Language / Polish was chosen the HARDEST LANGUAGE in the world to learn... :D [1558]

osiol well I can't actually imagine dropping it in Polish; gender thing is simply overgrowing the language, running through it in every direction (isn't it called enmeshed?? :)). This is quite different to German where you could simply use more general Artikel (gosh forgotten the English name for a/the) - could perhaps be der instead of any other. and that's almost it.

is it not correct to say - whom did you see on the ball/game?

so Poles should abandon Polish and learn German instead then it would be easier for the English to communicate with us (not meantionig the Germans )

wait - why shouldn't then Poles abandon Polish for English instead of German? and should Germans stick to German?

:P

Language / Polish Swear Words [1242]

it is spelled like this - cholera jasna

cholera is a serious contagious disease (bacterial if I remember correctl7y)
jasna is bright

it does not make much sense together

but is used quite often nethertheless

jasna/y is used in many Polish swear phrases as sort of augmentative

jasny gwint - bright screw thread
do jasnej Anielki - bright Angela :)
a niech cię jasny szlag/piorun trafi - let a bright hit/thunder hit you - this one make most sense as a phrase

you don't get it Bratwurst - in polish one can most often tell a gender of a noun when seeing it's basic form (nominative) in German you cannot get the idea of which article you should put before many many words (der oder das Artikel - you can't figure it out very often - you have to memorize it)

but in general Polish is much more complicated than German (although those sentences where two parts of a verb are at opposite sites of a sentence can really make you suffer ;P)

Language / Polish slang phrases - most popular. [606]

Life / Polish Nursery Rhymes [253]


This is a short lullaby (well a short version of a longer one)

Aaa, kotki dwa,
szarobure obydwa,
poleciały do lasu,
narobiły hałasu.

Aaa, kittens two,
both are greybrown,
they ran to the woods,
and made a lot of noise.

Language / Your perception of the Polish accent [145]

I can recognise people from Trójmiasto and vicinity (they have their ways of saying things not that much the sound of the language ) they say jo instead of tak most of the time for example (but I guess it is more widespread in Pomorze area (not only Tricity)

Language / Your perception of the Polish accent [145]

yes there is little difference
the more people are educated the smaller difference there is
