Jak sobie pościelisz, tak sie wyśpisz - the way you prepare your bed, the way you will sleep (means that you are often responsible for your own success/failure)

I really need some help. My boyfriend of 4 months has the letters DEL(possibly an I) tattooed on his left knuckles. I finally go the courage up to ask him about it last night. He said it's missing the last letter and all he will tell me is that it's a polish saying. I really want to find out what it could be and what it means. Any help would be great. Thanks!

Polak głodny, Polak zły

Każdy Polak po jedzeniu, nie zapomni o paleniu

A couple of good ones I hope

I am doing something in memory of my grandparents and i don't know polish very well but I really need to know which would be the best way to say/ write " They are resting in peace"

Spoczywają w spokoju

The least I could do given ur intentions :)

Hi all,

Just need help on a couple of nicknames my late grandmother used for old relatives: We had a left handed cousin somewhere along the line that was called something like "shmy-uh" meaning "Lefty" according to her. What is the word and what does it mean?

The other one I was wondering about was something she used to call old ladies that she was friends with, sounding something like "chuh-cha."

Thanks for any help!
