    We are all fish; lobefinned fish to be precise. It's just that we have been (mostly) living on land the last 370 millon years.

      Look! This has -2 as of today. I'm sure that downvoting this completely factual comment will change how we came to be here...

      It's also a simple fact that a cod fish is more closely related to a human than to a shark. Does that then mean that we shouldn't call sharks fish?

            There's a story here behind this one and I'm not sure if I want to know it.

              Sometimes I wonder who comes up with these sentances...

              I think the intention is just to differentiate between “jestem” and “jem”.

                Well, "Nie jem ryby" (I am not eating fish) takes a different case anyway ;)

                  Back when I wrestled, a "fish" was a wrestler who reached back from the opposite side. In Polish, does fish carry any other meaning besides the literal one?
