A Polish man moved to the USA and married an American girl. Although his English was far from perfect, they got along very well until one day he rushed into a lawyer's office and asked him if he could arrange a divorce for him--"very quick."
The lawyer said that the speed for getting a divorce would depend on the circumstances, and asked him the following questions:
LAWYER: "Have you any grounds?"
POLE: "JA, JA, acre and half and nice little home."
LAWYER: "No," I mean what is the foundation of this case?"
POLE: "It made of concrete."
LAWYER: "Does either of you have a real grudge?"
POLE: "No, we have carport, and not need one."
LAWYER: "I mean, What are your relations like?"
POLE:%26amp;nb sp; "All my relations still in Poland ."
LAWYER: "Is there any infidelity in your marriage?"
POLE: "Ja, we have hi- fidelity stereo set and good DVD player."
LAWYER: Does your wife beat you up?"
POLE: "No, I always up before her."
LAWYER: "Is your wife a ******?"
POLE: "No, she white."
LAWYER: "WHY do you want this divorce?"
POLE: "She going to kill me."
LAWYER: "What makes you think that?"
POLE: "I got proof.
LAWYER: "What kind of proof?"
POLE: "She going to poiso n me. She buy a bottle at drugstore and put on shelf in bathroom. I can read, and it say, 'Polish Remover'."

Polish Class System in the UK?
I wonder if anyone can help me.
I'm wondering if there is a specific social hierachy that exists between the recent influx of immigrants to the UK?
For example would a Polish waiter look down on a Polish cleaner - how is this expressed? Are there any specific examples you can think of?
I'd be particularly interested in hearing first hand from anyone who has encountered it.
Polish Class System in the UK?
I think Polish people are patriots. Generally I think they still adopt the communist ethos of equality. I know a few myself. They don't look down on others.
Reply:No, they don't have a class system in Poland, just here in the UK it seems, more specifically England.

Polish AK better than the Yugo AK?
Is the Polish AK better than the Yugo?, and does the Polish AK have chrome bore? does yugo have chrome bore? Are they slightly or greatly different from each other considering the quality and reliability?
Polish AK better than the Yugo AK?
The Yugo is definitely not chrome lined. Most yugo parts that came in saw heavy usage so most have new commercial made barrels or the pitted original barrel. The polish kits that came in were hardly used and were very high quality. Either in excellent condition is a great gun, but you have to inspect it well before buying it. Check the bore with a bore light to make sure it has strong riflings left in the barrel and when clean it should shine, if not it is called a "dark bore". Some dark bore rifles shoot good, while others are worn out junk.
I myself would choose either the Polish AKMS in 7.62x39 or the Polish AK-74 Tantal in 5.45x39.

Polish immigrants (plumbers)?
There is quite a lot of flack against Polish people in the UK(I'm not polish). But who would you rather have Polska Paul who works his a*s off all day who comes at 7PM and leaves late, or British Bob who comes and goes comes and goes does half of the work and charges triple?
What do you think?

Reply:British Bob because by hiring him you are helping him pay his mortgage and look after his kids. By hiring Polska Paul you are sending money back to Poland and helping to put British Bob (who could be your next door neighbour or a friend of yours) out of work, contributing to him losing his home and leaving his wife and kids with nothing.
I'm sorry if it sounds wrong or harsh but I like to look after my own. Poland can look after theirs. I will never hire a Polish plumber. British all the way. You have to pay more to get the best.
Actually when we need plumbing work done we hire a friend of my partner's who qualified as a plumber last year and who can't get work because of all the competition. He's now working in a pub to pay the rent and very demoralised - all he wants is a chance to work and use the skills he gained in college. So we give him whatever work we can. Polska Paul will NEVER get a penny out of me!
Actually "Eastern EU" our home was not repossessed as we managed to save it (if you had bothered to read my previous question you would have seen this) and the reason we could not "pay our mortagage" is because my partner is unable to get a decent paid job, probably because of the flood of Eastern European leeches currently sucking the blood out of our employment market. I may be poor but I have my standards. I will NEVER employ a Polish plumber! I look after my own like I said. I will pay more if I have to just to make sure another British family does not have to go through what I have. Unlike you I have standards and care about more than just money.

And it is not a political problem, it is all about the leaking tape.
Ladymoonlight, you see, your tap has probably been still leaking after that and you had to pay 4x as much, as you would otherwise. Is this why you could not pay your mortgage and your home was repossessed (as per one of your previous questions) ?
Ladymoonlight, I could not have look at all your Q%26amp;A, as you've made it private. In one of them I read before, you stated your husband is an unskilled worker. Maybe that is the reason why he cannot find a job according to his/ yours demands and aspirations? News for you: it takes more to get a good offer on the modern job market than just nationality and unjustified high self-esteem. You were also complaining he could not improve his skills because you struggle for money and someone else advised you how and where to obtain the financial support. Taking into consideration the fact you husband is highly intelligent (as you stated in your answer to the one of my questions), what is the problem with him going to the college to do some courses? Again Eastern Europeans, or plain laziness? C'mon...
Let's leave your husband, then...
You said something about your standards, I am going to ask you, what they are? I see only arrogance, ignorance and ingratitude. I am sure as hell, you're one of these numerous Englanders who claim loads of children benefits, unemployment benefits, tax credits, job seekers allowances and God knows, what else, yet they are still moaning and complaining about the people like me and other immigrants here who contribute heavily to the system. We feed you and others similar to you, and I did not take a broken penny back, nor I have ever desired one. And what is given back to us, instead of gratefulness? Hostility, nothing else.

Polish people HELP me!?
Stara basn is really good example of the old times in poland here u have a summery of what the movie is about An Ancient Tale: When the Sun Was God takes place in ninth-century Europe, when different Slavic tribes lived upon the lands that would later become the nation of Poland; at a time when each tribe worshiped its own deities. A cruel prince, Popiel, and his scheming wife will do anything in their power to pass control of this land to their son (and according to local legend, Popiel will ultimately be eaten by mice). The commander of Popiel's army, Piastun, opposed to the crimes and intrigue that Popiel orders him to commit upon the people to guarantee the succession, turns on Popiel.
Popiel seeks revenge upon his old commander, but Piastun is rescued from death by a young hunter and warrior, Ziemowit Pastowic. Ziemowit had spent years living with the Vikings and had only recently returned to his former homeland. Ziemowit falls in love with Dziwa, the lovely daughter of Wisz, a wealthy local merchant, wishing to marry her but Dziwa's fate is sealed by her father — she is to become a priestess in the local temple...
Zycie wikingow
mam nadzieje ze ise przyda :):)
Świat Wikingów był imponujący. Obejmował tereny od wschodnich wybrzeży Morza Śródziemnego aż po Amerykę. Już pod koniec VIII wieku po Chr. wikiński żywioł zaczął ogarniać stopniowo coraz to większe obszary. W wyobraźni współcześnie żyjących ludzi Wikingowie jawią się jako łupieżcy, krwawi wojownicy i najeźdźcy. Z mieczem w ręku staczali bitwy, palili domostwa i brali niewolników. Jest to jednak tylko ta mroczna strona tajemniczego ludu. Wikingowie to również jedni z pierwszych odkrywców, zdobywców, doskonali rzemieślnicy, kupcy i żeglarze. Niewielu z nas wie przecież, że to właśnie oni, na długo przed Krzysztofem Kolumbem, dotarli do wybrzeży Ameryki. Dzięki doskonale opanowanym umiejętnościom żeglugi oraz wspaniałym statkom - płaskodennym łodziom wiosłowym, wyposażonym w prostokątne żagle, tzw. drakkarom (szybkim łodziom przybrzeżnym) i knorrom (pełnomorskim statkom), a także wynalezieniu techniki żeglowania z użyciem siły wiatru, mogli odkrywać miejsca, do których nikt przed nimi nie odważył się dotrzeć. Dlatego też wikińskie osady zakładane były na Hybrydach, Orkadach, Islandii, czy Grenlandii. Ich szlaki wypraw prowadziły również do Konstantynopola, czy na przykład Lizbony.
Skąd taka władza, determinacja i takie umiejętności? Wikingowie stali się sławni w Europie po złupieniu klasztoru na wyspie Lindisfarne w 793 roku po Chr. Od tego momentu groźny lud z Północy zaczął wzbudzać panikę i strach wśród ludności zamieszkującej wsie i miasta.
Słowo "wiking" pochodzi od staronordyjskiego vik czyli zatoki lub starogermańskiego vik, czyli osady portowej. Tłumaczone jest na różne sposoby. Według jednych oznaczało zajęcie – wyruszenie na wyprawę łupieską – "wyjście na wiking". Według innych termin oznaczał osobę, która wojowała na morzu – grabieżcę.
Ojczyzną Wikingów były chłodne i wietrzne obszary Skandynawii. Górskie tereny, częściowo pokryte śniegiem i lodem, o mocno postrzępionej linii brzegowej z wieloma wysepkami, zamieszkiwane przez drapieżniki, z wodami obfitymi w ryby – oto kolebka wikińska, z której rodzili się wysocy wojownicy. Berit Sellevold, norweska antropolog, tak opisuje wygląd Wikingów: "zarówno mężczyźni, jak i kobiety wyróżniali się proporcjonalną budową ciała. Czaszki cechuje przeciętna szerokość i wysokość w porównaniu z długością (...) Jeżeli chodzi o powierzchowność, ludzie z okresu wikińskiego nie różnili się zbytnio od obecnych mieszkańców Północy z wyjątkiem nieco niższego wzrostu i znacznie zdrowszych zębów oraz naturalnie odzienia, uczesania i ozdób".
Wikingowie podobnie jak inne ludy Północy posługiwali się językiem staroskandynawskim i czcili tych samych bogów: Odyna i Thora. Ich społeczność dzieliła się, używając współczesnych pojęć, na: arystokrację-wojowników, ludzi stanu wolnego (kupców, rzemieślników, rolników) oraz niewolników. Przyczyną wypraw były najprawdopodobniej: chęć zdobycia nowych ziem i bogactw. Ale wydaje się, iż to właśnie niedostatek uprawnych gruntów wzbudził "głód ziemi" u Wikingów. Doskonale przygotowane pod względem technicznym statki pozwoliły bez większego ryzyka przemieszczać się na duże odległości.
Obrano kilka kierunków ekspansji. Jako pierwszy południowy-wschód. Wikingowie wyruszyli przez Morze Bałtyckie w kierunku terenów dzisiejszej Rosji, z biegiem wielkich rzek takich jak Dniepr, Dniestr, Wołga. Przekształcili istniejące tu osady słowiańskie (Nowogród) lub założyli nowe ośrodki (Kijów) tworząc pomost pomiędzy Północą a Południem. Szlaki ich wypraw sięgnęły Morza Czarnego a następnie Konstantynopola oraz Wołgi, Morza Kaspijskiego i Bagdadu. Handlowano sprowadzanymi z Północy futrami i niewolnikami, otrzymując w zamian srebro, w postaci monet, pochodzące z kopalni Arabii. W 865 roku wyprawy Wikingów ruszyły w kierunku dzisiejszej Anglii, Francji, Szkocji i Irlandii.
Tak jak już wspominaliśmy Wikingowie, dzięki odkryciom archeologicznym, znani są również jako rzemieślnicy-artyści. Mieli oni tendencję to przekształcania najbardziej prostych przedmiotów użytku codziennego w arcydzieła sztuki użytkowej. Rozliczne wyprawy wzbogacały rodzimą ornamentykę. Na przedmiotach takich jak rękojeści noży, zapinki, czy sprzączki do pasa występowały stylizowane wizerunki zwierząt oraz motywy roślinne. Splecione ze sobą różne wzory tworzyły tajemnicze wizerunki, zapierające niejednokrotnie dech w piersiach. Do dnia dzisiejszego sięgamy chętnie do tej stylistyki.
Świat wikiński to również runy - noszące cechy magii - pismo. Pismem, które składało się prawie wyłącznie z linii prostych pokrywano kamienie, przedmioty z kości i metalu. Wiele napisów runicznych znajduje się na kamieniach nagrobnych, na których w ten sposób uwieczniano imię zmarłego. Legenda wikińska głosi, że to bóg Odyn, poddany ciężkim próbom, jako pierwszy posiadł umiejętność posługiwania się pismem runicznym:
"Wiem, że zawisłem/na targanym wiatrem drzewie/przez całych dziewięć nocy/przeszyty włócznią/oddany Odynowi/sam z sobą/
na tym drzewie/którego korzeni/nikt nie zna/nie dostałem chleba/ nie napoju z rogu/zajrzałem w głębiny/chwyciłem runy/krzycząc je wyrwałem/a potem na powrót w dół się stoczyłem."
Hávamál z Eddy poetyckiej
Alfabet runiczny nazywany jest futhark, zaś nazwa pochodzi od dźwięków przypisanych jego pierwszym sześciu znakom: f, u, th, a, r, k. Każdy symbol był odpowiednikiem dźwięku oraz piktogramem – obrazkiem opisującym jakieś pojęcie.
Podobnie jak pismo runiczne taki i cały świat wikiński przesycony był wierzeniami i magią. Najpotężniejszym bogiem był jednooki Odyn – bóg wojny, strategii, przebiegłości, który jedno oko zamienił na łyk wody ze Studni Wiedzy. Polegli wojownicy udawali się do jego domu – Walhalla w Asgardzie. Jego atrybutem była włócznia Gungnir oraz ośmionogi koń – Sleipnir. Drugim najważniejszym bogiem wikińskim był Thor, a oto opowieść o jego wyprawie po Młot, nieodłącznym elemencie jego wizerunku:

Ziemowit falls in love with Dziwa, the lovely daughter of Wisz, a wealthy local merchant, wishing to marry her but Dziwa's fate is sealed by her father — she is to become a priestess in the local temple...
Zycie wikingow
mam nadzieje ze ise przyda :):)
Świat Wikingów był imponujący. Obejmował tereny od wschodnich wybrzeży Morza Śródziemnego aż po Amerykę. Już pod koniec VIII wieku po Chr. wikiński żywioł zaczął ogarniać stopniowo coraz to większe obszary. W wyobraźni współcześnie żyjących ludzi Wikingowie jawią się jako łupieżcy, krwawi wojownicy i najeźdźcy. Z mieczem w ręku staczali bitwy, palili domostwa i brali niewolników. Jest to jednak tylko ta mroczna strona tajemniczego ludu. Wikingowie to również jedni z pierwszych odkrywców, zdobywców, doskonali rzemieślnicy, kupcy i żeglarze. Niewielu z nas wie przecież, że to właśnie oni, na długo przed Krzysztofem Kolumbem, dotarli do wybrzeży Ameryki. Dzięki doskonale opanowanym umiejętnościom żeglugi oraz wspaniałym statkom - płaskodennym łodziom wiosłowym, wyposażonym w prostokątne żagle, tzw. drakkarom (szybkim łodziom przybrzeżnym) i knorrom (pełnomorskim statkom), a także wynalezieniu techniki żeglowania z użyciem siły wiatru, mogli odkrywać miejsca, do których nikt przed nimi nie odważył się dotrzeć. Dlatego też wikińskie osady zakładane były na Hybrydach, Orkadach, Islandii, czy Grenlandii. Ich szlaki wypraw prowadziły również do Konstantynopola, czy na przykład Lizbony.
Skąd taka władza, determinacja i takie umiejętności? Wikingowie stali się sławni w Europie po złupieniu klasztoru na wyspie Lindisfarne w 793 roku po Chr. Od tego momentu groźny lud z Północy zaczął wzbudzać panikę i strach wśród ludności zamieszkującej wsie i miasta.
Słowo "wiking" pochodzi od staronordyjskiego vik czyli zatoki lub starogermańskiego vik, czyli osady portowej. Tłumaczone jest na różne sposoby. Według jednych oznaczało zajęcie – wyruszenie na wyprawę łupieską – "wyjście na wiking". Według innych termin oznaczał osobę, która wojowała na morzu – grabieżcę.
Ojczyzną Wikingów były chłodne i wietrzne obszary Skandynawii. Górskie tereny, częściowo pokryte śniegiem i lodem, o mocno postrzępionej linii brzegowej z wieloma wysepkami, zamieszkiwane przez drapieżniki, z wodami obfitymi w ryby – oto kolebka wikińska, z której rodzili się wysocy wojownicy. Berit Sellevold, norweska antropolog, tak opisuje wygląd Wikingów: "zarówno mężczyźni, jak i kobiety wyróżniali się proporcjonalną budową ciała. Czaszki cechuje przeciętna szerokość i wysokość w porównaniu z długością (...) Jeżeli chodzi o powierzchowność, ludzie z okresu wikińskiego nie różnili się zbytnio od obecnych mieszkańców Północy z wyjątkiem nieco niższego wzrostu i znacznie zdrowszych zębów oraz naturalnie odzienia, uczesania i ozdób".
Wikingowie podobnie jak inne ludy Północy posługiwali się językiem staroskandynawskim i czcili tych samych bogów: Odyna i Thora. Ich społeczność dzieliła się, używając współczesnych pojęć, na: arystokrację-wojowników, ludzi stanu wolnego (kupców, rzemieślników, rolników) oraz niewolników. Przyczyną wypraw były najprawdopodobniej: chęć zdobycia nowych ziem i bogactw. Ale wydaje się, iż to właśnie niedostatek uprawnych gruntów wzbudził "głód ziemi" u Wikingów. Doskonale przygotowane pod względem technicznym statki pozwoliły bez większego ryzyka przemieszczać się na duże odległości.
Obrano kilka kierunków ekspansji. Jako pierwszy południowy-wschód. Wikingowie wyruszyli przez Morze Bałtyckie w kierunku terenów dzisiejszej Rosji, z biegiem wielkich rzek takich jak Dniepr, Dniestr, Wołga. Przekształcili istniejące tu osady słowiańskie (Nowogród) lub założyli nowe ośrodki (Kijów) tworząc pomost pomiędzy Północą a Południem. Szlaki ich wypraw sięgnęły Morza Czarnego a następnie Konstantynopola oraz Wołgi, Morza Kaspijskiego i Bagdadu. Handlowano sprowadzanymi z Północy futrami i niewolnikami, otrzymując w zamian srebro, w postaci monet, pochodzące z kopalni Arabii. W 865 roku wyprawy Wikingów ruszyły w kierunku dzisiejszej Anglii, Francji, Szkocji i Irlandii.
Tak jak już wspominaliśmy Wikingowie, dzięki odkryciom archeologicznym, znani są również jako rzemieślnicy-artyści. Mieli oni tendencję to przekształcania najbardziej prostych przedmiotów użytku codziennego w arcydzieła sztuki użytkowej. Rozliczne wyprawy wzbogacały rodzimą ornamentykę. Na przedmiotach takich jak rękojeści noży, zapinki, czy sprzączki do pasa występowały stylizowane wizerunki zwierząt oraz motywy roślinne. Splecione ze sobą różne wzory tworzyły tajemnicze wizerunki, zapierające niejednokrotnie dech w piersiach. Do dnia dzisiejszego sięgamy chętnie do tej stylistyki.
Świat wikiński to również runy - noszące cechy magii - pismo. Pismem, które składało się prawie wyłącznie z linii prostych pokrywano kamienie, przedmioty z kości i metalu. Wiele napisów runicznych znajduje się na kamieniach nagrobnych, na których w ten sposób uwieczniano imię zmarłego. Legenda wikińska głosi, że to bóg Odyn, poddany ciężkim próbom, jako pierwszy posiadł umiejętność posługiwania się pismem runicznym:
"Wiem, że zawisłem/na targanym wiatrem drzewie/przez całych dziewięć nocy/przeszyty włócznią/oddany Odynowi/sam z sobą/
na tym drzewie/którego korzeni/nikt nie zna/nie dostałem chleba/ nie napoju z rogu/zajrzałem w głębiny/chwyciłem runy/krzycząc je wyrwałem/a potem na powrót w dół się stoczyłem."
Hávamál z Eddy poetyckiej
Alfabet runiczny nazywany jest futhark, zaś nazwa pochodzi od dźwięków przypisanych jego pierwszym sześciu znakom: f, u, th, a, r, k. Każdy symbol był odpowiednikiem dźwięku oraz piktogramem – obrazkiem opisującym jakieś pojęcie.
Podobnie jak pismo runiczne taki i cały świat wikiński przesycony był wierzeniami i magią. Najpotężniejszym bogiem był jednooki Odyn – bóg wojny, strategii, przebiegłości, który jedno oko zamienił na łyk wody ze Studni Wiedzy. Polegli wojownicy udawali się do jego domu – Walhalla w Asgardzie. Jego atrybutem była włócznia Gungnir oraz ośmionogi koń – Sleipnir. Drugim najważniejszym bogiem wikińskim był Thor, a oto opowieść o jego wyprawie po Młot, nieodłącznym elemencie jego wizerunku:

Polish food?
I have noticed some of the big supermarkets are starting to sell Polish food - mostly stuff in jars, packets of meat/sausage and bread. I'd like to try some of this food but I dont understand the label and the content. Have you tried any of these foods and can you recommend anything? Please give me the name in Polish of you can and an explanation in English, thanks.
Polish food?
Pork is a popular polish meat,-sausages made with pork include---Kabanosy-cabannos---,zywiecka,... .Polish pate-paszet polski, .Boczek Zwijany----cooked bacon roll Placki Kartoflane--potato pancakes. .Golabki--stuffed cabbage Polish food is tasty ,filling and nutritious i love it
Reply:The Carrot, Apple %26amp; Raspberry nectar drink is really nice... it comes in a glass bottle with a picture of a rabbit on the front... sorry I can't remember the name I just pick it up when I see it! Tastes very good... not too sure about any of the foods.
Reply:usually they have english small labels, i love polish food and cant stop bying it
Reply:Most polish sausage is simmered in sauerkraut and then put on a nice crusty bakery bun...very good. Polish sauerkraut is sweeter than the regular kind you would usually buy.
Reply:Try some of the wafer bars they do... can't remember the names, but they're sweet, a little larger than chocolate bars, but a lot lighter... okay, I've just had one, and here's the info on the wrapper- they are called Grezeski (could be a brand name), and they come in three flavours... as far as I can see... Toffee, banana and hazelnut. There's even an e.mail address on here! kaliszanka@kaliszanka.com.pl A website! www.kaliszanka.com.pl Polish sweeties on the way :) or not, it's not an online shop :( but hey, still interesting to take a look...
Like you, I'm curious about Polish food, but I don't read Polish either, and that makes it tricky to check whether or not there are meat-derived ingredients. Not fun for a veggie bun...
Reply:DELICIOUS!
Reply:I'm not too sure about polish savoury stuff, I find it very salty, but I do like the fruit juices, especially cherry, and I like polish apple cake, too. Dumplings are ok if you like that sort of thing. I can't give you any brand names, but it's evident what each item is from the label. Nutrition/ ingredients information will be available on a sticker on top of the label if the original one isn't comprehensible to the common or garden Tesco shopper.
I live in a small town and we have 2 polish delis nearby - find your nearest and go and ask them about their produce. They'll give you samples and explain how it's made and recommend different foods for you to try.
Reply:their stuff is brilliant .most of the sausages are made from pork so i dont eat them but my freinds do and say they are really good. the fruit juice and bread they make are excellent.

Polish Wedding Traditions?
I need traditions, not food suggestions (I tried asking this in cultures area and got lists of food to serve). My fiance %26amp; I are both part Polish and I wanted to include some traditions in our wedding and/or reception.
I know about the bread, salt %26amp; wine tradition, but does anyone know of other traditions that are done at Polish weddings or receptions?

There's the Pani Mloda, or money dance, but I think that's tacky, and have never seen it done at weddings, but have googled it,
As for food... I think the best suggestions would come from your Polish relatives... Or even Martha Stewart - who is Polish, and has some great recipes from her mother.
Good luck, and Congratulations!
Reply:The dollar dance is a Polish tradition. The Polish weddings I have been to gave you a shot before you got to dance with the bride or groom.
Polka seems to be pretty popular among the Polish also.
Most other traditions I have seen have been food related.
Reply:Wow, I was seriously thinking about asking that question this morning. I plan to try to add a little something to my wedding that's Polish also, but having a hard time finding stuff online. My dad's 100%, so his family (the majority of our guests) will appriciate the little touches even if it's not a polish ceremony.
Reply:Hello! The chair dance! Where the bride and the groom have to wear a silly hat and then they are hoisted up on the chairs while the people holding them dance around. So funny. And makes for great pictures. My mom and dad did it. Dad had a condom on his hat. Hilarious! Best picture in their wedding album. My fiance isn't down for the tradition, but it will happen. My Polish family won't let it go.
Reply:You can't have a Polish wedding without a lot of beer and vodka, kielbasa and saurkraut (the REAL stuff, not the cheap smoked stuff), pierogies, and lets not forget POLKA!!!!
Reply:There's a tradition at the wedding reception where the bride (and sometimes the groom) dance with the guests when the guests pay a few dollars per dance. This a way to raise money to pay for the reception and also help the couple start their new life.
Reply:Yes.
All the guests are supposed to get good and hammered on Vodka, play plenty of Bobby Vinton and serve Kielbasa and sour Kraut.
Przyjemnego dnia!!!!
Reply:i'm polish too, my mom is 100% polish. she said that every polish wedding they play polka music. so ask your dj to play a couple polka songs throughout the night.

Polish Divorce?
A Polish man moved to the USA and married an American girl. Although his English was far from perfect, they got along very well until one day he rushed into a lawyer's office and asked him if he could arrange a divorce for him.
The lawyer said that getting a divorce would depend on the circumstances, and asked him the following questions:
L: Have you any grounds?
P: Yes, an acre and half and nice little home.
L: No, I mean what is the foundation of this case?
P: It made of concrete.
L: I don't think you understand. Does either of you have a real grudge?
P: No, we have carport, and not need one.
L: I mean. What are your relations like?
P: All my relations still in Poland
L: Is there any infidelity in your marriage?
P: We have hi-fidelity stereo and good DVD player.
L: Does your wife beat you up?
P: No, I always up before her.
L: Is your wife a ******?
P: No, she white.
L: Why do you want this divorce?
P: She going to kill me.
L: What makes you think that?
P: I got proof.
L: What kind of proof?
P: She going to poison me. She buy a bottle at drugstore and put on shelf in bathroom. I can read, and it say: 'Polish Remover'

Polish workers?
I work in a local factory in a deprived area and we were told that the management would be bringing in "hard working english speaking polish workers" what actually happened was polish guys were brought in with no grasp on the english language except what we have taught them ,which makes our particular work very dangerous because of the language barrier. The guys are all sound and pleasant enough but work is now unsafe....has anyone got any views on this?
Polish workers?
In a dangerous working environment, a manager that can not explain the dangers and proper working practices to a worker is a liability.
No-one who can not explain themselves clearly and in a way that everyone can understand should not be given a managerial role.
Can you imagine what would happen if a new worker lost a hand in an accident caused by insufficient health and safety information being given? The company who employed the manager would be 100% to blame and could (and should!) be sued for every penny (cent?) they have.
Reply:It's cheap labour mate, Same is happening in France, get in the Polish/Portugese (?) cheapo's. They will work for as little as 4-6€ an hour
Reply:if these guys aren't legal call the feds.
Reply:There's not a lot you can do really, except contact the local HSE
Reply:This is a very small planet. How many European languages do you speak? Little Island Britain needs to realise that it's two way traffic...what goes around comes around. Blame your own Government and greedy company owners, not the honest workers, who like us, have the right to move freely within the European community to live and work. It suits the British government and the fat cats if the majority of people are ignorant to the truth and our European neighbours. I mean, if we were all switched on there probably wouldn't be many people left in Britain to pay all these stealth taxes etc. There's no country or power without the people. To hijack one of the governments ad-campaigns, "Those who can....leave!!"
Reply:The polish are here to stay I'm afraid. So everyone should get used to the idea.
Reply:In the late 80's, Ford in Dagenham had to give their shop floor workers English lessons because such a high percentage of them could not read the signs on how to turn the machines off in case of an accident.
And you are complaining that Poles can't speak English! At least they work their arses off.
Reply:i think that it should be part of the criteria that all migrants should be able to read, write %26amp; speak English
Reply:If they work hard whats the prob?
Reply:If accidents are occuring often in this certain job of yours, then you should contact your health advisers, and list a complaint of these events that happen. Sorry I don't have the site for this. As for bringing new polish workers, it's good they are getting work, but with the things you said they shouldn't put more people in there if it's dangerous. Try to communicate a health inspector ASAP.
Reply:yes I know the polish are very nice BUT ..think if you are going to work in UK learn the language its important why should we learn yours this is UK we speak English and you are eroding what our unions fought for years to get us health and safety and a fair wage
Reply:i know how you feel i had the same problem with a job i had and i was the supervisor. i was also told they would speak english but the polish had no idea..am sure you know yourself how hard it is to tell sumone who dont speak english by hand signal. i tryed to work by heath and safety rule's but it was impossible i complained to the boss's that it was a safety issue but they just ignored me. a week later 3 people were crushed 1 with a broken back because of communication problem( guess who got the blame) i was not even in the same room when it happened i tryed my best with them but it was no use i lasted 6 days after that it was a nitemare.. i dont have a problem with them working in this country, they are good workers but they should be forced to learn standard english before they are allowed to work in this country
Reply:If you think the Safety of your job has been compromised make a call to the Health and Safety Executive. It is your employers legal duty to ensure that you have a safe and comfortable environment to work in, if he is not doing this he is breaking the law. The Health and Safety at Work act covers every person in the UK That has a job, including people that are self employed.It is your choice, have an accident, and be told that it was your own fault that you should have reported to the HSE. There are 2 many employers still getting away with this kind of treatment.
Reply:when you employ problems, you get problems.

Reply:yes I know the polish are very nice BUT ..think if you are going to work in UK learn the language its important why should we learn yours this is UK we speak English and you are eroding what our unions fought for years to get us health and safety and a fair wage
Reply:i know how you feel i had the same problem with a job i had and i was the supervisor. i was also told they would speak english but the polish had no idea..am sure you know yourself how hard it is to tell sumone who dont speak english by hand signal. i tryed to work by heath and safety rule's but it was impossible i complained to the boss's that it was a safety issue but they just ignored me. a week later 3 people were crushed 1 with a broken back because of communication problem( guess who got the blame) i was not even in the same room when it happened i tryed my best with them but it was no use i lasted 6 days after that it was a nitemare.. i dont have a problem with them working in this country, they are good workers but they should be forced to learn standard english before they are allowed to work in this country
Reply:If you think the Safety of your job has been compromised make a call to the Health and Safety Executive. It is your employers legal duty to ensure that you have a safe and comfortable environment to work in, if he is not doing this he is breaking the law. The Health and Safety at Work act covers every person in the UK That has a job, including people that are self employed.It is your choice, have an accident, and be told that it was your own fault that you should have reported to the HSE. There are 2 many employers still getting away with this kind of treatment.
Reply:when you employ problems, you get problems.

Polish Language?
I asked this a few days ago and got a great answer. I spoke to my grandfather in law today though who is Ukrainian and he says the language is not Russian as he can speak Russian. This statement must be polish but again i cannot read every word correctly so it may not make complete sense:
"I have recieved a Christmas Card from my Polish neighbours but can't understand what it means. Please can you translate the following:
Padlupcci elloiuki ua stole wodki i szyuki, wesoiyou kolpoluikow, podukow bez liku, duzepo beiuwaue i zabowy olo (or do) raue.
I'm afraid that I may have mis read some words but they may sound alike."
Polish Language?
I'm polish,no,it's not. Some of the spellings are similiar to the polish language though,like ''wodki'' (wódki,plural of vodka),''szyuki'' (possibly szynki,ham),''wesoiyou (wesołych,happy),''bez'' (bez,without),''duzepo'' (dużego,big),''zabowy'' (zabawy,fun),''do'' (do,to).
In my opinion it sounds more like russian,although I don't know this language too well yet. There are a lot of differences between the 2,and I think you missed a few key words,but the message is more-or-lessly clear,the person writing this is sending the receptant greetings for the holiday.
Reply:it´s not Polish for sure but some words sound similar to Polish
it must be another eastern european language
Reply:Am I allowed to make a joke of your Question. ? Thanks ! They said now that its Christmas would you refrain from putting your rubbish out over their side of the fence.
Reply:hi,

That sounds like the song "Zatańcz ze mną" by Edyta Bartosiewicz:
Zatańcz ze mną jeszcze raz
Otul twarzą moją twarz
Co z nami bedzie? Za oknem świt
Tak nam dobrze mogło być
Gdy Ciebie zabraknie
I ziemia rozstąpi się, w nicości trwam
Gdy kiedyś odejdzisz
Nas już nie będzie i siebie nie znajdziesz też
Zatańcz ze mną jeszcze raz
Chce chłonąć każdy oddech Twój
Co z nami będzie? Uwierz mi
Tak jak ja, nie kochał nikt
Gdy Ciebie zabraknie
I ziemia rozstąpi się, w nicości trwam
Gdy kiedyś odejdziesz
Nas już nie będzie i siebie nie znajdziesz też [x2]
W salonie wśród ciepłych świec już nigdy nie zbudzisz mnie
Już nigdy nie powiesz mi, jak bardzo kochałeś mnie
Kochałeś mnie
kochałeś mnie
Czy słyszysz jak tam, daleko, muzyka gra
Zatańcz ze mną jeszcze raz
Gdy Ciebie zabraknie
I ziemia rozstąpi się, w nicości trwam
Gdy kiedyś odejdziesz

Polish joke - no offense?
A German scientist, an American scientist and a polish scientist were working on an experiment. The german scientist put a fly in a Petri dish and pulled its back legs off and said “fly, fly”. They fly flew around the room and back onto the dish. he writes in his book “fly’s can fly without their back legs”.
The American scientist pulls the front legs off of the fly and says “fly, fly”. They fly flies around the room and lands back on the dish. he writes in his book “fly’s can fly without any legs”.
The polish scientist pulls fly’s wings off and says “fly, fly”…” FLY, FLY”. He stands there for a minute and then writes in his notebook “flies cannot hear with out their wings”.

Polish Dumpling Soup Recipe?
I've had the BEST polish dumpling soup at a local restaurant here. Unfortunately, they are not willing to share the recipe. Is there anyone out there who knows a good recipe for Polish dumpling soup that I can make myself? (its great when you're not feeling well and the weather is cold and you need some comfort food). :) thanks for any help
Polish Dumpling Soup Recipe?
Dumpling Soup
INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 egg
3/4 cup water, or as needed
6 medium potatoes - peeled and cubed
1 teaspoon salt
8 cups water
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
4 ounces sliced bacon, diced
1 large onion, chopped
DIRECTIONS
In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder and salt. Crack the egg into a measuring cup, and add enough water to equal 1 cup. Whisk with a fork. Gradually stir the egg-water and oil into the flour mixture with the fork until a soft dough is formed. Use your hands to mix the dough until is smooth and no longer sticky, adding more flour or water as needed. Cover the bowl, and set aside until the potatoes are ready.
Place potatoes in a large pot with the salt and water, and bring to a boil. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes, until potatoes are tender.
Meanwhile, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon and onion; cook and stir until onions are golden and bacon is cooked. Set aside.
When the potatoes are cooked, pinch off small pieces of the dough, and drop them into the boiling potato water. Turning the dough in your hand will help keep it from sticking to your fingers. Once all of the dumplings have been added, you can stir in the bacon and onions. Ladle some of the water from the soup into the skillet, and swish it around to clean out all of the tasty bits and juices. Pour back into the soup. Turn off the soup, and let stand for a few minutes before serving.

Polish Cuisine?
I have a friend who is originally from Poland and would like to make a traditional Polish meal for her. Any suggestions? There is a Polish food shop nearby so I should be able to get various special ingredients although I've never actually been in there.
Polish Cuisine?
Try making or purchasing some golabki's (stuffed cabbage rolls), and some pierogi. Breaded pork cutlets are also very good. When I don't feel like cooking up a big polish meal, I'll go to my local polish deli and get some breaded pork cutlets, some pierogi, and some salads from the deli then make some mashed potatoes...yumm.

BABKA (POLISH BREAD)
INGREDIENTS
1 1/4 cups margarine, softened
2 cups milk
2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
5 eggs
4 egg yolks
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon orange liqueur
3 tablespoons grated orange zest
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
10 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups dried currants
1 1/2 cups raisins
1 1/2 cups golden raisins
1 cup chopped blanched slivered almonds
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup all-purpose flour
DIRECTIONS
Place yeast in a small bowl, and pour warm water over it. Stir with a spoon to break up the yeast. Set aside for 2 to 3 minutes.
In a small saucepan, scald milk. Add 1 cup butter or margarine, and stir until melted. Remove from heat, and let cool until lukewarm.
In a mixing bowl, beat 4 eggs and egg yolks with an electric mixer with a paddle attachment. Add sugar and salt, and continue to beat until mixture is thick and pale. Add vanilla, orange-flavored liqueur, zests, and yeast mixture. Combine. Beat in 4 cups flour gradually. Add milk mixture alternately with remaining 4 cups flour while beating on medium speed. Add up to an additional 1 cup flour if the dough is sticky. Mix in currants, raisins, golden raisins, and almonds.
Transfer dough to a clean large bowl. Knead using a large wooden spoon until the dough pulls away and doesn't stick to the spoon, about 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer dough to a large buttered bowl, and turn to coat. Cover with plastic wrap. Place in a warm place until dough reaches the top of the bowl, about 1 to 2 hours. Punch the dough down, re-cover the bowl, and allow to rise again.
Butter 3 angel food cake pans. In a small bowl, combine 1 cup flour, 4 tablespoons butter or margarine, brown sugar, and cinnamon to form crumb topping. Sprinkle evenly among the 3 pans.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Punch the dough down again. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 1 minute. Cut into thirds, and transfer dough to prepared pans. Cover loosely with plastic wrap. Allow to rise to the top of pan. Beat remaining egg, and brush the top of the dough.
Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) until golden brown and hollow sounding when tapped, about 30 to 45 minutes. Immediately turn out onto a cooling rack so bread does not stick to the pan. Cool.

POLISH PEROGIES
INGREDIENTS
4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 cups sour cream
2 eggs
1 egg yolk
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
8 baking potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons processed cheese sauce
1 dash onion salt to taste
1 pinch salt and pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS
In a large bowl, stir together the flour and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the butter, sour cream, eggs, egg yolk and oil. Stir the wet ingredients into the flour until well blended. Cover the bowl with a towel, and let stand for 15 to 20 minutes.
Place potatoes into a pot, and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain, and mash with shredded cheese and cheese sauce while still hot. Season with onion salt, salt and pepper. Set aside to cool.
Separate the perogie dough into two balls. Roll out one piece at a time on a lightly floured surface until it is thin enough to work with, but not too thin so that it tears. Cut into circles using a cookie cutter, perogie cutter, or a glass. Brush a little water around the edges of the circles, and spoon some filling into the center. Fold the circles over into half-circles, and press to seal the edges. Place perogies on a cookie sheet, and freeze. Once frozen, transfer to freezer storage bags or containers.
To cook perogies: Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Drop perogies in one at a time. They are done when they float to the top. Do not boil too long, or they will be soggy! Remove with a slotted spoon.

Reply:POLISH APRICOT-FILLED COOKIES
Fredricka Schwanka of Terryville, Connecticut, re-created her grandmother's recipe for these pastrylike cookies. This dough is extremely tender — if at any time during the filling process it gets too soft to work with, chill it on wax paper on a large baking sheet. You will have leftover filling, which is wonderful spread on toast or an English muffin.

For pastry dough
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 oz cream cheese, softened
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, softened
1 large egg, lightly beaten with 2 teaspoons water for egg wash
For apricot filling
1 3/4 cups coarsely chopped dried apricots (10 oz)
1/2 cup golden raisins
2/3 cup mild honey
1/4 cup sweet orange marmalade
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup water
Special equipment: parchment paper
Garnish: confectioners sugar
Make dough:
Whisk together flour and salt in a bowl until combined.
Beat cream cheese and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer at medium-high speed until pale and creamy, about 3 minutes in a stand mixer (preferably fitted with a paddle attachment) or 6 minutes with a handheld. Reduce mixer speed to low, then add flour mixture and mix just until combined.
Divide dough into 4 equal pieces and wrap each in plastic wrap. Chill until firm, about 1 1/2 hours.
Make filling while pastry chills:
Bring apricots, raisins, honey, marmalade, cinnamon and water to a boil in a 2- to 3-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring, until dried fruit is softened and mixture is thick, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and cool until warm, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Chill until cold, about 2 hours.
Assemble and bake cookies:
Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 375°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment.
Roll out 1 piece of dough (keep remaining pieces chilled) between 2 (12-inch) sheets of well-floured wax paper with a rolling pin into a roughly 11-inch square. (If dough gets too soft, transfer dough in wax paper to a baking sheet and chill until firm.) Discard top sheet of wax paper and trim dough with a pastry wheel or sharp knife into a 10-inch square. Cut square into 4 equal strips, then cut crosswise in fourths again to form a total of 16 (2 1/2-inch) squares.
Working quickly, place 1 heaping teaspoon filling in center of each square. Brush 2 opposite corners with egg wash, then bring corners together and pinch firmly to adhere. (If dough becomes too soft, freeze it on a baking sheet for a few minutes.)
Arrange cookies 2 inches apart on baking sheet. Bake until golden, 17 to 20 minutes, then transfer with a metal spatula to racks to cool completely. Make more cookies with remaining dough and filling on a lined cooled baking sheet.
Cooks' note:
Cookies keep, layered between sheets of wax paper or parchment, in an airtight container at room temperature 4 days.
Makes about 5 dozen.
Reply:polish cuisine consists alot of the same as most Scandinavian and Bavarian cuisines. mainly alot of potatoes, cabbage, pork sausage and such. i suggest a nice kielbasa sausage with sauteed onions, boiled potatoes and braised red cabbage in wine.

How do you get nail polish out of a carpet?
I spilled a drop of red/pink nail polish on my carpet which is a beige color. I tried nail polish removed and kitchen cleaner, but it is stil really obvious. We are moving out really soon and already got our carpets cleaned, i dont want to do that again for just one tiny spot. What can I do to get it out??? Help?!?
How do you get nail polish out of a carpet?
i would Like to no tht aswell Lol
Reply:cant you just colour it in with felt pens to match your carpet?
Reply:yeah try WD 40
Reply:there is a liquid called "goo gone" you can get it at any hardware store i think it will get rid of it
Reply:if you can't get it out with "goo be gone", and if it is a very small spot, then take a razor blade and gently cut the fiber that has the polish on it. This can work as long as the spot is small and won't leave a gaping hole in the carpet. if the carpet has the longer fibers, then after you cut out the spot, find an inconspicuous part of the carpet (in the closet) and gently cut a few fibers; then with clear glue, tap the cut fibers into the space you cut out.
Reply:You will want to test this in a corner of a closet first to make sure it will not damage or discolor your carpet fibers but, I think it will solve your problem.Try using acetone or nail tip remover.It's available at beauty supply stores%26amp; retail stores such as Walmart.Afterwards wash the spot with laundry detergent or a dish liquid that's not antibacterial as you don't want to mix chemicals.

Polish Divorce?
A Polish man moved to the USA and married an American girl.
Although his English was far from perfect, they got along very well until
one day he rushed into a lawyer's office and asked him if he could arrange a divorce for him.
The lawyer said that getting a divorce could depend on the circumstances,
and asked him the following questions:
"Have you any grounds"?
"Yes, an acre and half and nice little home".
"No, I meant what is the foundation of this case"?
It's made of concrete "I don't think you understand. Does either of you
have a real grudge"?
"No, we have carport, and not need one".
I mean, what are your relations like?
"All my relations still in Poland".
"Is there any infidelity in your marriage"?
"We have hi-fidelity stereo and good DVD player".
"Does your wife beat you up"?
"No, I always up before her".
"Is your wife a ******"?
"No, she white".
"Why do you want this divorce"?
"She going to kill me".
"What makes you think that"?
"I got proof".
"What kind of proof"?
"She going to poison me. She buy a bottle at drugstore and put on shelf in
bathroom. I can read, and it say: "Polish Remover"

Reply:Your objective is to improve your knowledge of the language. The objective of children’s books is very different, and improving language knowledge is often of minor importance. Children’s books assume native knowledge of the language and can wander off into trendy colloquialisms that even a native adult may not understand.
Polish requires a strong grammatical discipline, and I would recommend using structured adult teaching texts, which include notes on vocabulary, grammar and stretching concepts. I have in mind the “old-fashioned” language textbooks I used at school – they worked wonders for me both in school and when self-teaching other languages later. Then, as soon as you can, move to reading newspapers or magazines, which in all languages are written in an accessible manner, without too much abstruse vocabulary.
There appears to be a textbook of this type at: http://www.bookcity.pl/5994/We_Learn_Pol...
Good luck!

Polish Translation Please. Possibly old dialect?
I am trying to find out more about my Polish ancestory. I believe that this is from a funeral from my fathers sibling before my father was born. I know that my grandmother had 2 children that died before he was born. Can anyone translate it for me? Some of the letters have slashes over them. My father cannot speak Polish and my Grandmother has passed away. Thank you in advance.

Can you wear too much nail polish?
Is it weird that I always wear nail polish?
I don't like my fingernails (or toenails, for that matter) if they're unpolished -- my fingernails are somewhat yellowish in hue, maybe because I don't drink milk or get enough vitamins (not sure why, but I'm not anemic) or just wear nail polish too often. I don't know . . . I just feel more put together if I wear nail polish, like the rest of me can look like a mess but as long as my nails are done, it's okay.
I usually wear a really light and somewhat inconspicuous pink polish, at least on my fingers, like one of these: www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.j...
www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail...
Do you find it weird that I always have to have nail polish on? I've never spent money on a manicure (I always do my nails myself) but I don't think that I've worn my nails bare since last summer at the least.
(If the above links aren't working, see my other question here: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...
Can you wear too much nail polish?
im like you, i am ALWAYS painting my nails!!!!!!! im pretty good at it actually...lol anyways. having polish on your nails is what makes them turn yellow. we should probably stop polishing so often...SO HARD!!! i ♥ my nail polish!!
Reply:It depends. Usually dark or red nail polish will leave a yellow hue when you take it off.
Reply:yes you can wear too much nail polish. like when your nails actually start to change colors or when you get blotches under your nails that is when you know that you need to take a break. i had to learn that lesson the hard way. lol
Reply:It's no problem that you always wear nail polish. One of my friends always has to have lipstick on - even when going to bed. I tell her she's weird, but whatever makes her happy....
Reply:your question reminded me of this clip of kat williams.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtaIqvKvW...
funny as hell. hope this helps you get some perspective on the situation.
Reply:yes
Reply:No, it's not weird. I love nail polish, I always wear a clear coat, and on the weekends, I wear a shimmery pink, because they won't let us wear polish at school. I can't see your hue cuz your link isn't working. That's fine as long as you keep them clean.
Reply:No. My LA teacher gets hers done weekly and actually got them done right before she went into labor. I still dont find that weird. Its a girl thing; its understandable. Thats a really cute pink! And you cna only wear too much if its on freakishly long nails.

Polish Advertising In Britain?
Was driving through the lovely People's Republic of Newham the other week and was somewhat surprised to see some of the adverts on the bus shelters were in Polish. Can someone tell me why we are we permitting exclusively Polish advertising in Britain? Is this not detrimental to the ability of immigrants to integrate with the indigenous communities in this country?
Polish Advertising In Britain?
Lol in Caerphilly Miners' Hospital there are posters on the walls in Polish
(apparently advertising Polish-only Ante Natal and Mother and Baby classes according to one of the midwives who was as amused by it as I was)
Now in Wales we are used to having Bilingual Welsh/English posters but POLISH?!
So much for "its only single young people coming here to work for a few years and then going home" if they need ante natal classes in Polish!
Reply:You can find adverts written in English language in Poland.
As far as the ability of immigrants to integrate is concerned, take a look at this link, it's a site for Brits in Poland.
http://expats-in-poland.com/
On the forums many are seeking expat English nationals for meetings, socialising etc
That will give you some idea of the none existent effort many of the English make to integrate with The Poles.
It is just the same as many of the Brits in Spain. They start their own little communities because they are too lazy to learn the language and integrate.
Perhaps this is just the case that some of the English don't want to accept the Poles in the UK.
By the way I'm English, living in Poland. I did take the trouble to learn the language. It's the same all over the world if you have a go at speaking the language, most nations will respect you for it and be happy to accept you into their community. Perhaps one exception to the rule is the UK where some people tend to think they are better than the rest.
Reply:So what about English advertising in Spain? You see it everywhere.
Reply:I agree with Mr Sceptic %26amp; think you are nothing short of being a racist. The Polish community in Edinburgh is huge. I have Polish friends now. I have no problems with advertisements in Polish, or anything else Polish for that matter. Good luck to all my Polish friends!
Xenophobes attract Xenophobes as I have seen from some of the answers to your question.
Reply:god i wish britain would leave the EU so we could kick them all out
Reply:I understand your opinion entirely and have to agree. Lets hope the advert flops and the company that used it learn from it.
Reply:Where's Newham. Is it middleclass. You don't want to
know the reply I've just cancelled.
Reply:So you are saying that advertising in a language other than English should not be allowed?
All immigrants should learn to speak English as soon as they can - it is impossible to function in UK without a working knowledge of English.
But not permitting advertising in other languages? I think you're taking things a bit too far.
Reply:I personally don't have much of a problem with Polish people coming to the UK to work. The trouble is there seems to be so many of them.
I think they should learn to speak English as best they can, and most of them do try to be honest. Having advertising exclusively in Polish is just a sign that things are changing... and people don't like change.
But you can't blame the advertisers. If they are targeting a specific audience then they will do that. Although it would be nice to see some adverts with a mixture of the two languages.
The guy who answered first may have 5 thumbs down, and counting, but he does have a point. Why do we have to be so stuck up that we can't accept foreign people into our country, and when they do come we demand them to learn our language... The Americans are having the exact same debate about the Hispanic invasion, but it's true that some of them (a minority I admit) are embracing the changes and using it as an excuse to learn Spanish.
I must admit I've never thought about the prospect of learning Polish before, but something tells me it might become a handy skill to have in a few years time.
The fact is, these guys are coming here and doing the jobs we won't do becasue we're too lazy... I hate these pikey's on the telly who stand there and say "Deyz're cummin over 'ere an nickin' all r jobz innit bruv" but if you asked that guy wether he has actually gone out and applied for a plumbing job or even picked up a hammer in his life he'll say "aaahh nahh my only job is getting up early once a week to stand in the dole queue"... So some of us should be thankful for the presence of our European friends.
My only concern is not for the state of Britain, but of Poland. In coming here to work in droves, they are leaving behind work in Poland that needs doing and they are running out of people to do it.

Reply:I see your point and agree to some extent, I do not like to see foreign advertising but it doesn't bother me. I agree that immigrants should be encouraged to learn and speak English . When I was living in Germany I learnt the language and got a lot of reward for it, the locals were very supportive in my first few months, the shameful thing to me was they all spoke very good English.
One thing we should consider though is our behaviour in non English speaking countries, I have observed English holiday makers behaving absolutely appallingly because the locals could not understand them, perhaps we as a nation should look at our own behaviour abroad before judging others.
Personally I have no problem with Polish nationals and this country owes them a lot, we seriously let them down in the last war when we failed to fulfil our promise to them.
Generally I agree with what you are saying, but I drove past a sign yesterday that was in French, now they are a people I have a problem with.
Reply:Surely the answer is to put adverts on poles, like those socialist 'park for for seven hours in your own street' poles and get the Poles to opress the native English who complain?

Reply:Lets address the situation.
The birth rate in the UK is now 1.4 children per family. This is not enough to sustain people to work and pay the the ever expanding OAP population. Therefore we should thank the Poles for coming over and assisting us in our time of crisis.
The other alternative is for our people of this nation to breed more.
The more important question is, "When Germany opens its borders to the Poles and they leave our great country who is going to work and pay our OAP's pensions then"?
Reply:Maybe you should learn Polish. Every intelligent person in America already speaks spanish.

Polish something: Magellonian?
What is Magellonian? They're Polish and they're some kind of group. What do they do? What's their history? What does the name mean? A lot of people wear their shirts, they're dark blue or red with white letting saying Magellonian across a circle with Polish on the outside of it.
Polish something: Magellonian?
Could it be Jagiellonian? That's the name of a famous Polish University in Krakow, and the university seal is dark blue. The name is sometimes spelled Jagellonian, without an "i" after the g. Here's their web site, see if anything looks familiar:
http://www.uj.edu.pl/index.en.html
It's also the name of one of Poland's ruling families from the middle ages.

Polish Events?
I'm looking for a website that will let me know whats going on where in the Polish community....I want to know where Polish events are taking place...can anyone please help me with this...thx
Polish Events?
Where do you live? We can't answer this without at least a country name, if not a specific city.
That said... look up the Polish embassy for your country. The Polish embassy in Canada has lists of events and Polish community groups for each province and territory. I'm sure you can find something similar where you live.
Reply:most ethnic groups have their own organizations
if you are in the U S then go to a search engine (Yahoo! is good) and type Polish and the name of your city
and that will probably bring up events as well as any Polish organizations that are there
also, you can do this with cities you simply wish to go to (if you are like me you go different places to go to these events, even out of the country)
and the online Yellow Pages use them...put in Polish and it will probably give you names and phone numbers of Polish organizations, who in turn can tell you where and when events are
I would also check cities that have large Polish populations
I have been to a few Polish festivals and they are fun, the people were nice, and the food is excellent
good luck
