Maybe this would be better suited to the translation forum, but I thought I'd ask in here first.

My mate was trying to explain this to me earlier today, and it's a mystery to me, so I got him to write it down.

Apparently he's "ketchup" .. or as it's spelt.. kaszcub.....

So.. my question, what is this all about??? From his explanation, I kind of got the impression it's something like a redneck, or a gypsy... but to do with the mountains..

So.. any info would be welcome :)

Kaszub, Kaszubia - a region in the northern Poland.

I don't think they have anything to do with ketchup, rednecks or mountains.
