Some of these phrases are really ancient history, aren’t they?
(I should post this over on the Polish language board where it might have more traction.)
Lol - I laugh at some of the phrases, though I’ve also learned some interesting political, historical and geographical trivia from some. I felt compelled to google some to find out if they were made up or not! So far it’s all been legit lol

[details=“English Translation”]President Barack Obama praised Poland as an example for aspiring democracies in the Middle East and elsewhere.[/details]Yep. And, as time passes, things change again. Poland is back in the West’s good books as it has responded well to refugees from Ukraine.
Though, they (Poland/Europe as a whole) took a military hardline response for refugees from the Middle East and Afghanistan. The geopolitics of US/Russian proxy wars notwithstanding, it is difficult not to see the hypocrisy involved.
Nonetheless, I realise we’re diverging from language discussion itself.
I’m looking to travel to Romania next month, will have to see how well I do in immersion!
I think I’m going to have to cancel my October plans for Moscow and St. Petersburg though. Something tells me 2022 may not be the best year for such a vacation…
