>You wake up in Wroclaw, SilesiaWhat would you do?
Ask the Breslauer population in my best accent "Wo ist der bahnhof?" and take the train home.
>>216362746>Ask the Breslauer population in my best accent "Wo ist der bahnhof?"fun fact is that literally no one speaks German there
>>216362694VGH zentraleuropa...
Bring some southern diversity into it.
>>216362694i'd drink beer and go back to sleep
>>216362694probably find some cool museum, im sure theres some
>>216362951there are a lot of southrons therehttps://blog.futurechallenges.org/local/polands-little-italy-is-a-sign-of-the-times/
>>216363013It's also the centre of Polish Greek communityhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greeks_in_Poland
>>216363013>>216363045Truly a german city after all
>>216363079also it is estimated that around 15% of the city are Ukrainians nowadaysgenerally Wrocław has always been the most multiculti city here due to its post-war history and all kinds of refugees from all over eastern Europe moving there
>>216362694>no browns>no nigs
>>216363045Damn... imagine a polish Ikibey
>>216363138Actually quite interesting. Ty for telling me about poland anon
>>216363138>also it is estimated that around 15% of the city are Ukrainians nowadaysWhat do you feel when you hear easternspeak?If I was Polish I would get angry. Those people are basically Martians compared to you.
>>216362694have some cheeky zurek I fucking love the stuff
>>216363169desu a lot of these Greeks are actually Slavic Macedonians who were forcibly hellenized already in Poland, weird things were happening back in the 1950s. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xf5UIyhoZIc
>>216363183>What do you feel when you hear easternspeak?nothing anymore, it's so common nowadays so I think we stopped paying attentionyou meet Ukrainians everywhere, especially that they are probably overrepresented in customer service (shop assistants, waiters etc.) >If I was Polish I would get angry. Those people are basically Martians compared to you.nah, Poles and Ukrainians are very similar to each other, so are our languagesbtw, a lot of Polish Wrocławians were people resettled there after 1945 from Ukraine, so they would always speak Polish with an "eastern" accent. I think it's probably not even unusual nowadays that some 90-year old Pole and some 20-year-old Ukrainian immigrant in Wrocław were actually born in the very same village/town in Ukraine
>>216362694Call it Breslau and demand its return to Germany
>>216363358I think cultural differences show here. I want to step down on people different to me yet you want to bridge yourselves together.
>>216363265Lmao who forced them?
>>216363183I feel bad for them. Imagine choosing to live in a country where you are used as a hate target for a far right politicians. And its not like they have a place to go back to, since there is a fucking war going on in Ukraine.
>>216363358is it true that most of the polish lithuanians are from wroclaw?
>>216363476>since there is a fucking war going on in UkraineIt's mostly along the frontline, everything else functions. Feel bad for people dying on the front.
>>216363464Greek cultural institutions and orphanages.Poland took a lot of refugee children from the civil war-torn Greece in late 40s but we generally gave Greek communists coordinating this whole refugee settlement a lot of internal autonomy, so they ran their own cultural institutions in which they would hellenize these kids who often came regular Slavic Macedonian/Bulgarian families. Poles didn't interfere in that process much, probably our government didn't understand these Balkan ethnic intricacies either, so to Poles they were always knew as Greeks. Many of them rediscovered their Slavic roots only in the 1990s.They had a profound influence on our culture btw, a lot of singers, actors etc. came from this community.
>>216363507Idk what you mean by "Polish Lithuanians". If you mean Poles who were resettled to Poland from Lithuania after WW2 - then no, the resettlement process was mostly carried out along the parallels, so people from north-east (Lithuania, Belarus) were resettled to north-west (Szczecin, Gdańsk), while people from south-east (Ukraine) - to south-west (Wrocław). That was logistically easier as well as it was believed that it would be easier to adapt for them (especially regarding farming practices, in the south-east agriculture looked quite different than in the north-east because of a different climate and soil)
>>216363358Slovenes and Serbs are not>The boss wants this done by Friday>inshallah, brother, I shall rob this cornerstore, fuck your dog's uncle!
>>216363783>inshallah, brother, I shall rob this cornerstore, fuck your dog's uncle!Based. Dog eats dog world.
>>216363783okay but i don't think we were talking about Slovenes and Serbs here
>>216363619Kek. The only thing similar in Germany would be those Germans from Kazakhstan, etc. who were relocated there by Stalin and "came back" in the 90s. But we are very aware of their origin and they usually act more like russians - which is understandable considering their upringings.
>>216363839>The only thing similar in Germany would be those Germans from KazakhstanI think it's more like how many Kurds in Germany are raised as Turks because they're under pressure from the more organized Turkish German community, their own cultural institutions etc.
>>216362893When I was in Kotzslav everbody could speak German just fine, merchants, random people on the street that I asked for directions, restaurant workers. Same experience in Danzig, Krakau and Prag
Ok I can see that. I'm not involved with them so they are all Kanacken (no hate <3) in the end.
>>216363936meant for (you) >>216363891
>>216363928well, in tourism industry/business people might know some German same like they know English. But there are almost no native speakers/German minority living there, which is probably what everyone means when asking "if German is spoken there"German minority predominantly lives in the rural areas of western Upper Silesia.
>>216362694run before i get lynched in the town square
>>216364202why would polish people want to lynch a fellow slav?
>>216364202don't worry you're safe, we (especially our women) love Balkanbros
>>216363507Idk about Wrocław but last time I was in Kraków I've seen a group of Lithuanian tourists with a guide.I didn't understand anything but I think it's nice Lithuanians come here to discover our common historical heritage.
VGH...Mogs all Polish cities except maybe Gdansk
