Actually we have big onions in Poland too! It's not about GMO. There are many kinds of onions. If you buy onions only in popular stores, you will usually get only small to medium sized onions. When it comes to cooking recipes I have often trouble with onions or beetroos, because they come in many sizes and the recipe says "chop one onion" instead of "chop 100g onions".

I can even drive automatic (nothing difficult) but I never do it... The first memory I have from the driving lessons is when the car I drove slipped over on the iced railway ... If I had an automatic gear - I would simply smash into the tram and the driving teacher could have no chance to help me to avoid a crash. I'm not even surprised when US army (which IS all in all proffesional) have a crash with a tree in Poland every winter ;) Automatic gear may seem fun when you drive in sunny California on an empty highway... or I'm just a person full of panic :D I even refused my boss to drive our automatic company car unless he will pay me for the safety driving lessons with an automatic car :D And well ... I am a very good driver :P But I don't know how to react with a car full of electronics (And I had no trust in that electronics - unless it helps a bit... for eg. ABS or ESR). I need to have full control :D

It's obviously more comfortable and at the end of the day it's not a bad idea, but I would personally feel really stupid if I went to the shop and was too lazy to even leave my car for those few minutes to buy alcohol or whatever.

Quick correction to dates: in PL we don't use slash "/" as separator. We use usually dots: 05.08.2020 (day.month.year). Sometimes on reverse order: year.month.day as this is a new notation. And it's rather common in EU (except UK of course). The same is with time: 24h is rather common in EU. Metric system is common in the world, except UK and USA

Its more complicated. We also use dash 25-04-2020. Traditionally we used Roman numerals for month, so it was 25 IV 2020. Or with separating point. Year was often truncated to two digit. Computers changed our habit, and year 2000 also. In 1990 there were introduced oficial Norm, we should use YYYY-MM-DD format. The same is in ISO8601. That rule is not obeyed in common writings.

Preparing and eating vegetarian/vegan dishes brings me joy, allows me to experiment, try new ingredients... The economic aspect is also significant- just a few weeks ago, when meat prices increased, for a price of 1 kg of chicken breasts you could get (online) up to 5 kg of chickpeas- this amount will last me several months and I can create a lot of delicious and hearty dishes with it

I'm Polish and I strongly disagree. I only needed couple of months using US date system to find it better and I'll tell you why. In everyday use you dont really need years, because for the most part your referring to the current one and the months are more important than days so for example 25th of May is just 5/25 in common discussions, so it makes it more clear. And if you really need a year then you just add it in the end or beggining - doesnt really matter. The key here is MONTHS BEFORE DAYS. Cheers!

Trev, you are a great sport! Love what you do promoting my 'Old Country' the way it is, without sugarcoating, emphasizing that best but not covering up what's not that great about it. You should get a medal for it!😁 Poles don't eat out very much because until very recent it was quite expensive luxury. But in the last 5,6 years it started to change since their relative income went up and things that were considered a 'luxury' are not considered that anymore, eating out included. Especially your generation is doing that more and more. Older people like me still prefer a home cooking and a lot of polish women take a great deal of pride in their cooking and can be quite competitive in it 😁. So when you visit your relatives or friends and in polish tradition there is always a full table you can try some awesome things.

About the time, we sometimes use 12hr clock in unofficial situations when it's obvious whether we mean PM or AM, like "I'll pick You up at 5" mostly to make communication faster. 24hr clock is generally more popular (in 80% of unofficial situations too) and it's used in more formal situations like making an appointment with a doctor etc.

Trev I think that although there are indeed a lot of exceptions, part of our culture is “you are your work.” Like oftentimes the first thing you ask someone is what they do, and it takes up so much of our lives (not just in terms of time but also how we think). We base our identity not off of our cultural group or our religion or whatnot but rather off of our occupation. Of course all of this is a generalization, but it is a part of American culture

For naming files most sense makes doing year month and the day. For speach it makes sense to say the day first and in excel it just needs to be consistent all the time so the poor machine knows if this is meant to be 12th of January or December 1st.

I don't think either way of writing dates or money is objectively better than one another. They are just different. For dates, Americans write it how they say it (August 6th, 2019-8/06/(20)19), while the polish put the day first since it is the most important indicator of what day it is (you usually know what month and year you are in). For money, the Polish write it how they say it , while Americans put the currency sign before the number since it is a good indicator of what they are talking about before they read the number. Both have their pros and cons.

Nonetheless, I think you do well in pointing these distinctions out to general audiences who travel between Poland and the USA. Good work.

handwritten "4"s are also different. When I write it fast, most Americans would read a "6". Needed to re-learn the numbers to avoid missunderstandings and make sure my mail is getting where it should. It is much more convinient and common to use 24h format. Usually if you just say "at seven" and there is no specific context (like for example it isn't obvious that this is something that will happen after work) you would need to add "in the evening" otherwise it would be understood as the 7 in the morning, whereas when you say "at nineteen" you know it right away. I live now in the US and I am quite bothered that I cannot have 24h format in an alarm clock that I bought and if I set 24h format in my computer Excel wants to do everything in Polish... cannot have hour 24h and Polish keyboard but Excel and number US settings. (computer bought here, recently). With the date I guess this is Americans that do it all the way round vs most of the world. We also say 7th of August, rather than August 7th when we speak. And I found it to be "our" way in most of other places so far. Don't even get me start on imperial system... it makes absolutely no sense... and one onion is here more or less 1 pound. we get 4 onions in a kilo. You have here also different windows. In Poland windows, ususally, open inwards. And you can make them switch to open horizontally (and for example clean the outside of it standing in your room) or vertically just the upper part. I find unnerving the fact that here I cannot access the outside. and I cannot clean it, living on a 3rd floor. In Poland clean windows are part of clean home. At my home we were washing them every month. You would have nosy neighbors talking bad about you if you had your windows without cleaning for 3 or 4 months. Here I find it not to be too important. I even hired a window cleaning crew when I moved in to the appartment. They serviced 9 windows from the inside with one sponge and the same centimeter of half clean water.... and from the outside they had a pole with a brush and hose attached to it. They even didn't remove screens... so aaaall the dirt from the screens was offset to the windows. For a Polish person it is kind of unthinkable. soo.. I wasn't happy so the guy performing the service called the owner of the company. The owner came pretty upset that I have crazy demands (and I was paying close to 300 USD), but eventually he got on the ladder..... and it turned out that the glass is damaged and it will never appear clean as it is just already un-transparent from the years of service and the water that with each rain was getting in between of the layers of glass... so I tried to get the administration to change the panels for me (I wanted to pay for it) but they told me this is unreasonable so I am stuck with dirty windows. And hence each Polish guest I have I tell this longish rant as I feel deeply ashamed of the state of my windows.... but by expressions of the face of my work colleagues here I gather my problem with the windows is not entirely understandable here.

1. Handwritting - we are learning at first school to write in cursive and in higher classes we can slightly change our handwritting to more print or sometimes even technical writting (we are learning this at school sometimes too, but it's only required in technology classes). On university, we sometimes change our handwritting style 'cause of learning style (hear-write-look-learn at the same time). See: [handwritting in school] sierysuje.pl/pismo-szkolne/ [technical writting] mechatronikanausiu.opx.pl/pismo.htm www.italki.com/entry/51254?hl=en-us 2. Cash notation - we write unit at the and of cash expression, because we write it in other expressions at the and too. For example, we write: 100,10 zł (which is 100 zł and 10 gr) and 100,10 cm (which is 1 m and 1 mm, btw - last zero is unnecessary - I write it only for this example). We use for decimal comma or dot - it depends on personal style or willing (comma is more common, though). And not always we use space for separating numbers - especially in handwritting. It's correct to write 1000, but 1 000 is more clear and pretty. 3. Dates - we use different date notations, but almost always we use pattern from smaller to bigger time unit - day, month, year (and "r." or "rok" as "yr" or "year"). I think, using dot or "-" as a separator is much more common than / in everyday life. For example this Christmas was on 24.12.2019r. and next Halloween will be on 31-10-2020. Sometimes in less official cases we use month name or shortcut in notation (but then we don't use dots - f.e. 24-gru-2019 or 24 grudnia 2019 etc.). It's funny that correct we say "24 grudnia" (we use noun declension - "the 24th [day] of december") not "24 grudzień" ("the 24th december"). 4. Time notation - we often use 24-hr notation but in informal situations we use sometimes 12-hr clock (but instead of AM/PM we use f.e. "7. rano" / "7. morning" or "5. po południu" / "5th [hour] after midday"). Somet we cut off the time of day indication when it's not necessary for example on 15:20 (3:20 PM) we can say that it is 20 after 3rd because if it was AM, it would be dark. 6. Vegetables and recipes - oh dear, I don't like recipes that say you about using pieces instead of weight/volume units. But, in common these old fashioned recipes say about average normal size [vegetables or orher foods] and you must know cooker to know what is average. We have in shops super big potatoes, carrots or parsleys, sometimes cabbages. I've never seen so big onnion. There was a joke about grandma learning grandchild to cook pierogi. Grandchild Anna goes to grandma Stefcia: - Grandma, can you say me recipe to do pierogi? - No, I've never coocked from a recipe, no one teaches me, I must do it, you have seen me do this many times! - But grandma, I need it to repeat later at home. We could start with basics: how much flour should I use. - I don't know, each flour is different, dough should be proper consistency. - What consistency, grandma? - Uh-oh, consistency of... of pierogi dough, of course! You don't listen to me. 7. About wearing weather-related clother - we take off outerwear when we walk into buildings. I know people that change all wearing when they come for work building, or change shoes after coming out of a car. It is sometimes connected with that there is not always AC in buildings, older busses or flats don't have/use it.

The dash in number seven is added exactly because of the way number one is written - it helps to clearly differentiate both numerals, as they can appear almost identical when writing quickly. Number 9 is exactly an inverted 6 (also in printed numerals, not just handwriting). Commas and dots are used exactly opposite in Polish and English numerals. You can tell the time both ways in Polish - using the "military" version is slightly more formal and people use the 12-hour variant when the time context is obvious (morning or afternoon/evening). Metric system is now officially in use in the UK (and taught at schools), but people use some imperial units in daily life in traditional situations - they buy potatoes by the pound, have a pint of beer at a pub, and so on. Red light is an absolute no-go in Poland - the only vehicles which can ignore it are ambulances, fire engines and police cars which are on duty. The race box on American forms is totally absurd and I can't imagine what purpose it serves apart from gathering statistical data (e.g. how many Black or Asian people are doctors or butchers in the US). Plus, Polish constitution states that race is an irrelevant factor for the Polish law and cannot be used to discriminate or privilege anyone. Eating out (in most cases) is still far more expensive in Poland than buying basic groceries and cooking at home.

The clothing thing is connected to us going by buses and walking everywhere mixed with unpredictability of weather and life in general. In the morning it was 20C then you go back from job its -2C or 8C and raining like crazy. Sometimes I would hit some bar or restaurant straight from my work and I would be back late at night so obviously it would get cold.

I guess Americans don't need extra warm coats, scarfs, and hats because you drive everywhere. Home -> Car -> Restaurant -> Car -> Home. This combination doesn't require a lot of walking in the snowy, cold weather. In Poland when you have to wait for a bus (that is probably going to be late), you appreciate that nice, thick winter coat.

Hi Trev. Since I haven't found any other way to contact you, I'll post it here. A thing that really pieces me off is the way polish roads are put on maps, especially googlemaps and michelin, since these are the most popular i believe. I've got no idea what your location is, but I'm quite sure you're aware that there are highways in Poland. To be exact we've got three of them.. A1, A2 and A4. And these are shown on gmaps as any other highways in any other European country. That's fair. What gets me is the way our expressways are shown. There are more than 6000 km of expressways in Poland and you can't really see them if you use gmaps. They look (almost) the same, as ordinary state roads. Whereas in fact these roads are of much higher quality, than many of higways in so called 'western' Europe. What I mean is that foreigners planning their route in or through Poland are not being given a proper image of how these roads are. If they rely on gmaps, they cannot be aware that our express S8 between Warsaw and Wroclaw is in many ways better than probably most of highways in Italy, France, former East Germany...Same with S3, S5, S6 and I could go and on and on.. I hope you know what I mean... dużo zdrowia, keep safe.

I've never heard that wearing a hat inside is disrespectful other times when it's by the table (especially eating) or in the church (men only). But there is something else that I consider very disrespectful (and a lot of Americans are doing that) - It is wearing sunglasses talking to somebody (especially "in four eyes"). I don't know if you bother but there is also another irritating habit that a lot of people do (I don't know how it is in US) - It is reaching your hand for handshake, not bothering to take off your gloves (especially those for working). I really hate that and I think about these people as a really stupid ones. Not all the PL people are putting so much clothes when it's cold. I am personally - never wearing a scarf, hat or gloves and I am also very surprised when I see for example people in thick hats - not taking them off after entering the heated bus or train. I would die from discomfort :) I think it is from parents, grandparents etc talking about that you will get sick from cold..

Yeah, in Poland people usually shorten hours in colloquial speech, btw it's very useful. For example, you want to say, that it's 5pm. In polish instead of saying 17:00 (siedemnasta - seventeenth), you can say just 5 (piąta), (no "hour"/"pm" word after it). It literally means fith (hour after midday). But saying full hours (18, 19, 23 etc...) is common as well ;D

2:07 Yes, you are wrong. We never put commas as thousand separator, usually we put space and rarely nothing at all. However we sometimes use dot instead of comma as decimal separator, I think because we use a lot of US software / coding languages. It really blows your head off when some software is adapting and accepts commas (e.g. MS Excel) and some is not and accepts dots (e.g. Matlab). Another difference regards big numbers. 1 with 9 zeroes you call "billion" while we call it "miliard", and your "trillion" is our "bilion". We basically use -on and -ard repeatedly and introduce new beginning every 6 zeroes, while in US it's only -on and new beginning every 3 zeroes. It's tricky in translations. 3:40 We consider 24h time the specific, precise one. So we use it always in formal, and most of the times in casual. I would say that all digital clocks in Poland are set to 24h format and because of that for their users is natural to read what is written. 12h format is sometimes present in speech, almost always with very informal time expressions like "fifteen to five" (za piętnaście piąta) when we are 100% sure that the other person knows if we talk am or pm. If we have any doubt that number will be not enough and am/pm information would be necessary we always go 24h. And I think the 12h format is slowly getting extinct together with analog clocks. It's clearly more popular among people aged 40+ raised in analog world than among teenagers raised by smartphones.

Home made food = a lot healthier and you need to put some effort making it. I'm sorry but that's pure lazyneess and it's been mentioned in the Us you got drive through everything so you don't even have to move your ass going to the shop, pharmacy etc etc. That's why half of Americans is obese. Hate me for that but it's a fact.

Generally I agree but look, you can get some high quality food at the restaurant too (not McDonald's though) and on the other hand you can prepare some crap food at home. It depends on what ingredients you use and the way you cook them.

It is simply faster, more convenient, and even cheaper sometimes to eat out here in the US. Restaurants buy ingredients in bulk so they can get them cheaper and they have specific equipment for what they make so they can make it more efficiently. It saves a lot of time actually. The reason I think some Americans are so fat based off of what I've seen with my family (I am the only healthy person in my family) is that they binge eat a bunch of junk food when they are bored or stressed or something. And it's also not true that Americans don't cook. My parents cook everyday, and we probably eat out maybe every other day. Restaurant food is always better than their cooking though for a multitude of reasons, and eating out doesn't = fat.
@ognicho2333
@ognicho2333 3 года назад
I personally think that a home made food is better cause you know how was it made and I also think you feel better knowing that you made this and it tastes as good as in some restaurant and sometimes even better. And also every person cooks different. A tomato soup for example can have so many different tastes that it's just fascinating. (I am sorry for all spelling and grammar mistakes cause there are some for sure)
