hi koyoman, i recently asked you about some photos about grudzianz, my mother lived at droga wonkowa by the railway station. i am interested to see what it looked like back in 1930. maybe even see her house which she telle me was some coach station, if you can help that would be great.

Pudzian
i am a student also, and i believe what you are looking for is'
idą = they go . this indicates they actually made the trip.
zostały = they have been. indicates they completed then action.
so
they go to the take away = idą do take away(i dont know this word)
one zostały do take away

i hope im right.

Language / word usage, obstawać/odrzucać [9]

thanks gumishu
i hear what you say and understand. the difficulty i still seem to have, is when i read polish( which is still difficult), what i read and what it is supposed to mean dont make sense, for example;

'co sobie pan życzy' is supposed to say ' what would you like'
but when i read this sentense with the words i know, i wouls have said ' co był chciałbyś'
also
'czy podać coś jeszcze'= would you like anything else' i would say ' czy podobasz coś inny'
they are probably totally wrong, but jeszcze means yet/still,

i dont get it right now

Language / word usage, obstawać/odrzucać [9]

am i right in say then that 'obstawać' means to have abn oppinion, and wykłócić is more to argue.
and
odrzucać meand to 'throw out' and odmawiać is more to decline s/th.

Language / word usage, obstawać/odrzucać [9]

i am doin a polish course, busuu.com. i have come across some words that according to my dictionary appear wrong.
the course says;
obstawać means argue, but my dictionary tells me that 'wykłócić' means to argue.
odrzucać means to decline, but my dictionary tells me that it should be 'odmawiać'

some explanation please.
