Dear Friends,
Czesc koledrze,
Zapraszam wszystko do Polish
Times-u.Dzisiaj zbadamy o' Jezyk po polsku.miejmy nadzieje, bendzie ciekawy.
Jezyk po polsku jest bardzo po prostu i ....$&#%$^%#(
OK..Ok .. Before you all lose
ur (whatever existing) hairs..I stop this... You couldn't stand even one
line,how about me.. Dont worry,I tried here to see the lighter side of
the Language.
Polish Made Easy
Polish is 1 of the Slavic
languages (like czeck,slovkia & few other hard-to-spell countries)..
Polish is not at all difficult.. Chumma easy.:)
NOTE -> Following steps are
fully patented by POLISH TIMES, any usage without permission will lead
to prosecution.
That's IT!!! U got a "Polish
Word"... Simpler than Fixing a cricket match..(Oops!! Sorry for using the
dirty word- 'fix'), Mind you, due to font problems I have not use those
tailed,horned words in poland letters, so dont try to find some typographic
errors..
Example:::For 'MAN', the polish
word is, Me,z'czyzna - "Meounjchzyichnaaaa" - Little close!!. First time,
no wonder my "Tongue" turned "TIE" with two Knots.
Surprise! Surprise!! I found
few relation between Hindi & Polish especially numbers. Look at this...especially
pronounciation..
Two -Dwa - Do
Four - cztery -chaar
Five - piench - panch
Six - czesc - che
Seven - siodem - saath
100- sto - sow & so on....
As I told before, it someone
tell you PIWO, dont think they are offering water, its actually "BEER"..
Pani - means lady.. & so on..
Conclusion : Even before me,
One more guy mostly an indian king was here for On-site Project long back...:-)

**Back to Polish Lessons....
Regarding European Languages,
french is very funny, First time when my french friend spoke in french,
Very innocently I said "Hey Filip, either swallow the chocolate or speak,
dont do both". Its as if full of vowels alone.. He boasted that it was
called intellectual Language..(For what reason!!)
German is straight opposite,
they sound so harsh that you think that they just swallowed few peices
of Broken Glasses.
Only 1% of polish speak english,
partly true. As my friends point out, untill 10 years ago. everyone had
to learn Russian with POlish.. So nobody was there to teach english to
teach them. Now due to capitalisation, more & more people are learning
english language. Good demand for english teachers..
I would like to give an funniest
example why language is so important..
Real Life Joke !
My friend Filip with his parents
who came from Paris to visit him, was in some Mountain Village last month.
While visiting a church in the evening, a women came to him & asked
"Ktora Godzina?" - "what's the time?". He understood the question but didn't
know to say 4:40 pm. But since his parents knew that he is attending polish
classes (with me), they looked at him for what he will say. To save his
face, He said "O pianty" - "its 5'O clock".. which is the closest he knows
to say..
That lady ran all the way
to the Church, started to ring the Huge Church Bell.. DING DONG DING DONG..
This guy knowing what mistake he has done left the place soon. Probably
she would have lost her job & I heard that she is wandering around
the mountain areas with a Long Samurai Sword.. I dont know why Filip is
hesistating to go to Mountains with us....:-)
Being more sympathetic &
cautious, I show them with my fingers, somtimes using my leg fingers too..
A BIG THANKS!!
I felt happy to see some immediate
responses with recipes for my last week outburst (Wasn't it so?).. I am
trying all those recipes one by one & soon will be in polish times...
Thanks for Regu, saying that
you people never really missed me & its feel like I am personally updating
all every week thru polish times which is regular & nice..
Next week, Check it out...
