    Colin, want to give google translator a try? Try this:

    Witaj Colin. Chciałem Ci tylko powiedzieć, że nie jestem przekonany czy używanie GT na wyłączność jest dobrym pomysłem. I masz rację co do ustnie przekazywanych wiadomości, które na samym końcu nie wiele mają wspólnego z oryginałem.

    I look forward to you replying. In Polish, of course

    Gday Mat GT jest naprawdę bardzo dobra, ale założę się, można oszukać, jeżeli próbowano zresztą ćwiczyłem mój rosyjski z Polakiem w moim miejscu pracy, tak, muszę mieć zabawny akcent, myślę, że to otworzy puszkę Pandory, Colin (dobra very similar to the Russian) you see it stuffed up on the Gday it can't handle slang

    Oh, that's fun. So you can understand what I wrote.

    Just to clarify - did you mention that a Pole used to teach you Russian?

    As to GT, I use it ocasionally. Having a lame translation is better than not having any at all. I think I once "spoke" to a Dane here. And I don't even know a word in Danish.

    .
    I took lessons at the local college but Ted "the pole" and myself worked at the same place so in the tea breaks and lunch breaks we would converse in Russian it really seems to be very similar to Polish, I picked up a bit of slang but it may have been Polish based and it was over 40 years past

    Actually, the two languages most similar to Polish are Czech and Slovak. You can understand most of what people frome these countires say and vice versa. With Russian - not so much...

    As to slang, I can teach you some Polish phrases if you want (bad language included)

    P.S.

    My Polish friend did speak Russian (obviously) and had been a POW of the Russians for a while, thanks for the offer of slang Mat but I am too preoccupied and old to make a decent attempt at it.
