Polish dog name?

my nan got a dog off a polish man and the name on the paper sais "devie" how do u say that in polish?

Polish dog name?
Devie.





My mother's family is Polish. My Babcia told me some names are the same in Polish and English.
Reply:deevee i think
Reply:I'm not Polish but I would guess 'Dee-vy'.
Reply:Why didn't "nan" ask the Polish man how to say it?


It is not easy when writing, (not speaking,) to tell you how to pronounce it, regardless of what language I use.


You could change its name to something else, the dog will get use to a new name. Dogs don't really know what their name is. I have called my Mom's dog several different names and it will come to me no matter what name I use to show her that dogs don't know what their name is. If you have a bowl of food in your hand, the dog doesn't care what you call it! Seriously, I have tried it with several dogs, and so far every one of them responds no matter what name I use. Try it, you will see I am right!!


I think you should call it "Devski" nice Polish name, don't ya think? Or how about "Jurkoffski"?

What nail polish can I replace my discontinued Maybelline "snowglobe" with? Clear with small white "snow"

It was a clear polish with small white "snow" small dots , so when you wore the nail polish it looked like poca dots or a snowglobe. Is there any brand of another nail polish that is simliar? Please suggest.. thanks

P.S. I made it myself so it's low fat (lean ham not kielbasa) and I rinse the sauerkraut so I get rid of lots of the salt.
Reply:Polish girls are so-o-o-o-o-o-o georgeous and beautiful... so the food must be better eh? As they say: "you are what you eat". QED.
Reply:Ah! Polish food! It's so good. It's sexy. Polish food is the most under appreciated food from Europe, perhaps the world. The pancakes and cabbage dishes sausages. Ummm!


But I DO like Chinese food a little better. Had a girl friend who used to make it. A Chinese girl friend, that is. The Polish girls wouldn't go out with me. But I do love Polish food!
Reply:well i have never had polish food so i can't really say but my guess would be that most people prefer chinese food because there are more chinese food places than polish food
Reply:depends !!


how many chinese does it take to make a polack dish??
Reply:I am neither Polish or Chinese (i'm Scottish) but I like both! I am especially fond of my good friend Wiola's Pierogi. Her Bigos isn't bad either.





Chinese food...i've been a fan as long as I remember. My Dad used to say to me you never saw a fat Chinese person %26amp; I think that he was right.
Reply:I'm Lithuanian, and the only difference in the food is the pronunciation. I hate Chinese food. What's the point of eating if you're going to be hungry before you put down the fork, or in this case, stick? But boiled pork chops, in cabbage and potatoes are good 'till next day at least.
Reply:chinese
Reply:Poland is a small country with one basic "style" of food.





China is a vast country with five or six distinct regions, each with their own basic style of cooking...





I would rather have six choices than one choice, wouldn't you?
Reply:I honestly have not tried Polish food. What would a typical Polish dinner be like? I do like Chinese, but would try Polish, if it were offered.

What nail polish is your favorite?

The ones that I've tried that work the best are the Chanel nail polish colors and the Sally Hansen 10-day nail polish. So, are there any suggestions on nail polish colors that last a long time? My favorite for colors is N.Y.C, but it chips easily...so i guess i want to know one that doesn't chip and comes in lots of colors that are fun..

What nail polish is your favorite?
OPI is the best ( to me ) and it last a long time as well ...they even have a chip proof top coat you can apply as well and as for colors .....I don't know of anyone else that has so many different colors to choose from. If you go to their website you can click on try on and this hand comes up and you choose a color and it paints the nails so you get a better idea of how well the colors look on your hand verses just looking at the bottle. And most nice salons carry this brand as well....

Hope this is helpful ~~~


Have fun with this website there are sooo many colors to play with ~~~
Reply:Dont use anything NYC! Its the worst make-up brand out there! I'v never tried Chanel but have heard its good. The best i have tried is MAC polish's! They have great colors and it will not chip for the longest time!

Reply:covergirl and wet n' wild are good for colors...


but i choose to wear the cheap glitter brands. =)


you cant mess up glitter - it's a known fact. slap on as much glitter as you want, and it still looks cute.


i know it sounds like a fifth grade glam tip, but i love to use glitter on my nails. i dont wear a crap-load on my lids, so i think it evens out. =P
Reply:i have one bottle of sally hansen silver nail polish, and it's great, it dries really fast too. the other ones by her last a while too, especially if you use a base and top coat.
Reply:ALL nail polish chip on me, so i don't bother spending my money on overpriced pieces of $#!T. i just buy N.Y.C. / wet n wild / revlon / other drugstore brands.
Reply:I used to think OPI was the best until I tried Essie. My favorite is Essie "Ballet Slippers" for my nails. My favorite for my toes is Chanel "Vamp"
Reply:SALLY HANSON- the one w/ the lycra.





Colours are amazing, lasts forever, and the brush is perfect.
Reply:Try Revlon, its the best

Ingested nail polish?

Ok so Ive ingested bottles of nail polish..I know Ive ingested atleast 100..Im always craving it, probably because of my Pica, but Im always nervous and twitchy/shakey..do you think its because of the nail polish..? What are the dangers of ingesting it? And where should I go from here.. ? I dont want my stomach pumped, and if I tell my mum shell probably get pissed off at me and will complain bout me wastin her work time..so thats most the reason I havent told her that I cant stop yet {[{Ive told her that I TASTED nail polish once and she got mad but I havent told her bout the bottles}]} another reason is that Im afraid I cant stop drinking it..so..yeah..

Ingested nail polish?
hun you really needa call posin controll or 911 ingesting nail polish is very dangrous. I wont go into more details cause I dont wanna scare you,
Reply:you could DIE no kidding call 911 or poison control right now !!! would you rather get yelled at and get ur stomache pumped or die ... ur choice!
Reply:You may be addicted from the fumes of the polish so I would suggest finding something else to eat. Really I'm sure there is something other than nail polish to drink/eat, and keep some of your favorites (chocolate, ice cream, etc.) around to prevent you from thinking about the nail polish. Try to keep the nail polish in a public area of the house so you will be less likely to eat it, and CALL POISON CONTROL, and keep something like ipecac around. I would altogether just get rid of it. The chemicals are very bad for the stomach.
Reply:there is a pretty good chance some of those contain lead too!!!
Reply:go to the hospital
Reply:OMG u need to call poison control or 911 NOW!!!!!

How do I apply nail polish best (what are your secrets on it)?

I need tips on applying nail polish neatly without streaks and clumpy gluggy looking bits on it and so it can last longer.





I bought french polish set and it comes with the orange stick, rosy polish, white polish, clear polish and the stencil stickers.. and tips on that too thanks.

How do I apply nail polish best (what are your secrets on it)?
Choose a nail polish in a color of your choice.


Make sure to have your cottonballs, nail polish remover (acetone), towel, newspaper, and clear nail polish.


Paint your nails in a well-ventilated room. The fumes can be extremely dangerous to your health.


Do not Shake the nail polish bottle as this will cause bubbles. Instead roll the bottle between your hands to warm it up. Open it, and scrape some of the excess nail polish off.


Paint one stripe in the middle. Then, paint a stripe on the left, continuing to the right.


Apply one coat of clear nail polish (base and top coat works best). Let it dry.


Apply your first coat of color to your nails, using only three strokes per finger and painting in an upward motion. Don't worry if it looks too thin. It's supposed to. Let it dry -- if it's even a little sticky, the next coat won't go on.


Apply your second coat of color to your nails. Let it dry.


Apply a last coat of clear nail polish to keep the color lasting for at least 1 more week!





TIPS:





Keep nail polish in the refrigerator. This will keep it from clumping and make it last longer.


If your nail polish clumps up on your nail, remove it with the nail polish remover. If the nail polish is old, roll it between your hands to warm it up. Then, if clumping continues, throw it out. Get a new nail polish.


When painting, keep the coats very thin!


When you mess up, don't stress up! Simply wipe it off with toilet paper and remove all the polish with nail polish remover to get the stuff that the toilet paper missed.


Remember that the top coat is the one everyone will see, and the one that you'll feel. Keep that coat smooth!


If you want sort-of a cool looking texture, wait until the coat is dry enough that you can make fingerprints on it, but not have to clean any off your finger. Then put your finger on it and it will make a finger print! It looks kind of neat from close up.


Run your nails under water after painting. This will give you the chance to feel any bumps without ruining the coat.


If you are in a hurry, use a hair dryer to dry your nails!


If you mess up, get an edge on a piece of toilet paper and gently wipe it off.


Use sparkly and shiny colors! This will get your fingers noticed and you will love it the most!


Don't be afraid to put on stickers or fake gems!


If you don't have the patience to let your nails dry, sit still, wave your arms around like crazy, or watch a movie so that you are busy while your nails dry!


Don't paint on a washcloth; it will make it dirty; use a piece of notebook paper.


If your nails keep breaking and the nail polish makes them look gross, buy some nail hardening fluid (this can be found in the makeup section of drugstores and chemist shops) which you apply before the nail polish. It will make your nails nice and strong so they look long and pretty when painted.
Reply:.... put a little bit of nail polish remover in the bottle... my mums a nail tech... just a tiny little bit... like a drop. this stops all clumps and helps stop streaks. :) also dont buy elcheapo nail polish.... go the good brands you know of. :) they always work best.





With the french set. make sure you let each layer dry... make sure its REALLY dry before taking the sticker off... :)
Reply:Practise applying it with a dark colour 1st because then you can see where your mistakes are.


Ok 1st you need to apply a base coat. It helps the nail polish go on smoother and protects your nail.


Then you need alot of polish on the brush and start from in middle of your nail and then to the tip in 1 stroke, then 1 edge of your nail in 1 stroke, and then the other edge in 1 stroke and finally the middle of your nail again in 1 stroke. You only need to dip the brush in the polish 1 time per nail.


And after its dried add a clear vanish on top to keep the colour there and make it shiney. Hope this helps :)
Reply:Do it in three bits streak down the middle of the nail then a streak down the right side of nail and streak down left of nail, use cotton buds soaked in acetone free nail polish to remove Polish you may have dripped on skin, wait until completely dry to stop smudging and put stencil on and use color to go over tip of nail but do not go over and over as it will end up in a mess just go over tip using one stroke......if this does not work go to nail salon much more relaxing.

Are some polish men hypocrites?

Not to be racist but apparently some Polish men refer to themselves as 'Polaks' as it is Polish for 'Polish man.' But they find it offensive when other people call them 'Polaks.' Is this a bit like when rappers say 'yo ma n!ga,' and when a cracker says it they try to kill him?

Are some polish men hypocrites?
If you look up Polish history, you will know that for a foreigner to call a Polish man a *Polak* meant sudden death.





*Polak* was a code word to identify Catholic Polish people who hid Jewish families during the WWII. Nazis would shout out "Polak" and the Pole in question would be shot dead, instantly, for being suspected of protecting Jews.
Reply:Are some hypocrites polish men?
Reply:I don't know but is suspect your question has something to do with what Israel Shahak would call anti-gentile racism
Reply:Every human being that's ever lived has been a hypocrite to some extent.
Reply:Probably many minorities have simliar anomalies.


Gays sometime refer to themselves as poofs, gays, homos, etc., when talking to eachother, but may take offence to it if used against them by straights.





I guess it all depends how the name is said and in what context. If it is used threateningly then of course it's an insult. But if it's used when two friends are chatting, one Pole and one non Pole, It's probably OK.
Reply:Like they can call them Polaks but if you are not Polack I think it's some insult for them. So better don't call them Polack, maybe in their language "Polack" means some offense.
