    I'm stuck in my house with two polish guys painting the doors and skirting boards and they are both talking loudly in polish. I haven't a clue what they are saying. Just gave them both a coffee and now the seem to be talking even louder. One of them is almost shouting.

    Does anyone know any nasty polish words I should look out for?

    Cuurva or something like that is fcuk I think.

    Why you want to know what they're saying though, think they're conspiring against you?!

    That means whore AFAIK

    OP did you just wake up and find them fixing things like good spirited little elfs or did you employ said polaks to do handy type things with their Polish Handys?

    If you don't want them there, why did you hire them?

    I hate any work being done in my house, I always end up trapped in one room, periodically emerging to offer tea and biscuits, hoping they finish whatever they're doing soon so I can go to the toilet.

    I didn't hire them, the 'rents did!

    They're getting louder, I think they're slowing moving upstairs.

    It's more like 'Cheshch' actually

    'Curva' is a swearword, but it's practically punctuation (same as Irish people and the F word)

    Ah foreign languages, it's always the curse words that're learned first.

    I'm going to spell these phonetically even though I've forgotten what they mean!

    "Chesht" and "speared alloy". Now can someone tell me what they mean!? :pac:

    For the first, they don't shout, they just normally talk.They are incapable of conversation on normal volume level.
    For the second, words like fcuk and cnut are being used instead of adjectives, verbs and subjectives, both words "yes" and "no" and that all without any relevance towards you. Just replace them in your head with words "wellll, uhm...., eeeeeee...,..".
    For the third - it is not their fault, they have been influenced by their environment where they grew up.

    And the most important is that their work is more likely to be fine.

    They are talking in Polish because they are Polish. How could you possibly know what they are saying and why would you care? Mind your own business and let them do their job. If you react like this, maybe they will have picked up on your personality and so it's better that you don't know when they are actually calling you a cunt!

    I got through a good few trips in Poland learning off some phrases (helped that I was going out with a Polish girl at the time though!)

    What's Polish for "I bet the guy who gave us the coffee has an arsehole like a wizard's sleeve"?:confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,025 ✭✭✭problemchimp


    listen to see if they say "mowny gtosno, aby zdenerwowac na dole fukcer". It means "lets speak loudly to annoy that fukcer downstairs"

    'Czuję się zajebiście' - it means 'get back to work lazy infidels'.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 233 ✭✭andala


    Address either of them saying:

    "tea who you yeah bunny"

    emphasising the underlined words - you can be sure they'll understand you're not happy to have them around :rolleyes:

    Nevermind words, get the leather whip out and use the international language of physical abuse. "keep working slave!" is understandable in any language thanks to the tireless work of the British empire.

    I agree, stop being so weird about it, do you think you are so important that all they're gonna talk about is you? hardly, they're prob talking about football or women or polish politics (that big mess that it is at the minute)

    Don't say to them Schindlers List was a fantastic comedy...because there are way better comedies out there than that...and they may not like that...


  • Moderators, Regional North East Moderators Posts: 12,739 Mod ✭✭✭✭cournioni


    The worst polish words I can think of is, dusty, smeared, cobwebs. Good words I can think of is shine, clean etc.

    There isn't much to it really.
