[19:30] <sadsun> o/
[19:31] <czajkowski> sadsun: hi
[19:31] <czajkowski> you're new?
[19:31] <sadsun> aye
[19:31] <czajkowski> welcoem
[19:31] <sadsun> ty
[19:45] <sadsun> so you like classical music?
[19:48] <czajkowski> nope fraid not
[19:49] <sadsun> ah, I thought so 'cause of your name
[19:52] <czajkowski> that's my surname
[19:52] <sadsun> wow, cool, any relations to the composer?
[19:54] <czajkowski> nope
[19:55] <czajkowski> my name is polish his was russian
[19:55] <sadsun> ah I see
[19:56] <sadsun> is it a common name in Poland?
[19:59] <czajkowski> no idea I'm irish
[20:00]  * sadsun 's confusion is complete now... o_O
[20:04] <Belgarath> sadsun: :)) people move around. Anyway there are some people earing this name in poland but it is not common
[20:05] <sadsun> :) true, where r u from?
[20:06] <Belgarath> btw the composer name spelling is different
[20:07] <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
[20:09] <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?
[20:10] <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
[20:11] <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?
[20:12] <czajkowski> I live in England
[20:13] <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
[20:14] <sadsun> really? so what would be the female version then? u r ahead of me ^^
[20:14] <Belgarath> :)
[20:15] <sadsun> does 'ski' mean son and 'ska' daughter?
[20:15] <Belgarath> sadsun: no
[20:16] <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
[20:18] <sadsun> complicated stuff o_O
[20:18] <Belgarath> you have no idea :))
[20:19] <Belgarath> but the way we beat everyone is exceptions to exception to the grammer rules :)
[20:20] <sadsun> is Polish grammar hard?
[20:20] <Belgarath> yes
[20:20] <sadsun> is it like German grammar?
[20:21] <Belgarath> no, german is much simpler
[20:22] <sadsun> okay, then Polish grammar must be really hard, because I thought German grammar was tough in my schooldays
[20:24] <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
[20:25] <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
[20:26] <sadsun> proper
[20:26] <Belgarath> I do:)
[20:27] <sadsun> Czech has Kafka
[20:27] <sadsun> is there a Polish equivalent?
[20:28] <Belgarath> well depending on what you mean, are you looking for somebody form the same time or just in general renown polsih writer?
[20:29] <sadsun> someone who would do the polish language justice... maybe a poet or songwriter?
[20:30] <Belgarath> in general : Adam Mickiewicz, Juliusz Slowacki, Stefan Zeromski (i skipped polish characteres in the surname)
[20:31] <sadsun> ah wow, cool, Dutch is a poor language, we are better in visualisation and therefore have great painters instead ^^
[20:32] <sadsun> Rembrandt, van Gogh, Vermeer
[20:36] <Belgarath> ok, time to go
[20:36] <Belgarath> see you all later:)
[20:36] <sadsun> c ya :)
