Politics

Here are some words which can be useful when you discuss with someone about a politics:

Embargo
Minister
Senator
Premier
Referendum

Of course, these words have the identical spelling in English and Polish.

Names of planets

I think that everyone knows that are eights planets in our Solar System, but only two of them have the identical spelling in English and Polish:

Mars
Saturn

That will be my first post where I decided to add names of things which are similar in both languages. On the left side, you can see the English word, and after a colon there is a definition in Polish:

C > K

Mercury - Merkury

- E

Neptune - Neptun

- US

Uranus - Uran

V > W

Venus - Wenus

Pluto was described as a planet in many books, and I can still see this invalid information in my textbook from High school.

+ N

Pluto - Pluton

In the future posts, I plan to include more words which are similar in both languages because I have found many of them.

Mathematics

I found some words that are useful for people interested in the math, and they also exist in both languages:

Algebra

Minus

Parabola

Plus  

Zero

In the future, I will probably expand this short list of the mathematical words. 

Name of the countries in Europe

I think that is a right time to show you a short list of the names of the countries in Europe that have the same spelling in both languages:

Albania
Armenia
Austria
Estonia
Macedonia
Malta
San Marino
Serbia

Sadly, I could not add my country to the list.
In the future, I will present names of the countries on other
continents.

Popular places in a city

In this post, I want to present names of the popular places that are located in every city, and they are common in Polish and English:

Bank
Bar
Hotel
Kiosk
Motel
Sauna
Park
Pub
Supermarket
Port
Zoo

In the future, I will try expand the list of these words.

This blog is still active

I have not written anything on my blog since April. In this case, I decided to show several common words about time in Polish and English:

Era
Moment
Weekend

I just want to inform English speakers that Polish people do not use English word "Day" and "Week." We use different words to describe these periods of the time.

"False friends" in English and Polish

I think that will be an interesting topic if I start my second post about “false friends” in English and Polish. The spelling of these words is the same in both languages, but we pronounce them differently. One the left side you can see a Polish word, and after a colon there is a definition in English.

Garb - hump
Gnat - Bone
Ale - But
Baton – Candy Bar (US) or chocolate bar
Brat - Brother
Data – Date
Pan - Mister

Unfortunately, I do not know about other examples but I hope that I will find more words in the future.
