I've been here for nearly 12 years, working as a translator, teacher (and other things). I live in the South Side, which I think is the best part. I'm probably leaving in the summer. Odpowiedz Link

nasza_maggie Re: KATOWICE a place to live in 13.02.06, 14:19 I like Katowice, although it has somewhat of a sad image/factory feeling. It is so great film and photo wise. And the people there make me laugh! I love the dialect. Odpowiedz Link
ql Re: KATOWICE a place to live in 13.02.06, 14:25 > I like Katowice, although it has somewhat of a sad image/factory feeling. Yes, there are many places where you become that feeling. > And the people there make me laugh! I love the dialect. Do you have your favourite words from Silesian dialect? There is one which is said to stem from English word "broomstick" meaning the same in Silesian dialect, but spelled: "brumśtyk". If it's true, I don't know. I just read some explanations in Harry Potter book. BTW: Do you live here? Odpowiedz Link
nasza_maggie Re: KATOWICE a place to live in 13.02.06, 14:32 nope I don't Most of the dialect there is from Germany so it is funny to hear them talk in it, because it sounds like Polish but it isn't really. There is a sitcom on TVP from Silesia, but I don't remember what it is called. One of the guys is called 'Bercik' I was recently told of a word, that sounds like hazel - but I will refrain from explaining further There was an advert on this forum about Śląsk - silesia.com ?

I've been here so long that if I don't go back soon, I'll never be able to adapt. I'll be 36 this year and I've spent a third of my life in K-ce, I don't regret it. It'll be difficult to leave, really difficult, but for various personal reasons now is the time. And after the recent election results, this country is completely and utterly fucked anyway.

ql Re: KATOWICE a place to live in 14.02.06, 09:01 Good morning Katowice Bercik and Święta Wojna Re what Nasza_Maggie wrote: the sitcom with Becik is thought to represent Silesia and people living here. It's true, but only to some extent. People here think, the sitcom is only spreading prejudices about Silesia - it hurts. Silesia isn't so poor as many people still think. People here aren't primitive. They are ... Yes, how they are??? Odpowiedz Link
nasza_maggie Re: KATOWICE a place to live in 14.02.06, 12:02 As for the series it is crap, but there you go. It is as much silesian as allo allo is french I know the people there aren't primitive. But you see, any language that has dialects - the dialects in someway implements that the people who speak it seem to be of lower class than those who don't... Anyway - the elections are making you leave Ian? Nice excuse.... Odpowiedz Link
