Brzeg - English version - a question

Temat postu: a question
If you had a chance to talk to a foreigner about Brzeg, what would you tell him/her about it? How would you depict our hometown?
przem - 2010-05-27, 09:20

I think about location (for example if I will be in England or another country or beyond Brzeg for person who doesn't know about Brzeg), monuments, industry, history and the local spectacles.

Wouldn't you mention our parks?

Yes, I would but I forgot about parks when I wrote my first post :roll:

Grzech - 2010-05-29, 09:20

And which one would you choose to describe to the tourist?

The biggest park - Liberty Park. It's my favourite :)

Well, you should know then that the formal name for this park is Julius Peppel's Park, but, certainly, one may use the informal one at will.
Do you have your favourite place in this park?

Yes, I know :)
Cytat:

I like a majority of places in this park. The most: west and south parts :)

Grzech - 2010-05-29, 20:13

What about Kwadratówka? It is my favourite place.
przem - 2010-05-30, 11:24

In my opinion it's neglect :(
I'm interested in ponds in this park - about deeps.

Grzech - 2010-05-30, 15:30

How many ponds are there? I know about one, if we exclude Kwadratówka.
smooth - 2010-05-30, 15:57

Probably it's a matter of definition, but I guess there are two ponds in 'Liberty Park'.
Grzech - 2010-05-30, 16:31

Really? The one is just next to the forest caretakers' building, and the other?
smooth - 2010-05-30, 21:25

If Forester’s lodge means the same as forest caretakers' bulding then we'are talking about the same pound of cours if we take 'kwadratówka into cosideration (I know, we shouldn't).
So actually there is one pound :wink:

Grzech - 2010-05-31, 06:56

I excluded Kwadratówka a little bit earlier.
As to the building in the park - in my view it is not a lodge, lodges are smaller. We call it "leśniczówka" out of local traditon. However, you are right to write that "forester's lodge" means "leśniczówka" in English.
Let me ask you - if you were to say which park in Brzeg is best for a walk, would you choose Peppel's one?
And do we have a German name for Kwadratówka? Probably so, for it has been there for over 80 years, I suppose. I wonder what we could call it in English...

Yes, I would :)
But I think Park over the Moat is good too :wink:

przem, you ought to participate down here in the English part more often, not just once a year:-)

Oh, I would like, but we haven't got any topics :( , unfortunately I don't always have enough time, and my English isn't perfect and in that reason sometimes I'm silent :wink:

<a class= - 2011-04-28, 15:34

Let me ask you this - are you taking matura exams this year?
przem - 2011-04-28, 17:20

No, I'm not :)
<a class= - 2011-04-28, 19:27

In that case - next year?

No :-P
I passed matura exam last year :wink:

<a class= - 2011-04-29, 14:57

I see, thank you.
