Imitating old peasant-type Polish dialects - polite?

To native Polish speakers only: In dealing with old peasant types speaking a heavy Polish rural dialect is it polite to try to speak to them their way? If one stops at a peasant's hut and asks him: 'Gospodarzu, mata może świże jojka?' Is that regarded favourably as 'he's like one of us' or would it be seen as taking the p*ss?

I'm not a native speaker but it's almost never polite to imitate someone's non-standard dialect in any language.

i assume that u are writing a work of fiction.

He hasn't been in Poland for many years, so I imagine he's writing on the basis of imagined travels in his head to imagined villages in imagined mountains.

Indeed, I've just watched the original Bela Lugosi 'Dracula' film on the telly with the scene of travelling through the mountains and the various tumble-down peasant huts along the way and

that's how I picture today's rural Poland (LOL)!

I think it might be seen that way. I wouldn't do that.

and then he slowly put his Omnia HD phone down and we can hear "Don't play stupid maaaan" ;)

Yes it is considered polite. It shows that you respect them and their traditions.

If the peasant hears such a request uttered in his local rural dialect, he will probably tell them:
Agnieszka już tu nie mieszka [Harry doesn't live here any more].

As someone who has studied sociolinguistics and anthropology, I'd be wary of doing it if you didn't know the people. Others might feel insulted that you don't think they can speak 'proper' Polish.

Some people might wonder why you were trying to use their dialect, others might feel threatened (they might use it to keep outsiders 'outside'). It also depends on how well you speak the dialect, as the reply might be too much to handle.
