Life / Polish and Czechs [190]
This thread reminds me of a conversation i had recently with friends, i know Polish, Czech and Slovak people who all understand much of what they each say. After learning this a couple of my English friends said that it makes sense, what with the countries being so close, Yugoslavia, USSR, blah blah...
So i asked them how many words they knew in Welsh, Celt or Gaelic (Scotts and Irish lingos) and funny enough, they didnt know any!
But then thats probably just the English ignorance and our meglomanical expectations that the whole world should speak English.
Cest la vie.... oh no wait, wrong language... aww who cares, its all Europe right?
... erm, whats the relationship between Poland and France like? do they hate you guys too?
