Please can you tell me how to say

"please put the chairs up on the table like this while you sweep and wash the floor"

"please wipe down the legs and seats of these chairs every week"

"Do you use bleach in all of the toilets after you have cleaned them?"

Thanks very much in advance.

I could ask my grandad if no one else can help?

mckenzie · 07/12/2005 19:15

thanks spaglorytoblog. Lets wait a bit and see if anyone else can help me. I'm sure there must be some polish Mumsnetters out there.

I speak Polish but not domesticated stuff like that!! Can find out for you though. Will get back to you.

Was hoping you were looking for someone to count to 5 and say hello and goodbye! I could have had my chance to shine

Ooh, and I can say a rude word!

mckenzie · 07/12/2005 20:35

I might need the rude word too, you never know!

I gather you have a polish cleaner! I'm surprised at the lack of English as most of the mums I know speak English really well!

followthestarlover · 07/12/2005 22:00

i give up! but if you google english polish translators you should be able to come up with something!

Prosze bardzo, krzesly na stole kiedy oczyscisz posadzka.

I prosze tygodniowo oczyscisz wszystcy krzeslow.

Czy uzywasz (wave the bottle) w toalecie po oczyscisz?

This is BAD Polish, the inflections are all wrong, and I can't write the signs or show the pronunciation...sorry. sz is pronounced sh, cz is ch, oczyscisz is 'o-chish-chish' - sort of - it's hard to explain. krzesly (chairs) is pron 'kzhesswi'.

Sign language is the way to go!

HTH a bit anyway.

mckenzie · 08/12/2005 10:00

thanks very ,uch. I'm about to try it out now so I'll let you know what happens. te he.
Just hope I dont end up with toilet bleach on the table.

How did it go? Puzzled stares?!
Do you speak any Polish at all? The pron is a bugger.
