Sorry, I forgot to spell speak as schpik.

An Englishman sings Polish cult songs. Not bad. Quite amusing. Cheers for the guy.

My fav: Autobiography - We sang it in early 1980s - and danced slow dance with sexy girls at high school discos.

Hungarians speaking Polish (thick accent as far as I can tell, ignoring differences between ś and sz, i and y etc., LoL):

You can also see 1956.pl for the former Hungarian ambassador speaking Polish.

John Porter speaking Polish:

It is funny around 5:30 where Anita says how she hates when John uses her towel and that he doesn't tighten the caps of bottles properly.

John Porter speaking Polish

I was like: Wow, he's good I wonder how long he's been studying Polish...

I googled him and he has lived in Poland since 76'!

His accent is heavy but grammar and idiomatic expressions - OK.

I'd be more than happy to have a heavy accent if I could speak that well.

The best bit for me is at 1.32 onwards, check it out :-) He definitely has a sense of humour.

I know Joanna Krupa isn't a foreigner but she is one of my heros now for speaking Polish and being able to laugh at her mistakes 2,35 and 4,48. etc. She isn't just a model :-)

HAHA, it's so funny.

He was born in 1950 so he's 62 years old. He's been in Poland for 36 years, more than half his life.......haha, this stuff just cracks me up. Not that he's been there that long....just the language part. Polish is so fukcing messed up. ha!

Paul Wesley speaks polish. Not quite a foreigner, both of his parents are from Poland but he was born in US.

Paul Wesley speaks polish.

i don't know why this person would even be brought up. both parents are polish, he was raised speaking polish......silly example.

I think that this goes back to the idea of who is Polish and who isn't. I couldn't find this topic to link to it, sorry.

i think it's pretty simple: if you have polish parents and you grew up speaking the language, your name doesn't belong on this thread.

2 votes for "I am horney" so I will have to go with that, thanks.

I would love to know what the people behind the counter think of this.

Have you ever worked in a shop in an english speaking country and have had an english customer speak to you in Polish?
What do you think of people who do this?

Is it ok to speak polish very badly to someone in Poland even if the other person speaks reasonable english?

Are you just making a fool of yourself speaking Polish?

Is this film wrong on so many different levels?

It is perfectly OK. Your interlocutor will be delighted that you try to speak Polish which is considered one of the hardest to learn languages in the world.

Are you just making a fool of yourself speaking Polish?

Never!!!

Is this film wrong on so many different levels?

It is intended as a little mocking but nevermind.

Never!!!

I am not so sure.

He is speaking to someone half his age, the two behind the counter might think that he is trying to chat one of them up! He has put in some effort so he could be some kind of a stalker! He went to their coffee shop especially to speak polish to them instead of just going to the place where all the other english speaking people go. He is taking it too seriously also which means that he could be crazy as fck, if he was having a laugh with them and not being so serious it wouldn't be so bad.

The only way to do this correctly is to have a laugh with the two behind the counter otherwise he can't but appear silly. Being too serious and making such an ase of speaking polish is just asking for trouble, but also speaking good polish may make him seem even more mentally deranged, to put so much effort into speaking Polish just so that he can order coffee from them.

No.

If I was behind the counter, I would be enthralled. :):):)

Good job!
