Yes, by pretending or actually being what/who???
Hint - who spoke French in old Poland???

Hey, odpierdol się off Feniks, kutasie.

I will do it for her. You pretend to be educated, erudite almost a noblé. When in fact you have no manners and you are soviet at heart.
I on the other hand i like French culture and when I watch something French online I get carried away and post a few phrases here and there in that language. After all 90% of posts here on PF is nonsense anyway.
But lookie here a wannabe aristocrat pawian gets jealous and starts getting sour with his malicious, petty insinuations.

Unless you're trying to imply he's like Chopin but he wasn't born in the times of old Poland.

Of course not. I would never do such a disservice to Chopin. :):):)

Hint: Speaking French in old Poland can be compared to speaking French in England of 11, 12, 13th century. How and what namely?
The hintest of all hints: who spoke fekking French in non originally French countries at those times?????

It is very simple Feniks, he implies in his underhand malicious way that I pretend to be an aristocrat. When in fact nothing can be further from the truth.
He is just a sad crisp sour with vinegar. Some may like it but it is not my flavor.

who spoke French in old Poland???

This question is why I got confused. When you said 'who' I presumed that you were thinking about a particular person e.g Chopin, Poniatowski. It's why I asked how many decades earlier. Had you said ' What group of people?' I might have stood a chance of correctly answering.

Iron`s comment on the pic of the Royal Castle in Warsaw:

Pawian, he's having a laugh. I'm sure Iron wasn't expecting anyone to take him seriously. I've noticed that he drops bits of French into conversation here and there but I presumed he had picked bits up over the years. He's not pretending to be an aristocrat.

Had you said ' What group of people?'

How about giving up riddles and just posting photos with direct explanation so that you don`t feel so stressed with too dubious questions??? :):):) hahaha

he's having a laugh.

No, he is a nationalist and they are unable to have a laugh. They are always dead serious. Ha!!!

take him seriously.

Of course he did and does, despite his knowing we consider him imbecile which only corroborates our opinion on him as imbecile. Ha!!!

So, have we solved the Bonjour riddle coz I lost the track due to all that noise about Iron???

No need to be snarky. All I did was to explain that because you wrote 'who' I presumed that you wanted the name of a particular person, not a group of people.

He is presumably, according to him an English teacher. Poor kids.

Yes, I am. William and his Normans became a new royal and aristocratic elite of England for nearly 200 centuries. Richard Lionheart spoke French, not English.
Similarly, aristocratic Poles/Polesses used French as a symbol of belonging to elites.

No need to be snarky

Snarky? I was simply ironic, which is a result of your earlier unfair accusations about previous riddles. Ha!!!

When you said 'who'

Hey, imbecile, who also concerns groups of people. :):):) It isn`t my fault that you don`t know history of Poland or England and had no idea that elites spoke French. :):):)

Richard Lionheart spoke French, not English.

Because he was French rather than English. He almost never visited England.

The Normans and Plantagenets were native French speakers. The r*SSian and Polish haute bourgeoisie spoke it as an affectation.

I see. You suggest that old French isn`t French anymore. hahaha buhahaha

Why are all Polish far righters and nationalists such imbeciles??? :):):) What is your education?? In communist times you were allowed to finish elementary school and go to work.

You suggest

I suggest you have your brain checked.
You see rather than feed people inaccurate information and try to show off how clever you are ( doomed at the start) you self-reflect.
Maybe the connection between using French and being an aristocrat is a factor that plays only in your mind. Some DNA memory of your plebian ancestor makes you react to French in this way. Maybe that would explain your inferiority complex. Anyway, as you see, except you, nobody thinks like that. Pahetic.
