Word for the Travel Wise (11/14/06)

Okay, hmm… I went to check out the Poland tourism site to see if there was any kind of cool event to tie into the word piece tonight and the first thing that pops out at me is the emergency hotline for travelers. What’s that all about Poland? Is something going on over there the curious vagabond needs to know about? For those who get stuck or in a bind while in Poland, this word is for you…

Today’s word is a Polish word used in Poland:

pomoc! – help!
