Hi all, I have some Polish friends. We keep contact via email. I used google translation, but sometimes I can't understand. What does the text below mean?
Jesteśmy ciekawi co u Was słychać...[google translation: We are interested in what you hear ...] .. does this mean .. we're happy to hear from you?
Do spotkania ... [google translation: The meeting ] .. does this mean "see you"?
Jestesmy ciekawi co u Was slychac....We are interested/We would like to enquire.. what is going on in your life/your lives? Do spotkania...till we see you again
No brainer, but Google Translate's often just flat WRONG!! Machine translation as it is should be taken with a [huge] grain of salt:-)
I recently came across "Dziękuję z góry!" translated as "Thank from mountain!" vs. the idiomatically correct "Thank you in advance!" etc. ad hilarium lol
Thank you from a mountain - 'Dziekujemy z gory' (thanking you in advance). There are a number of these erroneous translations. People used 'thank you from a mountain' as a joke years ago.
Yes, exactly! And of course, what's so embarrassing about such bloopers is that NO POLE would actually say them, except possibly in jest:-)
Sort of like that old joke from the '60's, translating the German into English "Aus den Augen, aus dem Sinn" as "Invisible idiot" rather than "Out of sight out of mind", or from English into Russian, "The spirit was willing but the flesh was weak" as "The vodka was good, but the meat was bad." etc.....

With the help of Google Translate and my Polish niece's limited English skills we have been trying to find a one- or two-word English translation for "gwiaździsty" as used in the following sentences from 1930s Polish newspapers:
Zlot gwiaździsty do Łodzi
W związku z dniem Legionów, w dniu 21 maja 1934 roku odbyło się na lotnisku łódzkiem w Lublinku szereg imprez sportowych, jak: zlot gwiaździsty samolotów, zjazd gwiaździsty samochodów i motocykli, bieg kolarski i bieg pieszy na przełaj oraz pościg samolotów i motocykli za szybowcem.
Główną imprezą był zlot gwiaździsty, zorganizowany przez Aeroklub Łódzki, w którym wzięło udział 5 samolotów oraz pociąg szybowcowy.
As far as I can understand it has nothing to do with stars but more to do with "all points of the compass" as in people or planes coming from all parts of Poland.
A girl, I've been dating for 4 months, birthday's is coming up. And i would like to give her a card with some wishes in polish since i'm doing efforts to learn some polish already but i'm a beginner still ! (Nie mówię po polsku )
