czajkowski | sadsun: hi | 19:31 |
czajkowski | you're new? | 19:31 |
sadsun | aye | 19:31 |
czajkowski | welcoem | 19:31 |
sadsun | ty | 19:31 |
sadsun | so you like classical music? | 19:45 |
czajkowski | nope fraid not | 19:48 |
sadsun | ah, I thought so 'cause of your name | 19:49 |
czajkowski | that's my surname | 19:52 |
sadsun | wow, cool, any relations to the composer? | 19:52 |
czajkowski | nope | 19:54 |
czajkowski | my name is polish his was russian | 19:55 |
sadsun | ah I see | 19:55 |
sadsun | is it a common name in Poland? | 19:56 |
czajkowski | no idea I'm irish | 19:59 |
* sadsun 's confusion is complete now... o_O | 20:00 | |
Belgarath | sadsun: :)) people move around. Anyway there are some people earing this name in poland but it is not common | 20:04 |
sadsun | :) true, where r u from? | 20:05 |
Belgarath | btw the composer name spelling is different | 20:06 |
Belgarath | me ? | 20:07 |
sadsun | aye? | 20:07 |
Belgarath | Poland | 20:07 |
sadsun | hmm... did all the irish move to america? :P | 20:07 |
* sadsun is Dutch | 20:07 | |
sadsun | wiki-ed it and u r right; it is Tchaikovsky | 20:09 |
Belgarath | well it is the same surname | 20:09 |
sadsun | is the pronunciation the same though? | 20:09 |
Belgarath | russian letters are divverent so the spelling in every country is adjusted to represent the correct pronunciation | 20:10 |
Belgarath | yes it is the same | 20:10 |
sadsun | I see, fascinating | 20:10 |
Belgarath | althouth it would be more complex if we were in poland or russia as it would be impossible for female to be called czajkowski :) | 20:11 |
sadsun | uhm okay, why? | 20:11 |
czajkowski | I live in England | 20:12 |
Belgarath | sadsun: it is because there are different grammer forms for male and female | 20:13 |
Belgarath | and while male surname is czajkowski the female would be czajkowska which would hold mostly true for any surname notending with a in the male form | 20:13 |
sadsun | really? so what would be the female version then? u r ahead of me ^^ | 20:14 |
Belgarath | :) | 20:14 |
sadsun | does 'ski' mean son and 'ska' daughter? | 20:15 |
Belgarath | sadsun: no | 20:15 |
Belgarath | however in russia it is still known to use midle name of the father in your name, however that was never commonplace in poland | 20:16 |
sadsun | complicated stuff o_O | 20:18 |
Belgarath | you have no idea :)) | 20:18 |
Belgarath | but the way we beat everyone is exceptions to exception to the grammer rules :) | 20:19 |
sadsun | is Polish grammar hard? | 20:20 |
Belgarath | yes | 20:20 |
sadsun | is it like German grammar? | 20:20 |
Belgarath | no, german is much simpler | 20:21 |
sadsun | okay, then Polish grammar must be really hard, because I thought German grammar was tough in my schooldays | 20:22 |
Belgarath | it is, polish my not be most difficult language in the world because of ease to read as pronounciation is stright forward if you lern all the letters and two-letter vocals | 20:24 |
Belgarath | but the grammer is probably one of the hardest | 20:24 |
sadsun | do u have great Polish literature? | 20:25 |
Belgarath | unlike english each letter in polish (unbless in 2-leter vocal) gives only one sound | 20:25 |
Belgarath | sadsun: you mean proper or school books ? | 20:25 |
sadsun | Dutch has 2 letter vocals as well | 20:25 |
sadsun | proper | 20:26 |
Belgarath | I do:) | 20:26 |
sadsun | Czech has Kafka | 20:27 |
sadsun | is there a Polish equivalent? | 20:27 |
Belgarath | well depending on what you mean, are you looking for somebody form the same time or just in general renown polsih writer? | 20:28 |
sadsun | someone who would do the polish language justice... maybe a poet or songwriter? | 20:29 |
Belgarath | in general : Adam Mickiewicz, Juliusz Slowacki, Stefan Zeromski (i skipped polish characteres in the surname) | 20:30 |
sadsun | ah wow, cool, Dutch is a poor language, we are better in visualisation and therefore have great painters instead ^^ | 20:31 |
sadsun | Rembrandt, van Gogh, Vermeer | 20:32 |
Belgarath | ok, time to go | 20:36 |
Belgarath | see you all later:) | 20:36 |
sadsun | c ya :) | 20:36 |
