neutral  Andrew Stanleyson: Sądzę, że lotus to "ciut" więcej niż po turecku. Czyż nie?
6 mins
  -> tlumaczenie dotyczy jogi, siad po turecku jest jakims kiepskim tlumaczeniem pozycji lotus
neutral  allp: ładne mi ciut. po turecku każdy usiądzie, a sprawdź, ile osób zrobi prawidłowy lotos :)
3 hrs
neutral  Gosia Kornijów: no właśnie, lotos to taki siad po turecku 'wywrócony na lewą stronę'. Nie to samo. (Ja zrobię ;)

  -> Dziękuję!
agree  allp: ano, tylko się zastanawiam, czy to jest zrozumiałe dla nie-joginów
3 hrs
  -> Dziękuję! Tak, pewnie masz rację. Z drugiej strony, jak powiesz 'kwiat lotosu' (a nie bardzo mozemy tu znaleźć jakiś turecki, grecki czy indiański odpowiednik), to też nie każdy będzie wiedział, o co chodzi.
