In Polish people don't use Cloud but Chmura?
- bartekpacia 2y agoIt depends. If we’re talking about e.g. GCP we use “cloud”, but Chmura Krajowa is a Polish product and it has a Polish name, so we use “chmura”. We basically use the original name in this context.
- snowpid 2y agoInteresting. In Germany government uses the word cloud . Not Wolke. TIL something new.
- szszrk 2y agoIt seems to me Germans in general like to use English phrases, but on the contrary from other European places I know, they like to use the original pronunciation and spelling. Us, Poles, like to make it sound like Polish, add our own declension and so on.
- szszrk 2y agoBoth, but chmura is a non-controvertial and easy translation.
- biztos 2y agoIn Hungarian the people I know use felhő and not cloud. I don’t know what they say in actual IT circles but to my ears “cloud” sounds very awkward if stuck in a Hungarian sentence. https://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felh%C5%91alap%C3%BA_sz%C3%A1m%C3%ADt%C3%A1stechnika https://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felh%C5%91alap%C3%BA_sz%C3%A1m...
