Since we're on the subject, it's paczek (singular) and paczki (plural) -- no "s" neeeded. Or perhaps even more correctly, pa˛czek and pa˛czki.

No f'n sh*t.
I live near the Polish National Alliance and plan on getting plural paczek "while they last" irregardless of weather they use an ~s~ at the end or knot.

No, but the other thing that springs to my attention is a spelling error - it is my feeling that the grammar analists are a different breed from the spelling gnomes.As a mattra-fact, Pie Face, you are beginning to look almost human. - Barbara Bennett

I am definitely both, but I am generally restrained and keep most of my eye rolling and tsk-ing to myself.
Look! A free paczek!
