USA, Canada / Why do Americans (and Canadians) hate Polish people? [226]

I'm American and I don't hate Polish people (that's probably because I have Polish blood), I've never heard 1 person say they do. Yeah some Americans make jokes about tragedies in Poland, they make jokes about tragedies everywhere. Whether you're in Canada, Mexico, Germany, China, or any African country. But not all of us are like that.

Language / Is it possible to learn Polish while not living in Poland? If yes, how? [37]

Just study a lot. This is a good website to start you off, I found it on reddit. You also need a lot of motivation.

Language / Can anybody check these cases of duży [3]

Thanks!

Merged: Grand dad born in Ireland, Grand mom in Poland. May I apply for a Polish citizenship?

Not sure if I said that right but here is my info.
Grand dad = Born in Ireland
Grand mom = Born in Poland

They both came to America and got married, I believe my grandma came around WW2 but she died when I was young :\

Am I eligible or do I have to find the birth certificates and all of that stuff?
