Sorry for being OT - I don't even know how the discussion started - but the bolded part is completely not true so I'd like to clarify that.

The only thngs that are dubbed in Poland are movies for kids (such as Pixar movies, Harry Potter etc) and cartoons - again, for children. And in this regard, Polish dubbing is among the best in the entire world

What you hear on tv IS NOT DUBBING. The way it works is this: a lector simply reads the translation of what the characters are saying when they are speaking. That's all. You can still hear the original soundtrack and the actors in the background, quite clearly I might add. Also, I can assure you that "getting character interaction" is not difficult at all. For one, when you grow up accustomed to it, it's only natural to tune out the lector and focus on the show itself. Two, there are only a few lectors (all male except for 1 female) in the entire country, and that's because it's a very tough and demanding job. A lector needs to have a good voice, perfect diction, pronouncation etc etc. Also, most of these guys are not actors by any means, as they neither act nor dub. They merely read.

Hope that helps.

PS. Oh, and the translation itself is a totally different matter altogether.

Fair enough! Having only spent 3 months over there and not being a Polish speaker it struck me as a bad way of dealing with the language issue. I did hear the original soundtrack behind the 'not dubbing', I just felt that having one person (particularly if they are not an actor) read the translation would lose a lot of the subtleties that the voice inflection the actors use would bring to character interactions. However if you say it works well then I'll happily accept that (and apologies for misinterpreting it). I suppose I can see how you would get used to it, but a Polish friend of mine wasn't that impressed with the way it was done. I was glad that they didn't dub films at the cinema - it meant I could go and watch the new Star Trek in English!

So... I just made the batter for the cookies I'm bringing to the East Coast Shipsgiving day shindig, and now I'm all full of anticipatory goodness! Woo hoo!

We're having a Pre-Thanksgiving Luncheon on Sunday for the entire extended family (that's the only time we can all get together). I'm picking up pies that I ordered from my school's culinary arts department tomorrow.

Sooooo looking forward to Shipsgiving goodness on Saturday!

What's with all the guests?! Come out, come out whoever you are.

I can't believe SHIPSgiving is almost here!

Whoa, I didn't know there was a line. They'll be waiting awhile.

I think they're waiting for the champion of The Best of the Ship to be crowned.
