Hey all! Could someone please translate this song from Polish to English? I've found German translations, but I don't really know enough German so as to figure out the gist of it. Thanks in advance! (Btw, is there a particular reason "Cie" is capitalized? Is it a pronoun/name? O_o) I figured I'd find translations somewhere since he's kind famous, ( Read more... )

1. I was reading a book recently in which a character had a Polish grandmother that she called "Babcia." Is this an actual Polish word/nickname for grandmother? If so, how is it pronounced? My guesses are BAB-sha or bab-SEE-a, but I'm really not sure ( Read more... )

Does anyone speak the epic win that is Polish?* :3 I'm not sure if this is allowed in the community but basically I'm looking for Polish music, but I haven't a clue where to start.

I'd like to know how to pronounce "kotek" (kitten) in Polish.

Please note that I don't speak Polish at all.

Thanks a bunch :-)

My mom sent me some scans of letters either to or from her grandfather who was from somewhere in the former Yugoslavia AFAIK. He died when he was young, so we don't know what his original name even was, ethnicity, or what language he spoke. I think these letters are Polish, but the handwriting is too hard for me to read to be able to make a better ( Read more... )
