I've never understood the need of some (most) translators to find equivalents for every word. Particularly concerning food. I've seen pierogi translated as 'dumplings' and 'ravioli'. This is absolutely absurd as the foods are entirely different.
Pierogi should be translated as 'pierogi'.
That way speakers of English will learn a little about Poland.

Yes, Wendy, this usufruct thing is used as an equivalent, but still nobody knows what it is as it is a typically Polish (communist) invention.
Property buyers need a lot of explaining anyway as the usufruct is still meaningless for them.

the english traduction is
hereditary tenure or
hereditary lease
and it's million miles from being a typical Polish (communist) invention...

great idea!
użytkowanie wieczyste
it's a tough one, I always get a blank look ;)
Lidia, in the bank I worked for they used something like "perpetual usufruct". I think we need Warren to say whether it is orlright.

"bedtime story" is the closest I think.

I don't know what 'compote' is.
I've drunk kompot, however.

Fair enough.
But I had never heard of 'compote' before I came to Poland.
And if I had never heard of it, the same is presumably true for a number of other English people.

the idea of Emphyteutic lease was yet in use in the roman law so I suppose that's before Poland and before polish communist...
the lenght of this Emphyteutic lease is usually 99 years but can go to 999 years and then we use the notion of hereditary lease.
And roman law was written in latin, the actual french is a mix of latin and Gaulish language so yes it's a traduction of french even the word emphyteutic is from greek plant.
