"I like red meat."

Translation: Lubię czerwone mięso.

[oldnicholas]

"Mięso" definitely doesn't refer to fish and usually not to poultry. i.e. it means "red meat" in English.

[esposch]

I disagree. Depending on context, it can refer either to the flesh of any, generic animal ("I wonder what wombat meat tastes like") or exclusively red meat ("Meat and three veg").

[oldnicholas]

I'm not sure who/what you disagree with. My point was that "red meat" does not mean meat that is bright red in colour which is what "czerwone mięso" means. I obviously agree that red meat is a kind of meat. In my experience "mięso" is usually used to refer to pork, beef, veal, mutton, venison, boar, i.e. "red meat" in English. I assume that everyone agrees with me that "ryba to nie mięso" in Polish, right?

[esposch]

Apologies. I think I typed this response late at night (which would explain why it's not an actual reply) and assumed you were talking about the English word "meat". Which, again, not sure how I managed to do since it clearly says "mięso" in your post.

[oldnicholas]

So all the advice about not studying (e.g. on Duolingo) late at night is true! :D

[esposch]

Ahaha, it's better than nothing. Just.

Drób to nie mięso?

[oldnicholas]

Napisałem "usually" przy "drobiu". Polak (chyba) może mówić "Wolę drób od mięsa," prawda? Po angielsku "I prefer poultry to meat," jest nonsensem. Trzeba mówić, "I prefer poultry to red meat."

[TDCy5]

Why "podoba mi się czerwone mięso" isn't accepted?

[Jellei]

It's quite a strange thing to say, it means that you generally think that red meat looks good...
