Not really. It's quite general term, however "naprawianie" has same meaning and is used more often.
Huh, this one is weird. "Quite average phase"... Without context it's impossible to get it. "Faza" in slang language is a state of being slightly drunk/intoxicated. It's also commonly used for a hot wire in AC installations. Other meanings are technical ones, equal to english "phase".
"Taka sobie" is an idiom meaning "nothing special".
What does "reperowanie" mean except for a typical meaning 'repair'??

"Jubie" does not call any ring regarding children. It could be "dzióbie", which could be used by a man to a woman, but also not really often (it is a modified - hardened - form of "dzióbku", which is discussed above).

Both are of similar level of "formalness" for me. Semantically "obcokrajowiec" refers to nationality, and "cudzoziemiec" to citizenship. Anyway the difference is very vague and you can use both.

Language / Polish post office vocabulary [8]
Parcels (paczki) are also registered and can be tracked online (if this is the tracking you want):
emonitoring.poczta-polska.pl
Their web system is still far from perfect however, I often see delays up to few days (with parcel already delivered).
If you want to have better tracking service, use door-2-door service ("przesyłka kurierska"). With Polish Post, this is service is called Pocztex. Others you know already: DHL, UPS, TNT, DPS etc.
