Pocałuj mnie – mówię po polsku !
Polish is the official language of Poland. It is the main representative of the Lechitic branch of the West Slavic languages. It's impossible to learn during one weekend, but it's worth trying to speak the language of the lovely local ladies. (Try to say: "W Szczebrzeszynie chrzaszcz brzmi w trzcinie" a famous polish tongue twister, which means: "In [the town of] Szczebrzeszyn a beetle buzzes in the reeds" after a couple of beers.)
