[16:48] Tog open social is also tomorrow [16:49] as i will be building my TV-B-Gone in Tog, i will probably be staying there for the social [19:28] anyone home? [19:30] o/ [19:31] sadsun: hi [19:31] you're new? [19:31] aye [19:31] welcoem [19:31] ty [19:45] so you like classical music? [19:48] nope fraid not [19:49] ah, I thought so 'cause of your name [19:52] that's my surname [19:52] wow, cool, any relations to the composer? [19:54] nope [19:55] my name is polish his was russian [19:55] ah I see [19:56] is it a common name in Poland? [19:59] no idea I'm irish [20:00] * sadsun 's confusion is complete now... o_O [20:04] sadsun: :)) people move around. Anyway there are some people earing this name in poland but it is not common [20:05] :) true, where r u from? [20:06] btw the composer name spelling is different [20:07] me ? [20:07] aye? [20:07] Poland [20:07] hmm... did all the irish move to america? :P [20:07] * sadsun is Dutch [20:09] wiki-ed it and u r right; it is Tchaikovsky [20:09] well it is the same surname [20:09] is the pronunciation the same though? [20:10] russian letters are divverent so the spelling in every country is adjusted to represent the correct pronunciation [20:10] yes it is the same [20:10] I see, fascinating [20:11] 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] uhm okay, why? [20:12] I live in England [20:13] sadsun: it is because there are different grammer forms for male and female [20:13] 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] really? so what would be the female version then? u r ahead of me ^^ [20:14] :) [20:15] does 'ski' mean son and 'ska' daughter? [20:15] sadsun: no [20:16] 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] complicated stuff o_O [20:18] you have no idea :)) [20:19] but the way we beat everyone is exceptions to exception to the grammer rules :) [20:20] is Polish grammar hard? [20:20] yes [20:20] is it like German grammar? [20:21] no, german is much simpler [20:22] okay, then Polish grammar must be really hard, because I thought German grammar was tough in my schooldays [20:24] 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] but the grammer is probably one of the hardest [20:25] do u have great Polish literature? [20:25] unlike english each letter in polish (unbless in 2-leter vocal) gives only one sound [20:25] sadsun: you mean proper or school books ? [20:25] Dutch has 2 letter vocals as well [20:26] proper [20:26] I do:) [20:27] Czech has Kafka [20:27] is there a Polish equivalent? [20:28] well depending on what you mean, are you looking for somebody form the same time or just in general renown polsih writer? [20:29] someone who would do the polish language justice... maybe a poet or songwriter? [20:30] in general : Adam Mickiewicz, Juliusz Slowacki, Stefan Zeromski (i skipped polish characteres in the surname) [20:31] ah wow, cool, Dutch is a poor language, we are better in visualisation and therefore have great painters instead ^^ [20:32] Rembrandt, van Gogh, Vermeer [20:36] ok, time to go [20:36] see you all later:) [20:36] c ya :)
