Polish for Posties!

Post by Homo Harry »

OK mates!

You may, or may not like our Polish friends, BUT, when you're standing in the rain, cold and wet, you may want to make the eejit at the door understand you.... and you don't then have to wait for 5 minutes, while they go and get out of bed some poor sod who's just finished a night-shift, who just happens to have a packet you need signing for.

Raz-um-yen?

OK... Polish for Posties!

Say it as it's written... it's phonetic!

Pro-shah, Pod-pish Showl.... Please Sign Here.

Jenky.... Thanks.

Tack.... Yes.

Nia... No.

Cor-va-much! ... For f***s Sake!

Raz-um-yen ... understand? (Nia raz-um-yen = don't understand)

And the most important....


Jenky Pi-yenk-na Ko-Be-Yatta.......

..... thanks, pretty lady! :Very Happy


Is there anything else, specifically postal related, that people need translating into Polish.... ????? Or is there anything you know, that you can put in here?

What has the above got to do with learning something that may:

A: help you in your job.

B: get you shagged by a Polish lass?

I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Can I ask this.... as a lot of newly arrived Poles tend to live in big B&B's, which we all know of some, isn't it worth dropping this leaflet through the letterbox of those types of places on a semi-regular basis?

I'll be posting it up in the Polish shop I go to for my very cheap beer :D

Tell you what "mylegshurt" .... you start typing in English that I can actually understand, without having to read it 3 times, and then having to guess at what kind of statement you are trying to make... before you criticise a thread in 2 languages... ok?

It's a simple thread...

It's about:

How to say Yes, or No... or I don't understand, in Polish.

It also mentions how to say, in Polish, "Please sign here"

It MAY stop some posties waiting on doorsteps, while someone who doesn't speak English, fetches someone who does.

It also has that little bit at the end... where you can compliment any Polish lass...

If YOU have a problem with foreigners.... then confine it to your own head.

Personally, I have a problem with fuckwits... but you don't see me going on here whining about you...

:cool

Cheers Homo, got a few Poles, even in shitty 7Oaks. Any chance of

"This packet is too big for your letter box"

and

"I could not bend this to fit through"

Just remembered

"Could I use your khazi?"

And I'll never get the chance to use it, but if I don't know it, I'll never have the chance to be offered

"Cheers luv, tea, milk, one sugar." :dance
I don't suppose your mouth bleeds every 28 days, does it?

Mail delivery; those that can, do, those that can't, MANAGE!

Steady on Jim mate.... I aint a native Pole... as you well know from us getting pissed up elsewhere :wink:

I'll try and get a proper translation tomorrow.. but for now, with my pidgin-polish...

"Could I use your khazi?" ..... Ti-oy-letta pro-shah? :nervous

"Cheers luv, tea, milk, one sugar." Pro-shah, herbiatta, ras sugar... (and a kleenex knowing you!)

the others, no idea!

But anyone else i free to add to this... or ask other stuff... that may be of use... in the mean time, I'll be bothering the fellow Polish agency workers on the chip packing line at McCains for translations....
