5 Things You Should Know Before You Start Learning Polish | Super Easy Polish 47 

📢 On 4th March 2024, we're starting the ✨14-Day Vocabulary Challenge ✨ for our Discord Community 👉 www.easypolish.org/vocabulary-challenge (autopromocja)

In case it's helpful, I'm from the UK and I've been learning Polish for around 2.5 years now. I can understand everything in these videos, watch movies, read books and speak about any topic (although I make lots of grammatical errors!). I'm terrible at writing though. I studied on average 4 hours a day, but that's only: Reading, Watching, Listening to Podcasts, Talking to Polish family members, and making flashcards (3-10 new words a day). Another 2-3 years and I feel like I'd be at a C2 level, but that's just a guess!

I definitely found the process of declension and conjugation logical because I have studied Latin and Ancient Greek. So the complicated grammar is something I enjoy!

Gratulacje dla Pani Natalii z okazji uzyskania doktoratu z języka polskiego.🎉 Spotkaliśmy się w szkole językowej.

This was so helpful. And the English subtitles and Polish captions are indispensable. Thank you VERY much!

I live in Poland now,and I have learning Polish for around 1 year from this channel but my Polish is still very basic,.

Jestem z Rosji i uczę się pięknego polskiego, więc mogę iść na studia. dziękuję za te filmy, one mi pomagają❤️

Pochodzę z miasta Kurytyba, o którym dziewczyna opowiada w filmie. My mother spoke Polish, but she never taught me. And think, I only found out that she spoke Ukrainian, after I was 50 years old. Now she is with the Lord, and I want to learn some Polish in memory of her and also to get out of my comfort zone, because Polish is one of the most difficult languages ​​in the world and this is good for my cognitive ability.

I’m am American who’s been living in Poland with my husband for 15 months now. Here’s a brief overview of the language: - 3 genders (masculine, feminine, neuter) - 7 cases (nominative, accusative, genitive, instrumental, dative, locative, and vocative) - 3 tenses (past, present, future) - 2 aspects (perfect and imperfect) - 3 moods (indicative - statements, imperative - commands, and conditionals) It’s no wonder this is such a difficult, complicated, and yet beautiful language to learn. All of these factors are constantly rotating in your head as you speak the language, as you learn to think a different way (conveying a certain context to your listener) and always making sure the verbs and adjectives match the same gender as the noun. I’m nowhere near fluent but I’m happy I can at least now follow along with conversations.

Дякую за таке позитивне відео! Зразу з'явилась мотивація до вивчення польської мови!

I'm curious how fast all the Ukrainian refugees are picking up the language? It's coming up on the 1 year anniversary of the invasion and I was thinking about this the other day. I guess it would be immersion learning since they would be interacting with Poles every day in their jobs and in public. That would probably make learning faster. Poland has done a great thing by taking in so many refugees and welcoming them so warmly during such a terrible time. Much love & respect from Seattle, Washington USA 👍 🇵🇱/🇺🇦/🇺🇸

Cieszę się bardzo, że jesteście znowu zdrowe. Gratulacje dla Waszego nowego projektu! Tryzmam za Was kciuki.

Djękuję! I just started learning Polish and am an absolute beginner. This video was very reassuring!

Cześć, man na imię Mario, mieszkam w Kurytybie w Brazylii i ogladam wsziestikie z Easy Polish.

My grandmother spoke Polish and my town as child had a large Polish population wish I picked more up before they all got old and passed.

O, to jest fantastyczna inicjatywa! 😀👏 Gratulacje! Uczę się polskiego prawie od 2,5 lat i oczywiście brakuję mówienia po polsku. Chętnie wziąłbym udział w przyszłych edycjach waszych kursów konwersacyjnych, bo niestety teraz mam bardzo mało wolnego czasu 😖 Na szczęście, teraz mam szansę żeby trochę porozmawiać po polsku osobiście, bo rodzice jednego kolegi ze szkoły moich dzieci są Polakami! 🙂 Widzę, że nosicie już cieplejsze ubrania w tym odcinku! 🍁🍂 Pozdrawiam serdecznie!

I love all your videos as I think they're brilliant and very useful. I'd love them even more without the distraction of all those hand movements!

Co za fantastyczny pomysł 🥰 gratulacje na ten krok! Mam nadzieję że mam możliwości aby brać udział na ten kurs. Bardzo lubię wasze wideo!

Powodzenia z kursami! Na pewno się uda wszystko zrealizować na najwyższym poziomie 💪 Trzymam kciuki!

I'm going to learn Polish if it kills me. And, it very well may!!! peace and love, Polska Duma! Jestem Amerykaninem ale moja babcia jest Polką.

I am from Spain and I've been studying Russian for years. Watching this video and some others I can tell that would help me because I managed to figure out the meaning of many words and sometimes even some random sentence. I love Polish literature very very much (and art in general, so much creativity over there!), and for some reason in many places I've lived I've known many Polish people with which I got along very well. But I always thought it would be way too hard to learn Polish, even more than Russian. Now I've decided to start learning, and this channel looks perfect (and encouraging). In general I like slavic cultures and languages, and although I was more into Russian, the crazy situation with that country made me look more towards Poland, mostly now that for me it is easier to travel and live there. The big variety of "atmospheres" and the nature of Poland is a big plus too. Thank you!

I’m Asian (from the Philippines) and I’m not sure if I’ll continue but would you say there is an easier Slavic language that I can begin on before learning Polish? It’s a very interesting language and maybe it’s the fact that it’s so far away from me that makes it very intriguing to me.

I'd say the stereotype that she mentions about noun declensions being the most difficult part of Polish grammar is pretty correct. While there is a system behind the endings, it's a fairly complicated one, with a lot of things you just need to know. Also, beyond the cases, genders, and count, the endings also depend on how the word itself ends, so the endings multiply out even more. Saying "it's easy to learn" is just wrong. Something easy to learn in Polish grammar would be verb endings. Learning the noun endings is much more difficult than that. The only thing that might be harder than noun endings are verb forms for aspect, but that does not make learning noun endings easy.

my native language is franch and I do not find any difficulties in the pronounciation due to the same nasals et consonants I could say the same in polish...for me not difficult even to understand as starter

It works! Thanks a lot.

ja mowie z moj mama po polsku. my polish is not very good but i use it if i know it, and my mom is from poland so she helps if i dont know

Ojj trudno znaleźć kogoś mówiących po polsku w Kurytybie (na pewno znajdziesz wiele polskich nazwiska). Raczej w małych wioskach w stanie Parana można znaleźć

A co to znaczy "pokutuje"?

A co to znacy "untniecie sobie z nim"?

I’m 16 and I’m learning because my girlfriend and her family are Polish and I want to ask her to prom in Polish :]

w porządku

I just wanted to see this Video so I can say, that I hadn‘n an other choice 😂 And sorry, I‘m not that good at english.

can be memorized new words in Polish by polish word search for adults better for me

Ja już nie muszem

Polaków na świecie jest około 60 mil.

A kto to jest "Językowy nerd"?

4:06 - błąd, który popełnia większość. Natalio, nie Natalia. Używajmy wołacza 🙂.

I tried but no way.

Bóg z Wami i z Polską

Ja zwali

First and biggest error in thinking. You're all speaking POLISH. People who want to learn Polish who just speak English or a non Slavic language are not impressed. Any Polish person can speak Polish. It's your audience of NON SPEAKING Polish that you are trying to reach. Plus, you do not learn a language in months, to speak well it takes YEARS. Anyone who speaks several languages knows this.

Polski nie jest najtrudniejszy, albo naipiękniejszy język.

Russian just destroying my life i am happy with it))

Co?Jeszcze nie uczisz się polskiego?Chyba oszalałeś!

I dont like the sound of this language . It sounds a little silly

Why do they not put warning signs down to say they have mopped the floor . I nearly broke my neck so dangerous. This was at the train station, supermarkets etc so irresponsible of polish people

Very difficult language Country with no future and no meaning = Waste of time.

Hummm 🤔 Hello Polska Girls! Thanks for the informátion 😊 But... Why, do you speak so Fast?... Is a race competition? Are you in a hurry! 😮... All the Languages have a "Rythm".. 😊 But... You?...

Jak milo słuchać język polski, jest bardzo miły! Szanowne kobiety, jest dobre video, lecz trzeba mówić zwolnij. Czudzoziemiec ne rozumie. Jest za szybko dla osoby, ktora tylko zaczyna uczić śię. Proszę zwolnij!

Just signed up for the course! I'm so excited as I really need the structure of a class to learn a language effectively. I hope I wasn't too late to get placed! Dziękuję bardzo!

We lived with my grandparents until I was 5. My grandmother who was born in Poznań spoke to me in Polish..I answered her in English. We communicated well. I still remember many Polish words, and sometimes the Polish words for milk, bread, tea etc. pop into my head. I love Polish movies with subtitles to test myself.

I would definitely say that I would not have been able to get started until I learned the list of Polish kings.

my reason to start learning polish is that well- half of my family is from poland. my father, who doesn’t speak polish didn’t want to have children he couldn’t understand so my brother and i never got to learn polish, now i want to at least get a basic understanding of the language to feel like i can be more apart of the family when the start speaking at reunions, i also think my grandma would be very happy

You forgot that Polish could be much easier for Czech people, as Polish is by my opinion is third closest language to Czech behind Slovak. Pozdrawiam z Czech! :)

Przyjechałem z Ukrainy, dostałem pracę w polskiej drużynie, a miesiąc później zacząłem mówić trochę po polsku. A pół roku później mogłem już porozumiewać się po polsku na prostym poziomie. Nie uczyłem się jednak polskiego systematycznie.

Cześć, a co to znaczy "brawurowa decyzja''?

A kto to jest "partner"?

Sorry for that, you should have uploaded that video 5 years ago, now it's too late for me.

bardzo proszę dodać napisy z tłumaczeniem na język ukraiński. przecież są wiele osób z Ukrainy które nie znają angielskiego ale chcą się nauczyć polskiego.

If the majority of letters used in the Polish language were Slavic rather than alphabetic, it might have been harder for those learning the language to make up their minds.

zapomniala czechow i i tez narodow z balkanow :/

Dzenkue bardzo.

czemu nie bracie

I LOVE YOU 😀

Jak sie uczycie polskiego to najsamprzod I najsampierw pamietajcie : poszlem / przyszlem - bo bylo blisko ; poszedlem / przyszedlem - bo daleko 😉

NOT super easy Polish.

Why did the interviewer exclude people from Africa/Middle East in timelapse 3:14 to 3:30? is it because we don't have the capacity to learn Polish or we are not welcomed in Poland? I'm curious. No offense intended.
