Language / What does "ya zha smadia" mean in English? [20]

i'm not Polish but i think she wanted to say "Jezus Maria" otherwise i can't relate this to anything else in Polish that would make sense to me.

Language / "Do you drink vodka?" (generally, not NOW) equals "pijesz wódke?" in Polish? [10]

today i was talking with a friend (on facebook). usually when i speak polish, i "think" in english.

i wanted to ask: "do you drink vodka?" (generally, not NOW)

as far as my polish knowledge is concerned, i could ask it this way:

pijesz wodke?

but then i thought they'd ask me "teraz? czy ogolnie?"

cause in english there are 2 forms?

are you drinking vodka? (now)
do you drink vodka? (generally)

what will be the polish equivalent of these 2 sentences?

Life / Move to Poland or UK? (Advice needed) [51]

@Thurneman I think it'll be best if you found an area in Sweden that suits you. Chances are that the "multiculture" stuff you're thinking up isn't strewn all over Sweden...Poland is getting by day more foreigners, especially in big cities where you'll find the kind of job you're looking for. You're looking for old-fashioned people, but the world is changing at a fast pace, change along to keep up or just vanish.
