Why do people think that I'm Polish ?

lol	Sep 20, 06, 18:48 #1
i don't look polish at all ...... this morning someone told me are you polish???? ...... ...... are there any manners or common things polish people say that u can realize that that person is polish?????????

you're going to have to elaborate...........some Polish people have a certain look, or a Polish face that is easy for another Polish person to recognize.........two people can look totally different but still have this Polish look............I dunno, maybe you have some of these features in your face.............anyways do you live in a Polish neighbourhood or something............

maybe you didn't take shower in the morning - that's why..?

I think your opinion would be more suitable about an English person. Well, I guess it can also apply to any nation for that matter. Hygiene is more a personal feature rather than a feature that characterises a particular nation. Although I do realize one could argue about it.

For me I am Polish but few people told me in England that i don't look foreign. I mean before i open my mouth and start speaking.... accent is accent.

Touché, you cheeky little monkey, you!!!

PS: Speaking of hygiene, I noticed that a lot of English builders were lacking the habit of washing their hands after doing a poopoo or a lulu...And I'm not talking here only about the laborers, but also supervisors. For me it was unthinkable.

I don't know how does the situation look with other English blokes, but remember kidos, think twice before you shake English builders hand.

I'll remember that for future reference......but it's not only builders I have seen women do it in toilets in bars....eeeewwwwwwww

To be honest many people lack personal hygiene, the worst case i have expereinces is from African's which seem to go out of there way to smell - cleaning of the hands is disgusting but not using deodrant of some form is even worse. There is no excuse for it i mean how much does it cost to buy deodrant - or even wash your armpits? x

Lol - if you thought you had problems, people think I look Australian, New zealand, South African, Greek, Italian!!!! I used to work in a bar and I often had a lot of people come up to me ask where I was from. Once I told them I was from 'just around the corner' and was actually born in England they would be very surprised!!!! I think I resemble different facial features that may give me a foriegn look plus people do sometimes think that I have a slight twang in my speach that may make me sound like an Australian, South African etc... So what the bloody hell am I then? I think I better start asking my mum questions...about a certain milkman maybe hmmmmm!!!!

Yeah cool. The first time I came to this place was when I needed to translate some Polish. But when I started reading all the different discussions I thought it was pretty cool. Just reading everyone else's translations helps you with your polish, or even english for the poles I guess. I noticed that the people are arlight here cos the first time I asked for something to be translated they helped me out straight away so that was cool. Hopefully I'll be able to do the same once I've improved on my Polish. Anyway I'll shut now, I'm using up all the space lol.
