Law / Exchanging a foreign / international driver's license to Polish ... [12]

Merged: International Drivers License while temporarily living in Poland

Hey guys I want to get a termporary drivers license in Poland. How can I do this? I am already here and I heard in the U.S. only AAA can issue one but there are many websites that claim they can provide one but the only thing those websites do is translate your current license into Polish, so wouldn't I just be able to translate my American prawo jazdy into Polish?

Law / Buying a car in Poland or Germany? [36]

I speak good Polish. Have been checking on Allegro. So should I just look for cars at dealerships rather than privatley owned?

Study / Bachelors in Civil / Mechanical Engineering Degree in Poland [39]

Merged: Mechanical Engineering Universities in Poland, Erasmus Programme

Which Universities in Poland have good programs where I can earn a bachelors degree in mechanical engineering? Polytechnika Warszawska has every engineering degree besides mechanical from what I can see... Any others anyone know about? AGH?

My final goal is to try and get my masters in Automotive Design in Germany (Aachen University most likely). I could get my bachelors there but I don't know anyone Germany and I have family and friends all over Poland (not to mention i speak it).

It would make sense though to study cars in Germany... what do you guys think?

Merged: Investing in Polish Stock Market

Within the next year I was planning on investing in the Polish stock market. Anyone have any feedback or advice? I read a thread on this which was from 2007 and it mentioned that it wasn't very wise due to lack of conduct codes in businesses, but its been a few year and I'm noticing that companies' revenues are multiplying at an accelerated rate. What do you guys think?

Life / Help me find this Polish band and song.... [117]

Thread attached on merging:
Song Identification?

So there wasn't a catagory on where to put this post but I heard a song a while ago in Polish that I fell in love with and have been searching for years for the name of it and I was just wondering if maybe somehow someone here could help.

It was a guitar song kind of similar to czerwone gitary music but a little different. Anyway all I remember is the chorus which builds up with the singer singing fast and then he finishes with "chłopcy chłopcy"

Super long shot I know but it was be amazing if someone could help

Dziękuje

Language / Polish and other slavic language differences [60]

Haha I am studying biology ale chcem dostać moj minor w slavic languages (with an emphasis on Polish). They dont offer Polish as a minor by itself at my school but I can use Polish to get a Slavic lang minor which is good. I figure I speak some Polish so I should use it for a degree :)

Language / Polish and other slavic language differences [60]

Well the Cyrillic langurages will all be in cyrillic so I will be able to distinguish them only because of the accents they use over their letters (macedonian has no accents). Will message crow thanks!!

Language / Polish and other slavic language differences [60]

Ya I know I will be able to tell which language is which but the big thing is giving many examples as to why. The only way I will be able to know which cyrilic languages are which is because of the accents over certain letters. The languages are Russian, Ukrainian, Czech, Slovak, Polskiego, Upper Sorbian, Lover Sorbian, Slovenian, Hrvatski (croatian), Serbian, Bulgarian, Macedonian, Belarussian, and Polabian.

Language / Etymology of samochod and other related automotive words [12]

thanks for the info guys! didn't know samochod was similar to cannibal thats funny! Yes this paper is in English. Any I'm doing Czech to compare the words.

I supose no one would know the origin for the Czech word for brakes (hamulec) "brzda" would they?

Language / Etymology of samochod and other related automotive words [12]

o and zawieszenie is zawieszić! ok I should have thought of that in the first place. But are there any Polish words relating to cars that have been borrowed? I suppose "turbo." Ok diękuje bardzo Lyzko.

A czy jest jakiesz książek albo cos na internecie gdzie mogę znaleźć etymology w Polskim słow?

Also in addition to doing this in Polish I need to do the same thing in another slavic language and compare the same words in Polish. I was thinking about doing a simple language that is similar to Polish..Czech?

Thankyou
