Interesting Polish tongue twister.

"Pójdźże, kiń tę chmurność w głąb flaszy."

This sentence contains all 32 letter of the Polish alphabet and each letter is used only once.

if anyone is wondering, the rough translation of that would be "Go on and drop your sadness into the depth of a bottle."

what's your fave polish tongue twister?

I'm impressed. I can't beat it.

hehe Makes red lorry, yellow lorry look a bit poor!

One in English:

Theophiles Thistle, the successful thistle-sifter,
in sifting a sieve full of un-sifted thistles,
thrust three thousand thistles through the thick of his thumb. Now.....if Theophiles Thistle, the successful thistle-sifter,
in sifting a sieve full of un-sifted thistles,
thrust three thousand thistles through the thick of his thumb,
see that thou, in sifting a sieve full of un-sifted thistles,
thrust not three thousand thistles through the thick of thy thumb. Success to the successful thistle-sifter!

Pewien narciarz z Sartogii zlamal sobie obie nogi, przyjechalo pogotowie, postawilo go na gowie i tak stoi dla przestrogi.

That was all very fun to say M

hmmmm... I'll go wash my tongue now

I'm still working on 'Świętokrzyskie', thank you very much

try "Rzeszowszczyzna"

yes, another mouthful, isn't it? A few months ago, a Polish friend of mine lent me a book, in Polish, on Polish castles. One of the words was a good inch-and-a-half long ! I wish I had written it down. I just couldn't believe my eyes. I love learning Polish.

But I have conquered 'Szczebrzeszyn'

Wow ! This word is even longer than the one I saw ! What does it mean?

Try this one:

W Szczebrzeszynie chszaszcz brzmi w trzcinie

Hey Miranda ! Good to see you ! I read you're about to leave for Poland. I wish I was going with you. Btw, you're simply great, you know that? You have an answer for everything and such a good angle when you respond to some of the posts. You've become my idol ! You go girl !

Syrena, you make me blush.
And you are my idol too - you are so balanced, while I am hot headed!!!!!
I think I made some enemies here too. I was a bit upset yesterday at some people's responses.
I managed to arrange my travel to Poland in no time. Thanks to the canadian government and travel agency I am able to go, even though 2 days ago I was not evenentartaining that idea. I love Canada!!!!

Well, you had every right to be upset ! That response in your thread was unforgivably nasty. What an insensitive jerk ! I think it's great that your travel plans came through so well. Must be a sign


Thank you Miranda. I love Canada too.


Gee, would you believe I'm a Libra? Wonder if that has anything to do with it. And, I'm not sure but, could you be an Aries?

Gemini actually - 2 people I call it split personality. I could be cool and rational and yet really emotional and too quick with reactions
What about you?

hahahahahah, good one

nine-hundred-ninety-nine-thousand ...but a thing

that'd be a 999.000m high mountain

How about sth that weighs 999.000 kilos ?

It made me think of mountains cos the only similar words i've come across in polish are "czterotysięcznik" and "trzytysięcznik", meaning respectively a 2.000 and 3.000m high mountain. But my dictionary says there's also "dwutysięcznik" - a two-thousand-tonner, that's a kind of ship?, and probably the name has sth to do with the weight. so, what i'm getting at is that you're right as well i guess

It's fun to say though

never said it's not

Ok fine....... Hasał huczek z tłuczkiem wnuczka i niechcący huknął żuczka. ? Ale heca... - wnuczek mruknął i z hurkotem w hełm się stuknął. Leży żuczek, leży wnuczek, a pomiędzy nimi tłuczek. Stąd dla huczka jest nauczka by niehasać z tłuczkiem wnuczka

you are very good F. Are you sure you are not Polish?
