Hey! How's your busy busy thing coming along?
I am tidying up right now, so hopefully I can finally try to catch up. I should hopefully start coming back in next week.
Hey, I know you're really busy lately, but I just wated to ask you when you would be able to return to our prompts thread? Thing is we need a new prompt by Monday and there aren't really any volunteers again. Worst comes to worst, I'll post myself again, but just let me know when you've sorted out your things and want to come back
Not as bad as English food. Not that us Americans can talk considering we tend to bastardize every food we touch. I still enjoyed that Beet Soup.
But our food is terrible!
I only know because we have quite a few sections of the city with an Eastern Europe immigrant population. I was introduced to a nice Polish restaurant while I was there.
Oh yeah I remember when someone once asked the people on "Whose line is it anyway" to do an impression on Polish and it sounded like Russian. But I understand how someone who only has, you know, just a general knowledge in languages would have a hard time distinguishing them. I'm glad you guys at least know Polish exists. I've talked to people who were convinced we either spoke Russian or German Polish and Czech, however (plus Slovak) are quite similar (Czech and Slovak much more to each other, since they used to be essentially two dialects of the same language), as they're all Western Slavknic languages, as opposed to like Russian and Belarus, which are Eastern Slavonic. Still, they have some similar aspects. I also like how Portugeuse is a Romance language but has shades of Slavonic languages in its phonetics. It's awesome.
I can understand, I have issues distinguishing Eastern European accents when I try them. My fake Russian accent is a terrible mismash of five regional dialects with some Polish and Czeck thrown in to make it grating.
Oh, I know. My whole BA thesis was about them Still, when I try to do them now, my tongue gets all twisty and crampy.
It's not difficult honestly, the hard part is distinguishing it from Redneck or Southern aristocracy.
