Finally, the fourth lesson, and now we'll learn some survival skills I mean, how to buy food in Poland I highly recommend you to try to use some of these phrases under my post, because grammatical cases are the hardest thing in the polish language, and we'll learn something about two of them in this lesson And yeah, I'll add links to vocaroo and my former posts below
Imagine this situation - you are in small shop which ain't supermarket, and you see a random old woman who is the shopkeeper What to do? First, you say well us known "Dzień dobry", but what next? You should start with "Chciałbym kupić [...]" ("I'd like to buy"), and then you have to tell her what you want to buy (there is some food names below) Shopkeepers often asks "Czy to wszystko?" what means "Is it all (what you want to buy)?", or "Coś jeszcze" what means "(Do you want) something else?" "Tak" means "Yes" and "Nie" means "No" You can also ask "Ile to będzie kosztować?" - "How much it all costs?" (literary "How much will it all cost?") if you want to know how much you have to pay for your shopping
If you want to buy 3 eggs, you just say "Chciałbym kupić trzy jajka", but if you want to buy 3 packs of eggs, you have to say "Chciałbym kupić trzy opakowania jajek", you have to use classifier (e.g. pack, glass (of water), liter/litre (of milk), loaf (of bread))
I promised that we'll take a look on grammatical cases later, but now we have to bring up two of them, nominative (mianownik, nominativus in latin) and genetive (dopełniacz, genetivus in latin) If you use classifier, you have to choose genetive form (e.g. jajko (egg) - karton jajek (box of eggs)) For things in 2-4 quantity you use nominative plural, and for 5+ you use genetive plural In english genetive is made by adding 's at the end of word (e.g. Paul's room) and nominative is regular form of noun
Now we'll say a few words about polish currency Counterpart of american dollar is "złoty" (literary "golden", compare with dutch "gulden"), and equivalent of cent is "grosz" 1 - jeden złoty - jeden grosz 2 - dwa złote - dwa grosze 3 - trzy złote - trzy grosze 4 - cztery złote - cztery grosze 5 - pięć złotych - pięć groszy n>5 - n złotych - n groszy
Example: "Dzień dobry, chciałbym kupić pięć jajek" "Dzień dobry, czy to wszystko?" "Nie, chciałbym jeszcze kupić dwa kilo jabłek, ile to będzie kosztować?" ("jeszcze" means "also") "Dziesięć złotych, piętnaście groszy"

Jaxson Cox

Justin Campbell
Thanks I'd rather say that generals and shitposting threads like "ITT we hate leafs/burgers/finns/sb else", or "post qts from your cunt" are killing this board than split with /his/, it actually would be good idea, cause it has made more room for threads and separated two diffrent topics
Dominic Miller
Nah these was here since always. Its meme threads like shart in mart and >country >white are biggest cancer On this board i learned language and moved to UK couple of years ago so yes it can be very informational and useful as long you are trying so squize somwthing from it

>Pycкий язык oчeнь кpacный Кpacный means "red", the meaning "beautiful" is archaic. There is the same root word пpeкpacный which means"excellent".
If you want to say "beautiful" it is кpacивый.

I'm passionate about Poland and went on Erasmus there. I still go once a year or something. Also it's a great language on its own. It's complex but really satisfying to speak it correctly. I like how it sounds too. Finally, Polish women.
