Language / Experience or opinions of The Travel Linguist? [4]
As an "advanced learner" of Polish,I would recommend these lessons as suitable for a complete beginner.There are many other free resources on polishforums and other web-sites.(Byki is another.)Try to listen to as much spoken Polish as you can.It would be great if you could practise with a native speaker.

Life / Racism in Poland - the future [441]
Realist Guy correctly makes the point that all nationalities have prejudices against other nationalities.For example, as a Scot I know that many of my fellow Scots do not like English people.
However,my mother came from Poland,and although it was Russians who killed two of her brothers,my uncles at Katyn,I do not hate Russians living today for crimes committed by previous generations."Live and let live" is my motto.
