There is many different goral dialects.
This what is usualy called by it, it is podhalanian dialect - also present on this video.
Here example - but I never know, if such examples are a version for ceprs (non goral folk) becasue it is too understandable...
When some Gorals in live are speaking, sometimes it is hardly understandable.
Greater Poles are the overseeers of Lesser Poles. :p
Appearance of the Dobrzynskis, a Polish clan in Lithuania, which originated from Dobrzyń Land:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dobrzyń_Land
"The Dobrzynskis were distinguished among their Lithuanian brethren by their language and likewise by their stature and their appearance. They were of pure Polish blood, and all had black hair, high foreheads, dark eyes, and aquiline noses. From the land of Dobrzyn they derived their ancient family, and, though they had been settled in Lithuania for four hundred years, they preserved their Masovian speech and customs."

People from Dobrzyń Land are a mix of Greater Polish and Masovian (= Mazur) influences:

Poles are people who are late converts to Christianity.
To understand this, just note that Frank people started to convert after the baptism of their king Clovis in 498 AD. With Poles it's 500 years later and more for some other people who are modern Poles' ancestors.
966 AD the 'South Poles, were officially Catholicized by royal wedding however the ancestors of North Poles (Slavic Wends) were Pagans. These people were forcibly Christianized after the Wendish Crusade of 1147 organized by Saxons. It's interesting a people converted by force are so religious, even more so than the converters, as of today.
