Terms of endearment in Polish

Jedeane Macdonald	Feb 9, 06, 12:32 #1
For a novel, what terms of endearment were used in 1939?

Hi! Do you mean the movie?

Guest	Feb 11, 06, 14:28 #3
Not a movie, but sweet terms like "Honey."

Guest	Feb 11, 06, 14:29 #4
honey - kochanie

Guest	Feb 11, 06, 14:29 #5
Mi 2;y / mi 2;a - this definitely sounds old-fashioned

Guest	Feb 11, 06, 14:31 #6
or drogi (said to a male), droga (to a female)

Guest	Feb 11, 06, 15:26 #7
Quoting: Guest droga Forgive this little joke: Frank Sinatra's "My way" translates directly as "Moja droga"

Guest	Feb 11, 06, 23:11 #8
heheh, there is another one that you can tell your sweetheart: "mam pociag do ciebie"

Guest	Feb 11, 06, 23:55 #9
well I have a train towards you, right?

Guest	Feb 14, 06, 10:04 #10
drogi (said to a male), droga (to a female) mean what?

Quoting: Guest drogi (said to a male), droga (to a female) mean what? my dear

Guest	Feb 14, 06, 10:46 #12
to make everything exceedingly clear (but I think that the asker can also see that it's two words instead of one) my dear = mój drogi / moja droga

Guest	Feb 14, 06, 11:39 #13
Quoting: Guest heheh, there is another one that you can tell your sweetheart: "mam pociag do ciebie" this means either: "I am attracted to you" or "I'm catching a train to you"

forget my spelling, I can't spell Polish. But the nice thing is that I'll spell it phonetically for you.

My mother would say stuff like "ko-hana" which means beloved. Or "be-yed-naw jet-skaw" which means poor baby. I don't know why poor baby would be a term of endearment, but she always said that when she saw something terribly cute.

Does anyone know of a site like this one, but for Polish? Yes I have been learning Hawai'ian on the side. I think it would be important to know if/when I move to Kaua'i.

That would be great to have a site like that for Polish...anyone know of any?

hi, my best friends polish! hahaha and i know kocham cie means i love you. and piekna means beautiful. siostra is sister and bratowski is brother i think thats how you spell it. so saying "moja siostra" is like "my sister." Kisses is calusy. and okay i just wanted to send some random polish words! :)

Topic attached on merging:
Terms of endearment

I'm totally new to Polish. In fact, I started dating a girl who is originally from Poland, and I've decided I want to learn Polish. Of course, I have to start very simple...

I was wondering what kind of "terms of endearment" are commonly used in Poland. Like in English, we say "sweetheart," or "cutie," etc. (In Mexico, they say "pumpkin"...I have no idea how referring to someone as a large orange gourd is endearing.)

Anyway, please give me a few of the common terms and what they mean in English. Thank you!! :)
