News / Let's protest censorship in Poland's mainstream media! [90]

I used to hate PiS party but now after what hostile parties have done here I am thankful for more nationally based and friendly to Poland party. This party is on our side, it wants to do things our way so thank God we have a Polish party in the government. It changed some of the media to make it more friendly to Polish people and Poland and a lot of people here appreciated it.

I am not sure if Polish is the hardest of languages but it is one of the hardest out there, certainly. I think maybe Russian is the hardest or Serbian or Macedonian since they have similar grammatical frame to Polish but have the added difficulty of Cyrillic alphabet to communicate in as opposed to Roman used through most of Europe.

Kaczynski has never mentioned anything about his sexuality, never tried to hide it or flaunt it or give an impression that he is gay or straight, so why anyone reaches a conclusion that he is gay? If anything he can be looked at as a straight man since he is married (not that it is concrete proof of sexual orientation but more indicative of heterosexuality than homosexuality).

Excuse me? Silesians, Slazacy and Kaszubi are all Polish, do not even try to separate us! I am Kaszub in background, I am Polish and proud of it! Mind your own country's business. PiS is the right party looking after Polish interests unlike many other parties.

PO party tried to sell parts of Poland to Germans including part of Slask (Silesia) and Kaszubs. NO WAY! Kaszuby sa polskie! Polish media of the time (2011) tried to hide this fact from the public. I am happy that now this media is being dismissed from work, good!

He lived together with women under one roof long enough to regard it as marriage, good enough to me. Was Lech Kaczynski gay to you as well?

News / Let's protest censorship in Poland's mainstream media! [90]

Who gives you right? Are you Polish? I think you are not Polish, if that is the case stay away from Polish groups, you have no right to speak, Poland is united and will stay united, just try to separate us and you will see what happens to people who try that.

If Lech was not gay then Jaroslaw would also not be gay. Learn about studies on identical twins, their genetic make up (around 99.9% similarity) and the sexuality (based mostly on genetics). If one identical twin was not gay according to you then the other is not gay either. There end of story!

You skipped what I wrote above but others will read it so your effort to discredit me is pointless. You do not know how to converse so you manipulate but it does not work.

That can not be true, Russian or Macedonian are harder I say, and many other languages may also be more difficult. Also Poland is not in the western world but between east and west socially and politically.

CIA is not authority for Polish people or the world, academics are, international academics not one country's group of who knows what.

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


That's a dream in USA not in Poland, again CIA is not authority for Polish people it has to be broader research centre and communicated between international circles of academics from all different countries not just one USA.

That is fine, we are not as prudish here as you are in USA. I like Kaczynski even more now.

To even say that you are better than other person in something is already extremely low and rude, your low class is evident, did your parents teach you to be that low or did you learn this behaviour?

In reference to the topic, I read other posts and it could be Polish may not be even in the top 5 of the hardest languages.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]


PiS is the one strong true Polish party bringing Poland back from foreign hands. They may not do everything right but they look after Polish business first and people respect PiS for that and it will be around now for a very very long time, Polish people will not let PiS go now, only foreign powers are working hard to make that party disappear.

News / Let's protest censorship in Poland's mainstream media! [90]

Yes, those media outlets are doing what they like, some censorship. The media you listed above are mostly anti-Polish, it took some time before people realised it and now those media are loosing buyers and supporters, they will disappear hopefully and Poland will have its own media back.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]

You are hysterical, PiS is merely changing the constitution for better and has a right to do so since anty Polish PO government introduced hostile laws to Poland's sovereignty.

Poland is one of friendliest countries, too friendly, we have not started antagonising anyone yet but we may if we are pushed too far, so calm down.

Government needs taxes, it is better to tax the richest than to borrow from EU, good move, not the best but the best in current situation.

You are trying very hard to sound intellectual, you have done it a lot but the way you do it comes across as an attempt by someone who has nothing to show for in real life so he tries very hard here where he can show off to mostly uneducated people to cover up his shortcomings in other areas. I sense you would like to able to write in Polish the way average Polish writes, at least, so that you can tower above others here. You trying to make up for the shortcomings in Polish language by stating how good your Polish is in comparison to the English of non-English speakers. My advice is that you compare yourself among most of the Polish people and you will see that their English, German, Spanish or Italian is much better than your Polish, it is easy to do that on PF but try real world. Your showing off is only tetament to your desire to appear better than others in something but you are getting frustrated because you have been criticised for your Polish by Polish people whom you think should be more stupid than you and so you can accept that you are worse in something than they are. You need a psychologist to first tell you to stop dreaming that you have to better than others, you are only lowering yourself further. Those who think they are better than others are actually the ones who are inadequate.

I prefer people with inferiority complex than stuck up individuals with superiority (dickheadness) complex, but it is only your complex. I read your comments and you come across as a weak man (argument wise) and slightly frustrated person at times, trying to prove forcefully your correctness, you are in fact doing the opposite, you are proving how wrong you are the more you dwell on a topic. Your English is erroneous at times, your punctuation for example has some shortcomings, go back and inspect your mistakes and then come back and speak of your glory, but it is funny how you gloat here while English is your native language, am I not right? Do I prance around telling English speakers here how good my Polish is (despite how easy or difficult the language may be)? I would have to be insane. Do you not need a psychologist perhaps?

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


Are you a native English speaker? If so then you have no right to correct non-English speakers here unless your Polish is perfect. Is your Polish perfect? Let me examine it.

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


And I'm alluding to this famous mistake made by foreigners which I am about to correct once again: Correct us in your own country not Polish forum, end off story.

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


Your Polish is truly horrible (I know your broken Polish) and I can say with all confidence that it is no match for the English of many Polish speakers here on this forum and outside of it, so I would suggest you do no limit your shortcomings to just inability to count - don't be funny.

You are partially bit not quite right about problems Polish speakers face with English.Tenses are a problem but have in most cases have clearly defined rules as in "I do" - statement about doing something on regular basis in contrast to "I am doing" - statement about doing something at this very moment, this is not difficult to learn and most Polish know the difference. While less clear distinction between "I would' and "I would have" or "I have" and "I have had" there comes some difficulty. Articles are the least difficult with definite article like "the" denoting the specific subject matter (a noun) and the indefinite one "a" being the more general one, while "an" (another indefinite article) occurs before a bowel, this is all not difficult. Prepositions are the ones most difficult as these have to be learned mostly by experience, there is no clear rule to them. I would also add to the list the irregularity of English spelling as a category in English gramma that poses difficulty for Polish speakers.

Are you naturally stupid or just being stupid (are you getting a feel for it now?)? Anyone feel free to explain to this English speaker his language because a foreigner just did but he did not get it such is a level here. When someone asks you, while you are walking down the street as to what you are doing you answer: "I am walking" you do not answer: "I walk". Now do you understand?

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

@rozumiemnic

You must be British, I will explain it to you clearly so you understand. Present continuous is a tense that describes what one is doing at the present time or what one is going to do in a very near future based on current activity or evidence. The phrase: "I am going to Germany next week" does express intention based on present evidence, there has to be some readiness to take trip to Germany (purchaed tickets or packed bags) so the "I am going" is forever attached to the present moment, it starts or continues right at this moment. The expression "I am walking" is part of present continuous tense that describes the current moment, the person asking the question: "What are you doing?" may not see that someone is currently walking, both parties may be talking on the phone, so the question is quite valid as is the answer. Also, it is not about what is logical, it is about the principle of English grammar, it does not have to be logical - the fact remains that one is walking down the street and it is legitimate to use this description to paint a picture of what is happening at the time. You have taken one item out of context and you pinned onto the entire present continuous tense.

In contrast, in Polish, while tenses are simpler each verb featured in them splits in two main forms and then into further forms comprising between 70 to 85.

Some standards apply to both languages, next time you write make sure to include at least one verb when constructing a sentence.

[quote=Atch]This is part of your hoity-toity nonsense that doesn't endear you to other members. I think that's upper-intermediate to advanced level, is that right? Firstly I would say that you don't need that level to have an idea of how easy/difficult a language is. Once you get beyond basic level in any language, and you have a modicum of intelligence/common sense, you can see what's stretching before you. If it makes you feel as if you need to go and have a lie down then you know where you are in terms of difficulty.

InPolska made a valid point about certified documentation, what you did in school is not that relevant (in Poland we all do that in primary school - foreign languages are part of the curriculum), show us that you posses adequate expertise (thoroughly substantiated) to pass judgement in any area of English language which you claim to know well enough to assess its mastery in the writings of others on this forum, especially texts of non-English speakers. What is most laughable is that you pick on Polish speakers here for making trivial mistakes in English and you are yet to produce one word in Polish. Why don't you start communicating here in Polish (in the off-topic section); if you have the audacity to be so trivial and picky towards Polish people then you show us Polish what you can do in our language, for otherwise, it is as if you can dish it out but you can't take it, if that's the case then DO NOT JUDGE OTHERS IF YOU ARE INCOMPETENT YOURSELF!
