it.I know how hard it is to really learn foreign language.Besides that's the price English paid for being international language.You can't have it both ways.Just see how many ppl (even here) says things like "nobody speaks English.." as if it was ppl duty to know English.And you get something for that - there is much more materials available in English,you can travel without language difficulties...That's just how it is.

Stop this crap.I'm Polish and I know how to say it in Polish and English.My friends are able to do it as well.And even if someone makes mistakes in Polish is does not necessarily mean their English is better then Polish.

Life / Do young Polish people believe in their religion and God? [150]
That's probably true,most children are baptized altough I must say that among my friends it's usually because the family wants that.
There's no real alternative(if you want "pretty" ceremony).
Usually I hear "I don't know,I'm not sure"
"99% of all children in Poland are baptized

I live next to "zawodówka" so I often hear sentences like :Twoja matka dupy dawała i stąd się wziąłeś (Your mother was easy and that's why you're born)
And not so often [because not so many girls like such sweettalkers :)]"Dasz mi dzisiaj dupy?"(will you f... with me tonight?)
Or sentence that became a joke:
"Dajesz dupy czy trzeba z tobą chodzić"(You f... or do I have to date you}
E.g., ?

I wouldn't say that.I hear this expresion quite often.
I won't spoil the fun for Rybnik but you shouldn't put Ironside in this sentence even as an example.
it is rarely used in this sense today.

That I can take as an argument (and agree with it or not) but not the fact that his mother worked in SB.That's simply ridiculous.
In '89 he was 27.He barely started his career.You're speculating just on the fact that he's against PiS and his mother worked in SB
P.S.On what position his mother worked in SB?
Well, he was lenient and doctor G who is guilty at least of being a corrupt and nasty individual, received the lowest sentence there is.
Other than that he just let himself to comment on the case spreading rubbish skewed by his political standing and proving that he shouldn't be a judge.

Oh,now I see.Good luck Gumishu.With your world-view you must be really angry that PiS is in opposition and that probably they won't win the election in the nearest future.
becasue all parties in Poland except PiS are corrupt to the bone

I wasn't going to take part in this but now I must ask-what the fact that his parents were in SB has to do with his actions?If you think that's some real argument you're mistaken.Someone took some facts and insinuated that because of that his decisions are not valid?
the media you are talking about are anti-Pis - they would never write about Mr Tuleya background
