I have a Polish colleague and have picked up a few phrases that I like to throw into conversation whenever I get the chance. Unforunately I am not writing them down, just remembering them as best I can, so now and again I pick the wrong phrase out of the doldrums of my brain. Just the other day my friend sneezed and I searched the old grey cells but instead of finding na zdrowie, bless you, I smiled and told her zamknij się, shut up. Not so much a problem with the delivery, more so with my shot selection.
