dziekuje raz jeszcze

...are more {likely} to be given...

8) likely

1) (to) cos mi nie gra.
Nie wiem, moze jakies BrE wyrazenie. Ja bym tam wstawila (over).

engee?

w 1) jest 'to'
The British are taking to Indian food.

sorry, to samo w druga strone...The ethnic minorities are taking to British food.

hi terri:
perhaps my understanding of "taking to" is faulty; I understand it to (loosely) mean:
to like something, get accustomed to something

To me, the paragraph suggests the opposite. Ethnic food is replacing traditional British cuisine.

Weird to be confused by the usage of such a simple phrase. BrE?

yep, your right about that - 'take over' is the correct one

sorry,
tak, masz racje, tutaj powinno byc 'over'. Po prostu za szybko przeczytalam zdanie. Jak engee pisze, 'ethnic food is replacing British food' (no wonder as the British are only famous for 'fish and chips' and that is unlikely to be the height of haute cuisine)

To be honest, I did like fish and chips when I work on English soil some time ago :)

engee-
yes, but you would not have had the pleasure of eating fish and chips which were wrapped up in yesterday's newspapers. There was nothing better than dipping your greasy fingers into the chippy bag and pulling out a long fat chip which then miraculously found its way into your gaping mouth.
Oh, the pleasures of childhood.
