As a Turk who lives in İstanbul, i didn't know the story behind the Polenezköy till this video. Very nice of you to make people learn something from your contents..
It was truly a unique experience to host you. You are always welcome in Turkey :) The video is amazing and we've watched it without even blinking! Amazing job Easy Polish team!
Thank you for taking me there, Easy Turkish! This was a truly unique experience and this video would have never happened if it wasn't for you! 🧡 Come to visit us in Poland, we can try to see if there are any Turkish communities here! 😃
To niesamowite, że Polacy w Turcji w czwartym pokoleniu tak pięknie mówią po Polsku, a tymczasem w przypadku niedawnych emigrantów do USA czy UK z lat 1980-2000 często już drugie pokolenie traci język ojczysty. // Incredible how the fourth generation of Poles in Turkey speaks perfect Polish while the recent emigrants (1980-2000) to the States or UK often lose their mother tongue in the second generation.
Dla mnie mowia po Polsku lepiej niz wielu Polakow ktorzy wyjechali z kraju. Gdybys czasem posluchala rozmowy w Chicago to czasem mozna sie posikac ze smiechu, choc sam nie jestem bez grzechu i czesto latwiej wtracic angielskie okreslenie zamiast polskiego.
Znam osobiście takie rodziny w których dzieci wyjechały z Polski w wieku 4/5 lat i bardzo słabo mówią po polsku. Często jest też tak, że jak Polak urodzi się za granicą to nie mówi wcale lub kiepsko, mimo , że dla rodziców to pierwszy jeżyk. Choć zdarza się też, że rodzice nawet nie chcą uczyć tego języka, albo z niechęci do narodu albo twierdzą, że im nie będzie przydatny i lepiej żeby znali język kraju w którym mieszkają. Dwujęzyczność według mnie to najlepsza rzecz dla dziecka.
Because europeans want people to assimilate not integate. and that comes from fascism,. in turkey we dont know that, thats why everyone is free to keep its identity. there is no public pressure to make you feel accepted only if you become like a turk.
@@oghuzkhan5117 I think you misunderstand some things. People from Poland who travel to Western Europe or US tend to be ashamed or at least try to hide their identity. Sometimes this comes from external sources (i.e. People from Poland are seen as worse, inferior), but many times it is because we think we will be seen as worse etc. Not to mention we tend to be ashamed of what our governments do, so we try to hide. When I was in Italy with my mother - she used to tell me to pretend I'm British - due to my knowledge of English. Because she thought we would be seen as worse. Even though we were guests of her sister (my Aunt from Poland) and her husband (my Uncle from Italy). BTW my Uncle learned Polish just as my Aunt learned Italian. Their daughter - my beloved cousin - speaks both. She currently teaches Italian in Poland. That is a far cry - and partially opposite to fascism, which tried to weed out even those who were assimilated by making a difference between people of pure blood and those who weren't "pure" for at least 4 generations. People too easily use the word Fascism to describe any idea that they don't think is correct. And unfortunately in this case this is a good example of how not to use word: "fascism" (especially since I assume, you've meant it to cover both Nazism and Fascism).
There is a Polish community in Haiti. Casales is the town. Napoleon brought a Polish army to Haiti, they defected and joined the Haitians during the revolution and the first Haitian constitution grants Poles Haitian citizenship. Plenty of videos about it on UA-cam.
Turkey is a great example of a civilised nation. It does not force minorities to give up their identity and dictate they must assimiliate. France and Germanic countries can learn from Turkey.
Youre totally right, look at England and France colonies for example, they all speak English and French. While old Turkish territories are still using their own language and keeping their cultures. Such as Balkans, Middle East and North African territories.

Benim Türkiye'de kültür araştırma yapmamın sebebiydi. Bir toprakta çeşit çeşit milletlerin henüz asimilasyon olmadan kendi kültürün yaşanabilmenin nedeni ne olduğunu çok merak ettim. Mesela, benim anavatanım Kore, aslında tek millet devleti değildir, bizimkilerde birçok yabancı kökeni vardır. Fakat şu an herkes kendilerini Koreli olduğunu zannedip, Kore kültürünü yaşıyorlar. Demek ki, Türkiye'de Kore kadar toplumsal baskı yoktur. "Koreliler böyle olmalı, Kore'de yaşayanlar böyle yaşamalı" falan yani... Sadece Polonezköy değil, Bursa'da mıydı tam hatırlamıyorum da, hâlâ Boşnakça konuşulan köyün olduğunu gördüm. Iğdır tarafındaysa Azeriler yaşıyorlar, ve güneydoğudaki Mardin'de yaşayan Süryaniler, Araplar....... Türkiye gerçekten mozaik bir toplumdur ve bu nedenle zengin kültür gücüne sahip olduğunu düşünüyorum. It was the reason why I choose to start cultural research in Turkey. I was very curious about the reason why various nations could live their own culture in a land without assimilation yet. For example, my homeland, Korea is not actually a single nation state, We have many foreign origins. But now everyone thinks they are Korean themselves and they live Korean culture. It means, there is no social pressure in Turkey as much as Korea. I mean, "Koreans should be like this, people living in Korea should live like this" etc... Not only in Polonezköy, but I don't remember if it was in Bursa, but I saw that there was still a Bosnian-speaking village. Azeris live on the side of Iğdır, and Assyrians, Arabs living in Mardin in the southeast province.... Turkey is a truly mosaic society and I think it has rich cultural power for that reason.
Bunun sebebi osmanlı devleti'dir. Çünkü osmanlı'da İslam yaşanıyordu ve tüm toplumlar birbiriyle kardeşçe yaşıyordu bu durum aynı zamanda Anadolu müslümanının yapısı ile ilgili çünkü Anadolu Müslümanı çok iyi insanlardır islam'ı ve osmanlı yı araştırma nı tavsiye ederim. Eğer istersen ben sana anlatırım.
Bir hatanızı düzelteyim. Azeriler türktür. Aynı soydanız. Tatarlar kıpçak türküdür mesela. Bunlar boy adı sadece. Daha iyisi olabilir aslında. Türkiyede dillerin yok olması beni üzüyor.

"we were integrated but not assimilated." this sentence is precious to me as a turk. it was the same way towards also other ethnicities but unfortunately they are taught differently.
non-Muslim minorities were not assimilated which is why the people in the video are still speaking their language and are Christians. Muslim Greeks, Laz people, Circassians, Albanians etc were assimilated. They see themselves as turks nowadays and don't speak their languages and don't live out their true culture. This all happened after 1923.
@@lunarspirit4934 Bullshit. Kurds are muslim and still there are kurds who don't know a single word of Turkish. Don't teach our country to us please, wherever you are from. It is not about religion, especially if you are living in Istanbul. People from a million different religious groups live here.
@@aytacdenizacar7703 I am a Greek from Turkey so maybe YOU should not try to whitewash the policy of the Cumhuriyet mentality to me. My family in Izmir doesn't know a single word in Greek. Just because some Kurdish farmers dont know Turkish doesn't mean no minority is uprooted in Turkey
@@lunarspirit4934 With all my respect. i did not say everything went perfectly for all minorities. I just said there is no integration problem based on your religion, and i mean YOUR religion. There is more intolerance towards Alevi-Baktashi minorities and great majority of them have the purest Turkish genes here. Your main problem is you want to live in Greece inside the borders of Turkish Republic and you are also salty because an orphan from Thessaloniki kicked your asses so bad and you are not able to change the history. Next time, study your mother tongue first before English. It is your responsibility, you cannot expect that from Turkish government.
I live in Canada. In 2016 there were over 1 million Polish Canadians in Canada. Where I live in Ontario we have Polish preschool, Polish elementary school which is held on Saturdays for 2 hours and Polish high school on Wednesdays for 3 hours. There is also a Polish deli and market, townhouse called Polonia Park, a church, the Ursuline sister's house, a Polish club called Dom Polski, a Youth group, and in the summer there is a Polish carousel of nations with Polish folk dancing, Polish food like pierogi, pączki, and some booths to buy some clothes with Polish eagle or some jewelry. The Holy Trinity Roman Catholic Parish in Windsor was built in 1918. The first priest for the church I think came from Poland. The Polish school established in 1925.
thanks for the video..its great to see a Polish village in Turkey thriving, has kept the Polish language and culture alive, as a Turk I felt happy for that..I thought most of them went back to Poland, we don't wish them go back as they are part of our society..sadly the Turks ''Tatars'' of Poland couldn't keep their language, ofcourse we blame no one for it as the conditions probably compelled them for, but they're still nominally muslims..we hope Turkish - Polish friendship continue positively for ever..
So bad and sad that the Armenians christian Syrians Chaldeans and mmuslims and christians from Lebanon and even from Persia where subject off Turkish carefully said opresion in the years 1915-1919 Good night thear man ,Ps By the way There is know officialy discrimination off Tatars in Poland like the discrimination off christians and shia muslims in Turkey fizical atacs desecretion off churches and also demolising off shia mosques. which is not reare in Turkey.
@@dpwXXIPolskaPolak He never claimed there was any discrimination? Also mentioning loads of genocides irrelevant to the topic is not adding to your point.
Congratulations for this excellent and very interesting video! In a World that we often read news about conflicts between countries, it's always very good and even a relief to know that there is closeness between countries and nationalities with very distinctive culture. I am Brazilian and I've been to Poland once, in Poznan. But a Krakow, Varsow and Gdansk are in my trip wishlist! My first references on Poland were the Pope João Paulo II (Karol Wojtyła), the first President after the fall of "Iron Curtain" Lech Walesa as well the Solidarity Party, Marie Curie, a famous Scientist and Chemist in the field of Radioactivity and obviously, the Great Classic Composer Chopin! I am studying Turkish and I follow the Easy Turkish Channel. If I can travel again to Istanbul, I will sure visit this Polish Village. Thank you so much for bringing us a video full of valuable information.
Wow! I think this is one of your best videos. 👍🏾 So interesting and I would love to visit Adampol in Turkey. I am from South India and I enjoy learning about different languages and cultures and this is unique! India also had a Polish village in the past. I don’t remember the details exactly but the story goes like this group of Polish people escaped from the world wars and imprisonments in Siberia and somehow made its way to India. There was a local Indian king who hosted and gave them a small piece of land so they can form their own village with Polish school and church. Eventually this group left India for Poland after living in India for decades. I will try to find out more details if you like.
I don't speak Polish but I can hear Turkish cadence and phonetics in their Polish accent especially in words like Prostu / Adam Czartoryski / Pradziadek /Adampolu etc. (R's are closer to softer Turkish R's)
Here in The Netherlands, the Dutch want the assimilation of foreigners and their cultures while they themselves whilst abroad still hold on to their language and culture. Quite ironic.
It is the same in Germany. They cannot accept any foreign cultures besides there own and they aggressively try to assimilate people to, as the call, there "Leitkultur"="dominant culture". For sample in the most parts of Germany muslims are are not allowed to build mosques which could be recognised from the outside and the call to prayer is also not allowed.
@@beasnoil3139 Prussians and Austrians were Germans and Russia was ruled by a German Empress at the time. So practically the partitions were decided only by Germans anyway.
@@amjan actually no stop being arrogant turkey even demanded to know where polish representatives are in meetings which always got an answer they will get here soon or eventually they will come. Kurwa typie jak niewiesz to siedz cicho albo wroc do szkoly sie po ucz moze.
Legenda mówi, że Turcy, chcąc szczególnie podkreślić fakt nieuznania rozbiorów Polski, przy każdej prezentacji ambasadorów i dyplomatów na dworze sułtana powtarzali: „Poseł Lechistanu jeszcze nie przybył'' Pozdrawiam..
To nie legenda, tylko prawda. Prookół dyplomatyczny Turcji Osmańskiej (podobnie jak władze Turcji) nigdy nie uznał rozbiorów Polski i nasz ambasador, choć nieobecny, był wywoływany za każdym razem, gdy korpus dyplomatyczny wszystkich krajów miał uroczyste coroczne spotkanie (prezentację) z sułtanem . Rosjanie i Prusacy pewnie się wtedy trochę pienili :)
@@azeca0025 Mogli mówić "Lechistan", bo w Turcji Osmańskiej bardzo często używano irańskich określeń czytano perska poezję itp., traktując Iran z ogromną rewerencją, jako wyższą cywilizację.
That is true and because of this there is big respect towards turks among polish ppl who knows this history between us. My father was attaché millitar in warsaw as turkish army officer back in 2003-05. We were visiting a museum in krakow if i remember correctly and there was a collection of ottoman army belongings. A young polish couple approached to my mom and asked if she is turkish and my mom said yes after that couple said we appreciate what your nation did for us in time of need. That was an emotional moment specially for my dad and he still tells this story in our family meetings haha! great respect to poland! 🇵🇱❤🇹🇷
I’ve heard long ago there are Polish people on Polonezkoy but never been there and never heard of the story of it. Thanks for this informal vlog. As a Turk I really enjoyed to see there are different cultures living in Turkey peacefully!
Greenpoint in New York is for sure a bastion of Polishness! My aunt lives in Greenpoint and down the street from her apartment, there is a corner store that has everything you could possibly want and the people who work there speak Polish. There are Polish delis, music stores, doctors, lawyers, and so on.
@@BETOETE some Turks even muslims (people with very limited care about religion of course) eat pork aswell. For us it is not as big a deal as people from west think it is. Our culture is one of the most inclusive, respectful and tolerant culture in the world.
@@BETOETE I don't know why people think pork is such a taboo in Turkey, because it really isn't. It's not like people freak out when they see it or hear about it, not really a big deal for us.
Now you visited it with us! 😃 But if you ever have a chance to do it yourself, I'd still recommend it, it's an incredibly special place and it's definitely worth a visit 🧡
Respect to the Turks for this, help in the darkest hour. Look how Europe betrayed us after we saved Vienna. I think it would look nicer with a creseant moon afterall.
Vay beh polenezkoyün böyle bir geçmişinin olmasını hiç mi hiç beklemezdim. Neden polenezkoy dediğimizi yeni anladım. Good prepared content. Love it. Good job easy Turkish and easy polish. I really appreciate your efforts and work. I hope that you all will continue this journey of teaching people languages by catching their interest. Mesmerising.
I am very pleasantly surprised, but not completely surprised (knowing myself our troubling Polish history). I guess, the saying "Poles are found everywhere" is as true, as always :D Although the fact, that such a small and isolated village (from our nation of Poland) retains its culture and traditions so well for over 100 years only shows, how proud Polish people are of their identity and heritage.
Lovely. It shows to all those hate mongers out there that any ethnic or religious minority has the right to live their lives according to their traditions. I love how these folks have preserved their culture, religion & language whilst also retaining their loyalty to. Same is the case of Lipka Tatars in Poland & Lithuania. I hope those skeptics got their answer who always complain of Muslim & Asian minorities retention of culture & religion in West & impose bans over their customs & curb their religious rights. What the world need is harmony of this sort. May God shower blessings upon you.
But these polish people dnt behead the muslims for drawing the cartoon of the jesus. They dnt get themselves involve into terrorism or any criminal activity. They dnt pray on roads blocking the traffic in Istanbul
@@umar7182If you model an entire community as hate mongers by judging actions of few narrow-minded individuals, then you aren't better than them either.
Not only poles ! There are Germans as well living in eastern Turkey with similar story! But their numbers were less. They were prisoners of Russian Empire which was fought in 18 hundreds in a battle near Estonia. Back then Russia does not want to keep them in eastern Europe and takes them to eastern Russia to Caucasia.After the war Russia did not want to liberate them .Because they may join back to German army again.. they instead handed over to Ottoman Empire. Ottoman Empire also gave them lands in Kars, the most eastern city of Turkey.
this is so intresting video, as a turk, I wish these polish people there the best and hopefully they are happy to live there. It's nice to know about the friendship over 600 years between polish and turks. even if 2 different countries with 2 different religions and different languages can do it, why other countries can't do it?
But how many Polish or polish speaking peoples Kaschubians Podlasiens as i so and think,there where few thousend and most retourned to Poland Omly around 100 remained,
And we love Turkish people. Why? In the Polish collective memory Ottoman Turkey is remembered as the only state that did not recognize the final partition of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in 1795 by Russia, Prussia and Austria. There even exists an anecdote recounting the exchange between the chef de protocol and his aide, which is still often repeated in Poland. According to the tale, whenever the diplomatic corps was received by the Ottoman sultan, on the sight of the empty chair of the Polish deputy, the Ottoman chef de protocol would ostentatiously ask: “Where is the deputy from Lehistan?”. At each occasion he would receive the same reply from his aide: ‘Your Excellency, the deputy of Lehistan could not make it because of vital impediments’ to the annoyance of the diplomats from the partitioning states.
Now Justyna, visit Tehran, Iran and go to Polish cementary, Poles were given a refuge during IIWW. I think this story also deserves to be told. Thanks.
My Kurdish Iranian ex girlfriend is from Hamadan (Ectabana) where the soldiers of 2nd Polish Corpus bought Wojtek. I also know about the Polish Cemetery. I'm quite taken by Persian culture, especially pre-Islamic. Other Poles outside Poland should be ashamed how they speak in their native language, the people from Adampol even being fifth generation speak more fluently without using non native words, that includes myself 😕. Kids of my friends don't even speak Polish at all, something strange since both parents speak Polish at home.
4:30 that guy is not telling the truth entirely, and i think because of hes ego. The Polish prince only could buy or rent land in Istanbul because of the permision of the sultan, it was not and it is not Polish land. it is Turkish land. I can buy a house in America with ground, but its stil America's property. i cant turn it in to new Turkiye
thath guy is not telling te whole truth entirely because probably he is as many presume is not enterly Polish probably he is either Kashubian or from Podlasie so he is not representative off all Poles and off even off all Poles who lived once there in thath village..Maybe isa Germanspeaking origin person so that is why he is like thath from eastern Poland woman he i stelling halve truths. First in xix century Poland was divided between by Russia,Prussia and Germany =Austria so by the way/Second thing unfortunatly between end of xvi centtury and begining off xviii century the relations between Poland -Lithuania ad Turkey wher not good but improved in half off xviii century.Third Thank you,Tassekurer.
I think it' s possible to show the Polish school in Paris ( the first of it's kind in the world) which celebrated recently 150 of existence (Polska szkola w Batignolles) if you want to focus on the education during historic times
I am also amazed how well they speak, unbelievingly well for a 4+ generation. Też jestem w szoku jaką mają dobrą wymowę w czwartym czy piątym pokoleniu.
As a Turk, it fills me with pride to see how Turks deal over time with foreign cultures in their own country. While in Germany Turks who have been living for generations continue to be treated like invaders, we Turks love our diversity. Continuing the Ottoman tradition, the Turks were very tolerant towards religion, race, traditions. Poland and Turkey are two allied states that are now distant but were once neighbouring countries. They are united by a friendship that is unique in the world, which is based on strong historical foundations and has lasted for centuries. The Ottoman Empire was the only country that did not accept the partitions of Poland (1795-1918). During the 123 years of Poland's partition, a vacant chair was always provided for the Polish envoy at the Sultan's Court. Even in the Gallipoli War, Poland had sent fighter pilots to assist the Ottomans. Poland recognised the Turkish Republic on 1923, the day before the signing of the Lausanne Peace Treaty, thus expressing this extraordinary historical friendship.
Their vocabulary is interesting. Instead of 'najpierw' they say 'wpierw' and instead of 'uchodźcy' they say 'uciekinierzy'. They also call the ottomans "Ottomany" instead of "Osmani"
I also found it fascinating while preparing the subtitles that they speak Polish extremely well, but sometimes they use completely different vocabulary or constructions than people that we interview in Poland! J.
Yes, they use old construction of Polish. When they talk between each other there often used some Turkish words but these word have Polish endings (są spolszczone). "Wpierw" to dialect from Poland, for example my grandparents used that word.
I downloaded book in PDF about, carpentry from 1800's. Polish used in the past is a bit different than what I learned in school. It would be expected from someone who left native country centuries ago to use older form but still understandable by current speaker. Quebec French is similar example. Polish in Chicago, NY, or other city in N. America has its dialect that would be different from Polish spoken in Scotland. Edit: the book is Przewodnik dla stolarzy by Jan Heurich, 1862. Other than different vocabulary, that would be similar to the one used by the exiles, the book has very valuable informations about woodworking and technology used back then - still extremely useful today.
Ottoman means "Osman" in Turkish or more acurately the word "Osman" in Turkish changes to English as "Ottoman". So Ottoman=Osman. Reading of word of Ottomany in English is the same as Reading of word Osmani in Turkish.(if we consider that Ottoman is Osman)The word Murat is same in Both English and Turkish. Because it is a Special Name. İt doesn't change. I realy wonder who is the genius that translates Osman as Ottoman.
That's a very interesting story. I know Ukrainian and i could understand a lot of what they said in Polish. It's so nice to see a part of the East European culture inside Istanbul! bardzo dziękuję!
Unfortunetly between end of xvi centtury and begining off xviii century the relations between Poland -Lithuania ad Turkey wher not good but improved in half off xviii century.Thank you,Tassekurer.

As a Turk, we try to run away from Turkey but Europeans try to move to Turkey , why ? :D This is Hilarious , that's why we should make a deal and change places with each other :D
Hello! As you wish, as a native I'll comment on their speech. They definitely speak different from Poles living in Poland. They use many words that we consider archaic- we'd only see them in old books. If you want examples of those old words- "wpierw (I'd say najpierw)" "karczować (I didn't even know what it means until I read the English subtitles haha)" "Sybirii (Syberii) etc. The woman also said something like "Jestem z domu Ryżych". It's certainly an very old expression. I think that is because they came to Turkey in 19th century so they kinda speak like people used it 19th century. They also pronounce 'cz' and 'sz' slightly different, but I know people who pronounce it worse so it doesn't matter I think.
@@shion3948 not true - that older man spoke very fluent and rich, native Polish language. Better than many Polish politicians, especially from PiS :)The woman spoke worser, like the foreigner speaking good Polish, with a little bit strange accent and some basic grammar or lexical mistakes. Shion, you did not read too many books, huh? "Karczować", is the normal word, also today.

Thank you for taking me there, Easy Turkish! This was a truly unique experience and this video would have never happened if it wasn't for you! 🧡 Come to visit us in Poland, we can try to see if there are any Turkish communities here! 😃
To niesamowite, że Polacy w Turcji w czwartym pokoleniu tak pięknie mówią po Polsku, a tymczasem w przypadku niedawnych emigrantów do USA czy UK z lat 1980-2000 często już drugie pokolenie traci język ojczysty. // Incredible how the fourth generation of Poles in Turkey speaks perfect Polish while the recent emigrants (1980-2000) to the States or UK often lose their mother tongue in the second generation.
Dla mnie mowia po Polsku lepiej niz wielu Polakow ktorzy wyjechali z kraju. Gdybys czasem posluchala rozmowy w Chicago to czasem mozna sie posikac ze smiechu, choc sam nie jestem bez grzechu i czesto latwiej wtracic angielskie okreslenie zamiast polskiego.
That is called freedom of choice given by Turkey . Diversity is richness . Pa czesc :)
Znam osobiście takie rodziny w których dzieci wyjechały z Polski w wieku 4/5 lat i bardzo słabo mówią po polsku. Często jest też tak, że jak Polak urodzi się za granicą to nie mówi wcale lub kiepsko, mimo , że dla rodziców to pierwszy jeżyk. Choć zdarza się też, że rodzice nawet nie chcą uczyć tego języka, albo z niechęci do narodu albo twierdzą, że im nie będzie przydatny i lepiej żeby znali język kraju w którym mieszkają. Dwujęzyczność według mnie to najlepsza rzecz dla dziecka.
Because europeans want people to assimilate not integate. and that comes from fascism,. in turkey we dont know that, thats why everyone is free to keep its identity. there is no public pressure to make you feel accepted only if you become like a turk.
@@oghuzkhan5117 I think you misunderstand some things. People from Poland who travel to Western Europe or US tend to be ashamed or at least try to hide their identity. Sometimes this comes from external sources (i.e. People from Poland are seen as worse, inferior), but many times it is because we think we will be seen as worse etc. Not to mention we tend to be ashamed of what our governments do, so we try to hide. When I was in Italy with my mother - she used to tell me to pretend I'm British - due to my knowledge of English. Because she thought we would be seen as worse. Even though we were guests of her sister (my Aunt from Poland) and her husband (my Uncle from Italy). BTW my Uncle learned Polish just as my Aunt learned Italian. Their daughter - my beloved cousin - speaks both. She currently teaches Italian in Poland.
That is a far cry - and partially opposite to fascism, which tried to weed out even those who were assimilated by making a difference between people of pure blood and those who weren't "pure" for at least 4 generations. People too easily use the word Fascism to describe any idea that they don't think is correct. And unfortunately in this case this is a good example of how not to use word: "fascism" (especially since I assume, you've meant it to cover both Nazism and Fascism).

There is a Polish community in Haiti. Casales is the town. Napoleon brought a Polish army to Haiti, they defected and joined the Haitians during the revolution and the first Haitian constitution grants Poles Haitian citizenship. Plenty of videos about it on UA-cam.
You stumbled on an absolute jewel and presented it so sensitively.
We're so glad you liked it! 😊
Turkey is a great example of a civilised nation. It does not force minorities to give up their identity and dictate they must assimiliate. France and Germanic countries can learn from Turkey.

Thank you Sara good sade.
@@joul-qi6mr yes you see it too.
Youre totally right, look at England and France colonies for example, they all speak English and French. While old Turkish territories are still using their own language and keeping their cultures. Such as Balkans, Middle East and North African territories.

Wow, that is a very interesting history.
Benim Türkiye'de kültür araştırma yapmamın sebebiydi. Bir toprakta çeşit çeşit milletlerin henüz asimilasyon olmadan kendi kültürün yaşanabilmenin nedeni ne olduğunu çok merak ettim. Mesela, benim anavatanım Kore, aslında tek millet devleti değildir, bizimkilerde birçok yabancı kökeni vardır. Fakat şu an herkes kendilerini Koreli olduğunu zannedip, Kore kültürünü yaşıyorlar. Demek ki, Türkiye'de Kore kadar toplumsal baskı yoktur. "Koreliler böyle olmalı, Kore'de yaşayanlar böyle yaşamalı" falan yani... Sadece Polonezköy değil, Bursa'da mıydı tam hatırlamıyorum da, hâlâ Boşnakça konuşulan köyün olduğunu gördüm. Iğdır tarafındaysa Azeriler yaşıyorlar, ve güneydoğudaki Mardin'de yaşayan Süryaniler, Araplar....... Türkiye gerçekten mozaik bir toplumdur ve bu nedenle zengin kültür gücüne sahip olduğunu düşünüyorum.
It was the reason why I choose to start cultural research in Turkey. I was very curious about the reason why various nations could live their own culture in a land without assimilation yet. For example, my homeland, Korea is not actually a single nation state, We have many foreign origins. But now everyone thinks they are Korean themselves and they live Korean culture. It means, there is no social pressure in Turkey as much as Korea. I mean, "Koreans should be like this, people living in Korea should live like this" etc... Not only in Polonezköy, but I don't remember if it was in Bursa, but I saw that there was still a Bosnian-speaking village. Azeris live on the side of Iğdır, and Assyrians, Arabs living in Mardin in the southeast province.... Turkey is a truly mosaic society and I think it has rich cultural power for that reason.
Çalışmalarının devamını dilerim abicim
Evet, ben Bursa'da yaşıyorum ve bahsettiğiniz gibi buradaki bir köyde sadece Boşnakça konuşuluyor.
Bunun sebebi osmanlı devleti'dir. Çünkü osmanlı'da İslam yaşanıyordu ve tüm toplumlar birbiriyle kardeşçe yaşıyordu bu durum aynı zamanda Anadolu müslümanının yapısı ile ilgili çünkü Anadolu Müslümanı çok iyi insanlardır islam'ı ve osmanlı yı araştırma nı tavsiye ederim. Eğer istersen ben sana anlatırım.
Bir hatanızı düzelteyim. Azeriler türktür. Aynı soydanız. Tatarlar kıpçak türküdür mesela. Bunlar boy adı sadece. Daha iyisi olabilir aslında. Türkiyede dillerin yok olması beni üzüyor. Demokrasiyi geliştirmek elimizde sonuçta. Türk halkının temeli Hititlerdir. Sonra Roma, Selçuklu, Osmanlı. Büyük imparatorluklar o doğal.Katman gibi kaynaşa kaynaşa Türk halkı doğdu.
Araştırmalarınızda başarılar dilerim.Türkler kendileri de değişik dinlerde olmuş ve çok değişik coğrafyalarda yaşamış ve yaşamaktadırlar.Kimsenin diline ,dinine karışmamışlardır.Prof Dimitri Kitsikis " Biz Yunanlılar ,Türklerden özür dilemeli ve teşekkür etmeliyiz.Yüzyıllarca bizim dilimizi,dinimizi korudular.1821 ve 1919 da İngiliz ihaneti ile hata yaptık.Acilen Yunanistan,Türkiye ile birleşmelidir" diyor.Uluslararası Lozan antlaşmasının 59.maddesine rağmen 2.dünya savaşı sırasında Ege kıyılarımıza dolan Yunanlıları alıp aylarca besledik,kamplara yerleştirdik.Türkiye de karne ile verilen buğday,gaz yağı,tekstil ürünleri,un,şeker ,ilaç ,aşı vs yi haftada 2 defa Kurtuluş gemisi ile Atina ya gönderdik.Mikis Teodarakis " Gözlerimiz ufukta KURTULUŞ'u gözler,görünce sevinir,birbirimize sarılırdık" demişti. Kurtuluş gemisi battı.Ama Aksu ve diğer gemiler ile göndermeye devam ettik.Şimdiki Başbakanları " Babamı 1967 cuntasından Türkler kaçırıp kurtardı.İstanbul da bir ay misafir ettiler" demişti.

"we were integrated but not assimilated." this sentence is precious to me as a turk. it was the same way towards also other ethnicities but unfortunately they are taught differently.
non-Muslim minorities were not assimilated which is why the people in the video are still speaking their language and are Christians. Muslim Greeks, Laz people, Circassians, Albanians etc were assimilated. They see themselves as turks nowadays and don't speak their languages and don't live out their true culture. This all happened after 1923.
@@lunarspirit4934 Bullshit. Kurds are muslim and still there are kurds who don't know a single word of Turkish. Don't teach our country to us please, wherever you are from. It is not about religion, especially if you are living in Istanbul. People from a million different religious groups live here.
@@aytacdenizacar7703 I am a Greek from Turkey so maybe YOU should not try to whitewash the policy of the Cumhuriyet mentality to me. My family in Izmir doesn't know a single word in Greek. Just because some Kurdish farmers dont know Turkish doesn't mean no minority is uprooted in Turkey
@@lunarspirit4934 With all my respect. i did not say everything went perfectly for all minorities. I just said there is no integration problem based on your religion, and i mean YOUR religion. There is more intolerance towards Alevi-Baktashi minorities and great majority of them have the purest Turkish genes here. Your main problem is you want to live in Greece inside the borders of Turkish Republic and you are also salty because an orphan from Thessaloniki kicked your asses so bad and you are not able to change the history. Next time, study your mother tongue first before English. It is your responsibility, you cannot expect that from Turkish government.

I love visiting Poland and love visiting Turkey. Amazing story, very interesting!
Niesamowite, że nadal tak pięknie mówią po polsku!
Thank you for the subtitles in English 🙏 This was fascinating - thank you for sharing!
I live in Canada. In 2016 there were over 1 million Polish Canadians in Canada. Where I live in Ontario we have Polish preschool, Polish elementary school which is held on Saturdays for 2 hours and Polish high school on Wednesdays for 3 hours. There is also a Polish deli and market, townhouse called Polonia Park, a church, the Ursuline sister's house, a Polish club called Dom Polski, a Youth group, and in the summer there is a Polish carousel of nations with Polish folk dancing, Polish food like pierogi, pączki, and some booths to buy some clothes with Polish eagle or some jewelry.
The Holy Trinity Roman Catholic Parish in Windsor was built in 1918. The first priest for the church I think came from Poland. The Polish school established in 1925.
Same here in Detroit. There is a large Polish culture
thanks for the video..its great to see a Polish village in Turkey thriving, has kept the Polish language and culture alive, as a Turk I felt happy for that..I thought most of them went back to Poland, we don't wish them go back as they are part of our society..sadly the Turks ''Tatars'' of Poland couldn't keep their language, ofcourse we blame no one for it as the conditions probably compelled them for, but they're still nominally muslims..we hope Turkish - Polish friendship continue positively for ever..
So bad and sad that the Armenians christian Syrians Chaldeans and mmuslims and christians from Lebanon and even from Persia where subject off Turkish carefully said opresion in the years 1915-1919 Good night thear man ,Ps By the way There is know officialy discrimination off Tatars in Poland like the discrimination off christians and shia muslims in Turkey fizical atacs desecretion off churches and also demolising off shia mosques. which is not reare in Turkey.
@Serious Damage! the Karaims do speak a Crimean Tatar dialect but as far as I know muslim Tatars have completely switched to Polish.
@@dpwXXIPolskaPolak What?
@@dpwXXIPolskaPolak He never claimed there was any discrimination? Also mentioning loads of genocides irrelevant to the topic is not adding to your point.

Ok now this is pretty weird

Congratulations for this excellent and very interesting video! In a World that we often read news about conflicts between countries, it's always very good and even a relief to know that there is closeness between countries and nationalities with very distinctive culture. I am Brazilian and I've been to Poland once, in Poznan. But a Krakow, Varsow and Gdansk are in my trip wishlist! My first references on Poland were the Pope João Paulo II (Karol Wojtyła), the first President after the fall of "Iron Curtain" Lech Walesa as well the Solidarity Party, Marie Curie, a famous Scientist and Chemist in the field of Radioactivity and obviously, the Great Classic Composer Chopin! I am studying Turkish and I follow the Easy Turkish Channel. If I can travel again to Istanbul, I will sure visit this Polish Village. Thank you so much for bringing us a video full of valuable information.
Amazing!
Wow! I think this is one of your best videos. 👍🏾 So interesting and I would love to visit Adampol in Turkey. I am from South India and I enjoy learning about different languages and cultures and this is unique! India also had a Polish village in the past. I don’t remember the details exactly but the story goes like this group of Polish people escaped from the world wars and imprisonments in Siberia and somehow made its way to India. There was a local Indian king who hosted and gave them a small piece of land so they can form their own village with Polish school and church. Eventually this group left India for Poland after living in India for decades. I will try to find out more details if you like.
as a refugee?
Emre Ks Yes most of them were war refugees and also those who escaped from Siberian prison.
Wow, that's a super interesting story! 😮 Is there any place on the internet that you would recommend where we could read more about this?

Here in The Netherlands, the Dutch want the assimilation of foreigners and their cultures while they themselves whilst abroad still hold on to their language and culture. Quite ironic.
It is the same in Germany. They cannot accept any foreign cultures besides there own and they aggressively try to assimilate people to, as the call, there "Leitkultur"="dominant culture".
For sample in the most parts of Germany muslims are are not allowed to build mosques which could be recognised from the outside and the call to prayer is also not allowed.
Zdravo Bosnijan Brat we Turks see whole of the Balkans as siblings , friends
Nice little story. Pity Turkey never treated its other Christian communities as well
@Buket And the Dutch are racist, eh? Do a search of the Istanbul pogroms on UA-cam. Not flattering.

Wow. This reminds me of the episode from “More Than Life At Stake” when Hans went to Turkey and spoke Polish!
Poland: You were one of the few that didn't recognize Germany annexing me... Why?
Turkey: Because that's what heroes do....
Germany? oh not Germany...Prussia, Russia, Austria, know these countries? partitions? anything?
@@beasnoil3139 Prussians and Austrians were Germans and Russia was ruled by a German Empress at the time. So practically the partitions were decided only by Germans anyway.
No. That's incorrect. Turkey only did it to spite Russia. They didn't care about Poland.
@@amjan actually no stop being arrogant turkey even demanded to know where polish representatives are in meetings which always got an answer they will get here soon or eventually they will come. Kurwa typie jak niewiesz to siedz cicho albo wroc do szkoly sie po ucz moze.

Legenda mówi, że Turcy, chcąc szczególnie podkreślić fakt nieuznania rozbiorów Polski, przy każdej prezentacji ambasadorów i dyplomatów na dworze sułtana powtarzali: „Poseł Lechistanu jeszcze nie przybył'' Pozdrawiam..
Polska nazywa sie Polonya po Turecku. Po Iransku Lechistan.
To nie legenda, tylko prawda. Prookół dyplomatyczny Turcji Osmańskiej (podobnie jak władze Turcji) nigdy nie uznał rozbiorów Polski i nasz ambasador, choć nieobecny, był wywoływany za każdym razem, gdy korpus dyplomatyczny wszystkich krajów miał uroczyste coroczne spotkanie (prezentację) z sułtanem . Rosjanie i Prusacy pewnie się wtedy trochę pienili :)
@@azeca0025 Mogli mówić "Lechistan", bo w Turcji Osmańskiej bardzo często używano irańskich określeń czytano perska poezję itp., traktując Iran z ogromną rewerencją, jako wyższą cywilizację.
To nie legenda lecz fakt. Turcja zawsze szanowała Polskę I Polaków, aczkolwiek często byliśmy w stanie wojny.
That is true and because of this there is big respect towards turks among polish ppl who knows this history between us. My father was attaché millitar in warsaw as turkish army officer back in 2003-05. We were visiting a museum in krakow if i remember correctly and there was a collection of ottoman army belongings. A young polish couple approached to my mom and asked if she is turkish and my mom said yes after that couple said we appreciate what your nation did for us in time of need. That was an emotional moment specially for my dad and he still tells this story in our family meetings haha! great respect to poland! 🇵🇱❤🇹🇷
I’ve heard long ago there are Polish people on Polonezkoy but never been there and never heard of the story of it.
Thanks for this informal vlog. As a Turk I really enjoyed to see there are different cultures living in Turkey peacefully!
Greenpoint in New York is for sure a bastion of Polishness! My aunt lives in Greenpoint and down the street from her apartment, there is a corner store that has everything you could possibly want and the people who work there speak Polish. There are Polish delis, music stores, doctors, lawyers, and so on.
This was fascinating! Plus, lovely learning material.

Now you visited it with us! 😃 But if you ever have a chance to do it yourself, I'd still recommend it, it's an incredibly special place and it's definitely worth a visit 🧡
Come to Polonezköy, stop by Gospoda 1882 and try some Polish food.
Respect to the Turks for this, help in the darkest hour. Look how Europe betrayed us after we saved Vienna. I think it would look nicer with a creseant moon afterall.

I am very pleasantly surprised, but not completely surprised (knowing myself our troubling Polish history). I guess, the saying "Poles are found everywhere" is as true, as always :D
Although the fact, that such a small and isolated village (from our nation of Poland) retains its culture and traditions so well for over 100 years only shows, how proud Polish people are of their identity and heritage.
Lovely. It shows to all those hate mongers out there that any ethnic or religious minority has the right to live their lives according to their traditions. I love how these folks have preserved their culture, religion & language whilst also retaining their loyalty to. Same is the case of Lipka Tatars in Poland & Lithuania. I hope those skeptics got their answer who always complain of Muslim & Asian minorities retention of culture & religion in West & impose bans over their customs & curb their religious rights. What the world need is harmony of this sort. May God shower blessings upon you.

@@alh6255 Agreed but not only IS but all religious fanatics, as what they're committing is contradictory what religious doctrine preaches.

Not only poles ! There are Germans as well living in eastern Turkey with similar story! But their numbers were less. They were prisoners of Russian Empire which was fought in 18 hundreds in a battle near Estonia. Back then Russia does not want to keep them in eastern Europe and takes them to eastern Russia to Caucasia.After the war Russia did not want to liberate them .Because they may join back to German army again.. they instead handed over to Ottoman Empire. Ottoman Empire also gave them lands in Kars, the most eastern city of Turkey.
yes, I heard that in a very cold city, around Konya, reaching the Caucasus Mt.
Why did you write "poles" with lowercase letter, while "Germans" you wrote with uppercase??? This is unrespectful for Poles!

this is so intresting video, as a turk, I wish these polish people there the best and hopefully they are happy to live there. It's nice to know about the friendship over 600 years between polish and turks. even if 2 different countries with 2 different religions and different languages can do it, why other countries can't do it?
But how many Polish or polish speaking peoples Kaschubians Podlasiens as i so and think,there where few thousend and most retourned to Poland Omly around 100 remained,
I've been to Adampol years ago; such a lovely place, such lovely people ❤️
I love the name of it like “Polonezköy”
Thanks for the video.
I recognized "powstanie" from Prague. There's a station Pražského Povstání there. (The final vowel in -ania got absorbed into the i in Czech.)
I went to Polonezköy once. One of the most beautiful places in İstanbul.
We like polish people.
And we love Turkish people. Why? In the Polish collective memory Ottoman Turkey is remembered as the only state that did not recognize the final partition of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in 1795 by Russia, Prussia and Austria. There even exists an anecdote recounting the exchange between the chef de protocol and his aide, which is still often repeated in Poland. According to the tale, whenever the diplomatic corps was received by the Ottoman sultan, on the sight of the empty chair of the Polish deputy, the Ottoman chef de protocol would ostentatiously ask: “Where is the deputy from Lehistan?”. At each occasion he would receive the same reply from his aide: ‘Your Excellency, the deputy of Lehistan could not make it because of vital impediments’ to the annoyance of the diplomats from the partitioning states.

Wow, great video! I can’t believe how fourth and fifth generation Poles still speak Polish, I’m second generation and can’t even speak as well as them
you need to see that i think if you are polish because Polish nation is nationalist
I am also amazed how well they speak, unbelievingly well for a 4+ generation.
Też jestem w szoku jaką mają dobrą wymowę w czwartym czy piątym pokoleniu.

@Paolo Renga ??? They live on their lands tho lmao
Thank you
As a Turk, it fills me with pride to see how Turks deal over time with foreign cultures in their own country. While in Germany Turks who have been living for generations continue to be treated like invaders, we Turks love our diversity. Continuing the Ottoman tradition, the Turks were very tolerant towards religion, race, traditions. Poland and Turkey are two allied states that are now distant but were once neighbouring countries. They are united by a friendship that is unique in the world, which is based on strong historical foundations and has lasted for centuries. The Ottoman Empire was the only country that did not accept the partitions of Poland (1795-1918). During the 123 years of Poland's partition, a vacant chair was always provided for the Polish envoy at the Sultan's Court. Even in the Gallipoli War, Poland had sent fighter pilots to assist the Ottomans. Poland recognised the Turkish Republic on 1923, the day before the signing of the Lausanne Peace Treaty, thus expressing this extraordinary historical friendship.
Turks dont get treated like invaders in germany
Their vocabulary is interesting. Instead of 'najpierw' they say 'wpierw' and instead of 'uchodźcy' they say 'uciekinierzy'. They also call the ottomans "Ottomany" instead of "Osmani"
I also found it fascinating while preparing the subtitles that they speak Polish extremely well, but sometimes they use completely different vocabulary or constructions than people that we interview in Poland!
J.
Yes, they use old construction of Polish. When they talk between each other there often used some Turkish words but these word have Polish endings (są spolszczone). "Wpierw" to dialect from Poland, for example my grandparents used that word.
I downloaded book in PDF about, carpentry from 1800's. Polish used in the past is a bit different than what I learned in school. It would be expected from someone who left native country centuries ago to use older form but still understandable by current speaker.
Quebec French is similar example. Polish in Chicago, NY, or other city in N. America has its dialect that would be different from Polish spoken in Scotland.
Edit: the book is Przewodnik dla stolarzy by Jan Heurich, 1862. Other than different vocabulary, that would be similar to the one used by the exiles, the book has very valuable informations about woodworking and technology used back then - still extremely useful today.
Its probably like how french canadian is different from french in france
Ottoman means "Osman" in Turkish or more acurately the word "Osman" in Turkish changes to English as "Ottoman". So Ottoman=Osman. Reading of word of Ottomany in English is the same as Reading of word Osmani in Turkish.(if we consider that Ottoman is Osman)The word Murat is same in Both English and Turkish. Because it is a Special Name. İt doesn't change. I realy wonder who is the genius that translates Osman as Ottoman.
That's a very interesting story. I know Ukrainian and i could understand a lot of what they said in Polish.
It's so nice to see a part of the East European culture inside Istanbul! bardzo dziękuję!
Not Eastern, it's Central Europe.
Istanbul already in the part of eastern europe.

Unfortunetly between end of xvi centtury and begining off xviii century the relations between Poland -Lithuania ad Turkey wher not good but improved in half off xviii century.Thank you,Tassekurer.
To be fair it started to warn up after the Partitioning by the 3 great power.
Poles helped the Haitians fight for their freedom as well.
Turkey = cat heaven?!
İstanbul definitely is, but not the whole country I would say
I keep saying that Easy Turkish should make a video about the cats of Istanbul! 😃 It's fascinating how many of them are there and every person that I met there had at least one funny story to share about a cat from their neighbourhood 🐱

@@begumgunes9469 Sounds like words of someone who never left Istanbul to see other cities in Turkey and have no clue about it. It's pretty much same all over the country, so please get proper information about it before spreading wrong information.
@@begumgunes9469 Well you're misinformed or you never leave İstanbul. Because if you did, you would know cats and dogs are everywhere in Turkey, not just İstanbul. And the numbers wouldn't really be that different i can assure you. I've visited İstanbul several times and i live in İzmir. Bir gün başka şehirlere de gidersen görebilirsin ne kadar kedimiz ve köpeğimiz olduğunu. İstanbul'a özel bir şey değil yani.

Arkaya saçma fon müzikleri koymaktan bir vazgeçmediler şu yabancılar.
Wauw interesting :D
Speaking polish in Turkey. WOW!!! They should try more to conserve their culture and heritage in Adampol.
istanbul is in the Europe not in the middle of the turkey
Oj, boszzz, o Polonezkoy to już trzydzieści lat temu się mówiło. Żadna ciekawostka teraz.

@Zainul Abidin The population is around 385 people right now and 90-100 of them have Polish heritage! The village itself is kind of a tourist destination nowadays.
in xix century Poland was divided between by Russia,Prussia and Germany =Austria so by the way/
I love polishes. They are not like russians they are super people believe me

@@Snestorm564 there were a lot of refugees in Poland, during the last 70 years, especially from Yugoslavia, Chechnya (in1990s) and after the WW2 i- from Greece (20 000) . But not too much from the last Angela case. In 2015 some of "refugee" families (Syrians), got flats and money in Poland, but left that and escaped to richer Germany., with no saying even thank you :)
As a Turk, we try to run away from Turkey but Europeans try to move to Turkey , why ? :D This is Hilarious , that's why we should make a deal and change places with each other :D
Lol

"Ch/sh" these sounds totally can be polish language 😁
Hello what could you tell about their dialect / accent? Any comments? I am curious if any native Polish could write. Thanks in advance.
Hello! As you wish, as a native I'll comment on their speech. They definitely speak different from Poles living in Poland. They use many words that we consider archaic- we'd only see them in old books. If you want examples of those old words- "wpierw (I'd say najpierw)" "karczować (I didn't even know what it means until I read the English subtitles haha)" "Sybirii (Syberii) etc. The woman also said something like "Jestem z domu Ryżych". It's certainly an very old expression. I think that is because they came to Turkey in 19th century so they kinda speak like people used it 19th century. They also pronounce 'cz' and 'sz' slightly different, but I know people who pronounce it worse so it doesn't matter I think.
And if it comes to the accent they speak like my grandfathers (for example pronouncing 'i' or 'e' as 'y') so it's not very weird
@@shion3948 not true - that older man spoke very fluent and rich, native Polish language. Better than many Polish politicians, especially from PiS :)The woman spoke worser, like the foreigner speaking good Polish, with a little bit strange accent and some basic grammar or lexical mistakes. Shion, you did not read too many books, huh? "Karczować", is the normal word, also today.
