Have any of you who have visited our US Polonia run into anyone who spoke in this or some similar manner? Encounter any especially interesting or unusual turns of phrase?Naturally the volume of Polonia-isms varies from speaker to speaker.

I've come across "Kakrocie biegają po garbedziu", although I can't tell whether it was sb saying this for real or a joke.

Sounds kind of far-fatched. Perfectly understandable thought I've got a few comments.. it just can't be "bezjmencie " natural order of things would change the word "basement" to "bejzment" not "bezjment" hence these are probably just examples forged by you polonius.. there are probably people who speak like that in US. Sometimes when I'm playing computer games with voice chat I can hear polish people mixing languages fi:

"szybko bakuj!!" ( retreat / go back )
"stanuj go!!" ( stun him )

It happens especially inside multiplayer computer games communities because of these games having certain word sets that allow you to communicate with other nationalities, in the same time polish people use "polish" version of these words. Sometimes it really leads to bizzare clumps of words and letter like:

"depeesuj go!!!" ( from dps - damage per second - it means "casting a spell that deals damage per second" ;) )

On the other hand the truth is that even english players can stay incomprehensible for their own folk while using these in-game "slangs", and each internet game community produces a new set of words..

Many polish people use english internet abbrevs while communicating with others daily like (literally) "wu te ef" ( wtf )

Every immigrant community in US or Canada produced its own version of their own language mixed with English. Ponglish is not understandable to native Poles. I'm trying not to use it as it is impolite and just "lazy" language. But have to admit it's fun sometimes :)

SORKI (to utter a 'high Polish' apology!) -- 'twas a typo and should've been bejzment.

frd -- I have heard each and every one of these Polglish words on a regular basis. None have been contrived or concocted for comic effect! Of coruse, you are right -- the degree varies from community to community and person to person. Some would always say ulica (never stryta) and dom (never hauza), but these same people might regularly use jarda, korner and sztor (podwórko, róg and sklep).
Very common are graduacja (W sobotę mój syn ma graduację), hajłej (highway),gazolina or just gaz (petrol), treki (tory kolejowe), insiura (insurance), forman (brygadzista), etc. Sometimes they involve only syntax: On był wczoraj na telewizji or słyszałem go na radio.
Other include norska (pielęgniarka), plombierz (hydraulik), buczer or bucier (rzeźnik), balbierz (fryzjer), drajwer (keirowca), pajnciarz (malarz), ticzerka (nauczycielka) and policman (policjant).

Alright, it seems possible. I just barely pointed out the basement thingie. As for the rest it all seems possible. You mentioned " "dom" never "hauza" " funny thing is that where I live ( Silesia ) there are people who say "idziemy na hauze" this time borrowing it from German pronunciation of house word.. ; )

Some of my mates while joking insert a word or two in english from time to time, "hajłej" or "drajwer" wouldn't baffle me at all.. some of these words though sound pretty peculiar..

This is a vast area of study...not just something to be laughed at. The late Prof. Witold Doroszewski in the 1930s travelled the byways of Wisconsin on a motorbike with a wire recorder (no tape-recorders yet back then) and recorded the speech of Polish immigrnat farmers living in remote rural villages such as Polonia, Warsaw, Pulaski and Kościuzsko Wisconsin and wrote this all up.
A combination of factors join to determine the kind of speech used including education level, region of Poland the immigrants came from and local American circumstances. In the Detroit area people from Wiekopolska would say sklep for cellar whilst others (like my ancestors) always said piwnica. Still others used bejzment. In Pennsylvania, where we also had relatives, a blood-curdling term in the Polonian mining communities was 'skifowało się' (there's been a cave-in). No-one in Michigan or Chicago would have understood that expression.
The language of immigrants from German-speaking partitions and their descendants often had their Polonian jargon doubly reinforced by both German and English A case in point is: Mój synek jest już trzy lata stary (three years old/drei Jahre alt).

Polonius3: 'skifowało się' It might also come from a semi-popular polish slang word "skifa" ( failure, shambles). So it's is possible that somebody in Poland could understand the meaning. I would.. get the negative connotation..

Never thought of that. I regard it as a Polonised spin-off of the 'cave' element, preceded by the perfectivising prefix 'z' which before a 'k' turns to 's'. Since these things were not codified, some speakers may have pronounced it: skejwowało się.

I like: eria - area karpet - carpet but kakroć beats all
