Yet what a fine name it would make! I must go through the Deed Pole Office and change my name to Zabkowice Slaskie-think how impressive that would look in my passport at Polish customs! By the way, the town of Zadkowice I have never heard of but slaskie is an adjective meaning Silesia, I was in Katowice not long ago in late June and that is in Silesia also. Slaskie is an adjective in the neuter singular so ja jade ku temu slaskiemu miastu would mean me going towards that Silesian town. Incidentally, how are the Polish language lessons going? 8.28 Again, you have a masculine singular adjective 'stary' plus a feminine singular noun 'kopalnia' so should it be 'Stara Kopalnia?' I have never been there so I do not know but I understand some of the basics of Polish grammar.

I live here and I didn't realize it's so relatively good and clean. I am that pesimistic one I guess. We were used to being poor and politicians being corrupt and we've grown to hate that corruption. 😅 Some of us are misguided as to who does that, but most of us hate that eastern corruption as a way of life. The safety is relative toguh. Wemen are scared sometimes at night and conflicts do happen. I'm glad to hear they're relatively rare. And we drink way too much, though 20% of young people declare abstinency! I'm among them so I like that trend a lot. I think alcohol caused a lot of our problems and bad reputations.
@britinpoland239212 күн бұрын
Definitely the country is cleaner than most, I’d say most people take pride in not littering and the public services are doing a good job, there are also so many bins here compared with the U.K. for example! I think the corruption is there but is improving, it’s always a tricky subject 😅 As for safety, I think this has to be one of the safest countries in the world, I’ve heard of very little trouble outside of drunken incidents, though no place is completely safe I’ve personally always felt very safe and welcome here 😊

I do not know if you have done such a trip but even Katowice is interesting. I was in Czestochowa last week and took a train ride to Katowice and spent the night there. It is known for coal production, or at least it was but today it is a vibrant city in Silesia. I did not know what to expect but was pleasantly surprised, just a little hot walking around outside in Poland last week with temperatures reaching 30C! anyway, I am sure you can get a direct train from warsaw to Katowice and the new modern Polish trains are wonderful and clean as well as very comfortable.
