I really want to help you jamshaid and as such I researched certain group of lawyers who specialise in rape cases (some of them have been rapists themselves and so they know what it is like to have to go through such an ordeal, the downfalls and disappointments - angry wife remaining disobedient even after multiple rapes). I am Polish myself and I also have been accused of rape even though it has been an accidental one. I understand you completely, Polish wives have no care or respect for men in general and then they turn on you after you try to help them and teach them some marital values. Your son needs a father, a role model like you so he can grow up and follow in your teachings, that way he will know how to treat women, especially Polish women, and insert in them the essence of being a good wife. I really, really pity you, you are a pitiful individual now and I feel sorry for you, you deserve a different life.

Here is a link to the website the group runs (I hope it will help - they are not Polish so don't worry, you will be safe from racism):

Former government's companies were crooked, PiS did well to get rid of them.

Let's hope PiS's new tax plan for foreign companies inserts some life into Polish stocks, no more privileges for foreign owned companies, no more cheating.

A company that has headquarters in Poland is regarded as Polish company and ends up on WIG20 but it may be owned by foreign investors, example is Biedronka.

I am waiting to see you write here in Polish and not once (anyone can use internet translator) but few times and without delays. You talk about others but others are not here, you are, show me how well you do in Polish, it's so easy, easier than English, well, where is your example?

No, only you spelled it wrongly, I do not have the required letter "ł" on my keyboard, hence the form, that is all, you are trying everything you can.

I was not referring to university level but your level of language skills.

I think I know what schools teach what in Poland or you know better? Common teach me then, go ahead, show me how you know better, are you game enough? Yes, it's primary school (szkola podstawowa).

Some standards apply to both languages, next time you write make sure to include at least one verb when constructing a sentence.

[quote=Atch]This is part of your hoity-toity nonsense that doesn't endear you to other members. I think that's upper-intermediate to advanced level, is that right? Firstly I would say that you don't need that level to have an idea of how easy/difficult a language is. Once you get beyond basic level in any language, and you have a modicum of intelligence/common sense, you can see what's stretching before you. If it makes you feel as if you need to go and have a lie down then you know where you are in terms of difficulty.

InPolska made a valid point about certified documentation, what you did in school is not that relevant (in Poland we all do that in primary school - foreign languages are part of the curriculum), show us that you posses adequate expertise (thoroughly substantiated) to pass judgement in any area of English language which you claim to know well enough to assess its mastery in the writings of others on this forum, especially texts of non-English speakers. What is most laughable is that you pick on Polish speakers here for making trivial mistakes in English and you are yet to produce one word in Polish. Why don't you start communicating here in Polish (in the off-topic section); if you have the audacity to be so trivial and picky towards Polish people then you show us Polish what you can do in our language, for otherwise, it is as if you can dish it out but you can't take it, if that's the case then DO NOT JUDGE OTHERS IF YOU ARE INCOMPETENT YOURSELF!

@rozumiemnic

You must be British, I will explain it to you clearly so you understand. Present continuous is a tense that describes what one is doing at the present time or what one is going to do in a very near future based on current activity or evidence. The phrase: "I am going to Germany next week" does express intention based on present evidence, there has to be some readiness to take trip to Germany (purchaed tickets or packed bags) so the "I am going" is forever attached to the present moment, it starts or continues right at this moment. The expression "I am walking" is part of present continuous tense that describes the current moment, the person asking the question: "What are you doing?" may not see that someone is currently walking, both parties may be talking on the phone, so the question is quite valid as is the answer. Also, it is not about what is logical, it is about the principle of English grammar, it does not have to be logical - the fact remains that one is walking down the street and it is legitimate to use this description to paint a picture of what is happening at the time. You have taken one item out of context and you pinned onto the entire present continuous tense.

In contrast, in Polish, while tenses are simpler each verb featured in them splits in two main forms and then into further forms comprising between 70 to 85.

Are you naturally stupid or just being stupid (are you getting a feel for it now?)? Anyone feel free to explain to this English speaker his language because a foreigner just did but he did not get it such is a level here. When someone asks you, while you are walking down the street as to what you are doing you answer: "I am walking" you do not answer: "I walk". Now do you understand?

Language / Polish was chosen the HARDEST LANGUAGE in the world to learn... :D [1558]


Your Polish is truly horrible (I know your broken Polish) and I can say with all confidence that it is no match for the English of many Polish speakers here on this forum and outside of it, so I would suggest you do no limit your shortcomings to just inability to count - don't be funny.

You are partially bit not quite right about problems Polish speakers face with English.Tenses are a problem but have in most cases have clearly defined rules as in "I do" - statement about doing something on regular basis in contrast to "I am doing" - statement about doing something at this very moment, this is not difficult to learn and most Polish know the difference. While less clear distinction between "I would' and "I would have" or "I have" and "I have had" there comes some difficulty. Articles are the least difficult with definite article like "the" denoting the specific subject matter (a noun) and the indefinite one "a" being the more general one, while "an" (another indefinite article) occurs before a bowel, this is all not difficult. Prepositions are the ones most difficult as these have to be learned mostly by experience, there is no clear rule to them. I would also add to the list the irregularity of English spelling as a category in English gramma that poses difficulty for Polish speakers.

Are you a native English speaker? If so then you have no right to correct non-English speakers here unless your Polish is perfect. Is your Polish perfect? Let me examine it.

Hahaha 30% loss of pension hehehe, you calculated that? In a long run this tax increase is better than debt to UE without which there would be no need for this tax in the first place.

This is from a person who is only interested in foreign investment in Poland, do not pretend you worry about Polish shop keepers. Better to pay more tax than to make more debts with EU or take away from pensioners or single parents.

I prefer people with inferiority complex than stuck up individuals with superiority (dickheadness) complex, but it is only your complex. I read your comments and you come across as a weak man (argument wise) and slightly frustrated person at times, trying to prove forcefully your correctness, you are in fact doing the opposite, you are proving how wrong you are the more you dwell on a topic. Your English is erroneous at times, your punctuation for example has some shortcomings, go back and inspect your mistakes and then come back and speak of your glory, but it is funny how you gloat here while English is your native language, am I not right? Do I prance around telling English speakers here how good my Polish is (despite how easy or difficult the language may be)? I would have to be insane. Do you not need a psychologist perhaps?

@Traveler

Shame is on you for making a fuss, you should start living a life and get out of the nursing home. I know it bothers everyone when some ethnic groups are louder or do not follow the all mighty LAW or abide by the golden RULES but sometimes you just need to relax a bit with your issues. I am not talking about violent behaviours but a bit of luz , loosen up people and drink up, but warning to Germans and Anglo people do not drink vodka (may be too strong for you and you will cause trouble on a plane) stick to your soft drink bear (in moderation).

South Americans have USA to settle in if they want to break out in the first place, Poland is not attractive to them, it is so distant for them and so different that I do not think even one of them will be hoping to remain after the festival, unless just to have a holiday. They are so devoted to Christianity and the new pope being South American that they will follow him to the ends of earth, they help keep Christianity stronger, much stronger. Arabs have constant unrest in their countries and there are so many of them that it is no wonder they branch out elsewhere, not to mention like Jews Arabs have been mostly nomadic people.

No, they sound like fun people to be around. I'm not talking about people destroying surroundings. Unlike you some people like to have fun, but I happened toobserve some British folk and know of Americans too and there is lack of fun spirit, people die in your countries out of boredom don't they? I would. You sit next to Polish person and it is usually lively, you sit next some Anglo person and they observe you and have issues with everything.

In the obsessive world of so called terrorist threat Americans and their funny friends have become obsessed with safety, not to mention the capitalist craziness with suing and suing some more. Maybe lay off wars and you will not have to fear terrorists and then won't have make ridiculous rules regarding drinking on airplane. No drunk Polish ever brought an airplane down, so calm down with your so called safety thing or you will die from stress.

You are trying very hard to sound intellectual, you have done it a lot but the way you do it comes across as an attempt by someone who has nothing to show for in real life so he tries very hard here where he can show off to mostly uneducated people to cover up his shortcomings in other areas. I sense you would like to able to write in Polish the way average Polish writes, at least, so that you can tower above others here. You trying to make up for the shortcomings in Polish language by stating how good your Polish is in comparison to the English of non-English speakers. My advice is that you compare yourself among most of the Polish people and you will see that their English, German, Spanish or Italian is much better than your Polish, it is easy to do that on PF but try real world. Your showing off is only tetament to your desire to appear better than others in something but you are getting frustrated because you have been criticised for your Polish by Polish people whom you think should be more stupid than you and so you can accept that you are worse in something than they are. You need a psychologist to first tell you to stop dreaming that you have to better than others, you are only lowering yourself further. Those who think they are better than others are actually the ones who are inadequate.

I do not think they will want to stay in Poland, it is a religious gathering for them, a big occasion.

Life / Do you have middle names in Poland? [12]

He did not explain well, we have middle names but not all, same as in some other countries, it is optional, some parents give children extra name, some do not. In many cases the second name or middle name is the one given at bierzmowanie ceremony and this name is only used in Catholic Church's documents, so some people end up with three and others with four names but the latter case occurs only in Church's legal proceedings.

It is the same seat ok, only capitalist spoiled brat gets uptight about everything related to money, things were simpler and more normal when people did not expect to be treated like lords because they paid for something. If you sit by the window or not will it kill you? No.

How do you know they were idiots? Just because they were drinking and behaving like drunks (drunks do not yet constitute idiots or hazardous)? Those uptight airlines make up laws and if you break one rule they make a big story about it and you think in Polish categories (I make the same mistake) that something horrible must have happened for such a fuss to occur but in reality nothing happened. They probably just drank and maybe sang some songs which to average English lord is too much, they are not fun people like us, you have to know that.
