The ambulance is driving driving
Driving here and there
Driving there and here
Driving here and there

Genealogy / Manko, Federowicz, Baszczek, Zatwarnicka. Family history mystery. [36]
Is there any way I could contact someone (on here maybe?) That lives IN Polana???? Since it is such a small village, I don't know how possible it'd be. My family is curious as to how much family (if any) we have there.
UPDATE!
we have found an old frecord of my great great grandfather's birth place!!!!!! He has it as Podwolczyska, Poland. Any information on this place? Is it even still in Poland?
And, on the same record he has his mothers name (what we cant make out of it, its very old and has been copied a few times) as either
1. Tillie Hatalewick (with possible ending "i")
2. Tillie Halalewick (possible ending "i")
3. Tillie Hałalewick (possible ending "i")
That is what i could make out of her name. Any ideas?
Dziękuję

Language / Polish Language in Lates 1800's [7]
How was the language different in that time? My great-grandma learn polish from her parents which were born in that time period. Many many words are very different then what i see on her in "modern polish"
Her mother's family was from Galicia and South-East Poland. We have not foudn any more information on her father's family yet.
Is her spoken polish a geographical thing, or just so different because it was spoken over 100 years ago?

Well, my grandma says candle as "stu or stó" instead or (what i remember) its like świec?
there are many other differences.
Oh! she says noły or nołi or nołie for "new" instead of nowego.
Can this be explained? at first i though maybe it was maybe a complete other language, because her father spoke quite a few languages, so yeah. but both her parents spoke Polish and Russian, but my grandma claims they tried teaching them russian, but they couldn't learn it. so they only new polish!

on the "softening" she does this a lot with "sz" and "cz". they are all very soft and subtle. it definitely sounds polish an all, but idk, when i listen to polish online, like on youtube, my grandmas sounds much more soft and different.

She said it was something about a farmer and every morning he went into the field to plant the seed, chop the hay, sell it etc. etc. and then on the last day, he cried because he had no more hay. Does anyone know this song in polish???
Dziękuję Bardzo,

Genealogy / Polish looks? [1462]
Ok, so it's been like a year? since my last post, and i was told i was too young to tell which of my nationalities i look most like. Well, I think my face has changed some, so here are updated pics.
so, just click the links, the photo thing never works for me.
Well, My heritage is Hungarian, Polish, English (like from england, UK) and German.
The hungarian family all has dark hair and hazel-brown eyes (like me)
The polish family has all hair from black, brown to blonde. All have blue/grey eyes.
The english family has dark brown/black curly hair and blue eyes.
German family has dark hair and both blue and LIGHT green/hazel eyes.
Thanks :)
Oh, forgot to add that my hair is mainly straight, but the longer it grows, it gets a little more wavy.

Genealogy / Contact with small towns (Polana, Bieszczady, Podkarpacie) in Poland? [5]
Hi, I found the town were some of my family originates from. Specifcally, Polana, Bieszczady County, Subcarpathia, Poland. This is the town I believe where my family was from. if not, all I know is it was Polana, Austria in 1910. Any ideas?
do you think they have internet there?

So, from what i get, is that Podwoloczyska is now near Ternopil', Ternopil's'ka, Ukraine. Would this area be considered Ruthenia? As he listed himself as Ruthenian Polish on his record.
