Spruce mnie rozłożył na łopatki - nie wiem czy w to wierzyć ;-). https://youtube/watch?v=p-0lIw9WMz4 A few interesting things about Poland and Polish history, Polish influences on other countries - unfortunately in Polish - for example, that the word spruce in English was formed out of z Prus which means from Prussia, and phonetically sounds exactly like spruce (true! :-) ). They say that when Polish people used to trade with England, English people really liked this tree, so they asked what is its name, and Poles answered its from Prussia - z Prus - spruce. Not sure if I believe in that, but its so funny, and I actually already found online etymology dictionaries that confirm this or similar versions ;-).
