    We have a funny phrase with Germans in it. "Niemiec płakał jak sprzedawał" = "The German was weeping when he was selling it" meaning a second-hand product is of a very good quality.

      Uhh no, this is totally not what it means. It is a meme, mocking unfair car dealers. I'd say the exact opposite, it means the car is of a shitty quality and the dealer want's to convince you in the most stupid way. Ofc there is a slight subtext of German things being high quality, but again it refers to stupid dealer's argumentation.

      @@niktniewiem4785 I did say it's a funny phrase. No one really believes in the weeping German owner just as no one believes people have a circus. But the underlying meaning is that a German owner loved the car (or something else) so much that he took extra care of it and he hated the thought of parting with it when the time came. And that's all I meant. Funny phrases are hardly ever used literally.

The meme is funny not because there actually is any german who took good care of the car, but because in our country there are a lot of unfair car dealers who will tell you every stupid, unreal argument to sell you a crappy imported car, which probably has tons of hidden flaws. It is a well known practice among people who are interested in cars, and the meme is mocking this.

It's some remnance of the Communist propaganda trying to make everyone believe that everyone east of Poland was Russian. "Ruski rok" means "Ruthenian year", not Russian which would be "rosyjski", and it's about the Julian calendar making some events happen rarer. Note that in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth half of the people were Polish Catholic while the other largest group where Ruthenian Orthodox, so people were aware of both calendars all the time.

    Your pronunciation of Polish words is surprisingly good.
    Some additional hints:
    Ł/ł - invariably the equivalent of W/w as in English wood ) -- in Donald Knuth's TeXbook ł is called the Polish suppressed l
    J/j - invariably the equivalent of Y/y as in yes (this letter was only added to the Polish alphabet in the 19th century)
    C/c - to be pronounced as tz in the surname Horowitz; never k.
    ch - in Polish there is a voiced h and its voiceless variety, which we note as ch. Never pronounce it like the ch in chocolate
    cz = ch in chocolate
    sz = sh in fish
    ę = the nasal e (in Latin there is also an ę, e caudata, but this is only equivalent to the ligature ae.); ę should be pronounced like en in the French bien.
    ą - the nasal o!!! In the Polish alphabet of the 16th century, ą was noted correctly as a crossed-out o (such as we find in Scandinavian alphabets today). It should be pronounced like on in the French bonjour.
    As for the origin of the curse word kurwa, in bygone centuries street prostitutes used to catch clients on street corners, on "via curva" (latin).

    any way your pronunciation is pretty good, one thing about "ł / Ł" letter it's not L; from english it would sound like "w" ( i.e. Wood) and "W" in polish is pronounced as "V" sound (i.e Vodka)

    When pronouncing "ł" in Polish, it's similar sound as "w" in the English word "a window". And when You give some examples of similar expressions or sayings existing in German, You could actually say it also in Your language (not only an English translation). I think that many of Your viewers know some German, so maybe we can also learn something new (like similar German proverbs).

    Słowo na k (o którym moje dzieci mówią "kura bez w"), to jedno z najstarszych polskich słów. Niezmienne od przynajmniej XVI wieku. Gdy szlachcic zabił innego szlachcica, to wg kodeksów z mniej więcej tamtych czasów, musiał zapłacić 65 czegoś tam (nie pamiętam, chyba groszy...). Jeśli nazwał drugiego szlachcica "tyś k... synem" - też płacił 65 :) Inaczej mówiąc, to słowo było jak zabójstwo. Dzisiaj używane przez wielu jako "przecinek". Generalnie słownictwo w Polsce zrobiło się ostatnio mocno wulgarne. Politycy dawnej opozycji używali tego słowa publicznie a sądy ich uniewinniały i nikt nie płacił 65 czy nawet 1 (grosza)...

    "Nie ucz ojca dzieci robić" is used sometimes when child trying teach parents about something. As reference to child's birth, it suggest that they have much more knowledge of topic than it seems.
    "Gdzie psy dupami szczekają", similar "Where the devil says goodnight". Fankly i don't know for sure, but it is little derisively for places far from cities, where local odd superstition, long forgotten, are still actual.

    I have a little notebook with all the Polish phrases that are impossible to translate (I'm bilingual so I have to translate very often in different situations) and one of my favorites is "gdzie lezy pies pogrzebany", that means "where the dead dog lies" and it means "that's the point, this is the clue of the the problem". But there are a lot of funny expressions like "co ma piernik do wiatraka" (what has in common a gingerbresd to a windmill) when you want to point out that someone is changing the topic of a discussion. In this case in Italy we say "rigirare la frittata" that means "to turn upsid down a frittata", the meaning is the same, to change the topic of a discussion.

    3. You got it
    4. Roll with butter -> Piece of cake
    5. Useless favour, or favour making more damages
    6. "Den Teufel nicht an die Wand malen"
    7. You got it exactly (not my business, not my problem)
    8. "einmal im blauen Mond"
    9. Bigos as made of "anything" is here called as synonym of chaos

    I might be wrong about it, but the first saying "Gdzie psy dupami szczekają" or "When the dogs bark by their asses" might come from the thing that not so many years ago there was still lots of villages (especially after the war) in the Poland, many of which didn't have electicity or running water (not the case anymore, lol) and most of them had a lot of dogs (like, going into some village u can see dogs roaming around the village freely) so saying that the dogs bark by their asses emphasise the fact that even the dogs are so obselote that they don't know how to bark properly (not to mention the water and electricity, like saying that technology did not went there - even the dogs don't do the dogs' things correcly).

    (it's a bit offtopic for this particular video)
    I watched many UA-camrs from different countries whose main topic was Poland, but very few from Germany. It's a bit strange, but somewhat understandable. Germany is focused on larger countries (as well as its own hegemony). In turn, as Poles, we really look at the Germans as our main economic partner and guarantor of our (and mutual) development, so you can incredibly develop a channel that will be watched by many Poles if you discuss topics that interest us (honestly, without sugarcoating). Of course, you seem to be a very friendly person with whom many Poles would go out for a beer and become friends, but I am interested (and probably not only me):
    how Germans (average, left-wing, right-wing, your friends, etc.) look at:
    - reparations issues? I consider it a huge mistake and a long-obsolete topic, but I am curious how much this topic is discussed, how much it has angered society, etc.
    - border issues/Prussia. As far as I know, the far-right (probably ~20-40% of AfD voters) would like some reshuffle - especially after the above issue (demands for reparations).
    - issues of looking at Russia and the war in Ukraine. I think ~70% of Germans are pro-Ukraine, which I like. But I respect also the opposite view (when there are arguments). Let's be honest - Germany would benefit from cooperation with Russia, and Poland must reach an agreement with either Germany OR Russia - I prefer Germany 100x more, as do most Poles - geopolitics, history, and geography.
    - a look at NATO. I think some Germans would like to expel the Americans from Europe, which from the perspective of Germans would be profitable - you could take over some of the reins. I'm curious how common this topic is, because we look at Americans as the main guarantors of security, so we, as a society in general, probably disagree here.
    I have a ton more questions, but some basic ones to start with that concern both of our societies.
    I don't know how interested you are in politics, but the perspective of German society is very interesting to me (and not only to me) because you have much greater soft and hard power and we are quite dependent on you as a country (and you to quite a large extent from us economically).
    It's possible that you don't want to discuss such serious topics, but rather react to the videos - I will respect that ;)
    I subscribed and I'm waiting for more videos/reactions, especially historical/political ones with more commentary (even those that theoretically some of us wouldn't want to hear - let's be honest - history partly shapes reality, but I (and not only me) would like to build with your people a great future in this part of the world).
    I/we want to know what German society as a whole (and by age/political preferences, etc.) thinks about our common issues - we are neighbors after all ;) Greetings to you from Poznań/Posen (during the partitions/The German Empire)!

      Germans really hated your PIS-government, which is funny because pis means to pee in German, so there were many jokes about that. We really feared to lose another member of the EU to an rightextremist regime, like Orban in Hungary and many Germans are very glad that Tusk (Is that right?) is now your Chancelor

      I am really fearing to offend any Pole by saying, that Germans care way less about Poland then Poles do about Germany, not because we dont like them or something, but simply because we dont know much about them and they are not such a big trading partner, like G7 countries. But thats exactly why I have this channel to learn more about Poland.
      I just did some research and here is I think a pretty good grafik to my description: de.statista.com/statistik/daten/studie/227357/umfrage/wichtigste-exportlaender-fuer-polen/

      ​@@chris.poland Yep, most of us (apart from 35% of voters, or rather probably 20%, because the rest voted for the "lesser evil" according to them) also perceive the PiS government this way. I'm personally conservative-liberal, didn't vote for Tusk nor PiS but I'm happy that cooperation with Germany will increase under his rule, not decline like in the last 8 years, and hope reparations / far-right territorial issues will be ended.
      "I am really fearing to offend any Pole by saying, that Germans care way less about Poland than Poles do about Germany" - don't worry - that's totally understandable and I'm sure most Poles know this. Germany has a much larger economy and is a much more significant country in the world, we won't deceive ourselves. We're a fast-growing economy (largely thanks to cooperation with Germany but also hard work) but in the West, you have much more significant economies/partners. We're still learning and growing after years of oppression by the Soviets.
      Maybe I made it a little too political on a rather entertaining channel, so do your thing, and comment on the videos discussed, so that it won't be like most reactionary videos, i.e. blissful silence - your first 3 videos already contained a lot of them, but the more the better, and I (and not only me) will be happy to listen to your opinions / interesting facts also about Germany and about German society opinions, our common history/interests/matters ;)
      As I mentioned - there is probably no German whose content would be focused exclusively on Poland - there is a Russian (already > 200k subscribers), a few Ukrainians, Americans, a Scot, an Iranian, an Azeri, etc., so you have a lot of scope to show off and gain an audience here ;) If you keep uploading and developing the channel - 100k subscriptions are easily within reach (to start with).

    • @chris.poland
      @chris.poland  4 місяці тому +3

      I know the scott, he was the reason I started this channel because I very much enjoyed his videos about Germany and wanted to learn about different countries :) I also have a swedish channel, but the swedish community is way less interactive then the polish, so I spent 99% of the time on my polish channel :)
      I promise you if I hit 100k, I will upload a video with my grandpa born in Silesia, if he wants and still lives at that point. It will be very interesting but I fear maybe also very spicy, because he is a racist😅

    1:20 - "where dogs are barking by their asses" - this refers to a place without civilization, sooo it probably means that the village/town is so far away from the other places, that everything there is in reverse. That's why dogs bark with their asses instead of their mouths 😂

    Don't try to read Polish words with English or German pronounciation. Polish "sz" is like German "sch", "cz" is like "tsch" and "ch" is practically the same as "h". There are also digraphs: "rz" read the same as Polish "ż" or French "j", and "dż" like English "G" in "Germany" and similar "dz" and "dź" not represented in English or German. You can watch some videos about Polish alphabet, they would be helpful if you want to read Polish and learn some basic phrases 😉
