pokój
English meaning: Peace
Polish Definition
(Polski)Stan braku konfliktu zbrojnego i harmonijnego współistnienia narodów.
English Definition
Freedom from conflict and war. Poland, positioned between Germany and Russia, has historically been a victim of geopolitical conflicts. The Polish experience of WWII devastation (6 million Poles killed — 17% of the population) makes peace and security existential concerns. Poland's active NATO membership and strong transatlantic ties reflect lessons learned from the catastrophe of WWII.
Example
“Polska, ofiar obu wojen światowych, upatruje gwarancji pokoju w NATO i UE.”
In English: “Poland, a victim of both world wars, sees guarantees of peace in NATO and the EU.”
