In German, wikipedia claims "Polish in reverse" (though there's no other reference to that phrase on the Net, other than Reverse Polish Notation).
- karl42 6y agoAs a German, I've never heard "Polish in reverse", but "Spanish" works exactly that way ("Das kommt mir spanisch vor").
- wink 6y ago"Can't you understand what I'm saying? Am I speaking Chinese?" is pretty common as well.

- b0rsuk 6y agoI'm not surprised at all - it turns out Polish is one of the hardest languages to master. Norman Davies, a British historian fascinated by Central/Eastern Europe with a particular interest in Poland makes a couple of errors per several minutes of speech. Typically with noun genders. https://donald-static.s3.amazonaws.com/userimage/8cabf28c9709408fac2b9678d16b9dba.png https://donald-static.s3.amazonaws.com/userimage/8cabf28c970...
