Ep 117Polish Made Easy: “Grać” (Play) in Music, Sports, and Games
VIP members practice with flashcards https://app.learn-polish.pl/flashcards/xsgzb7qr9GKRRi5h4KY9 Live lessons for VIP members https://app.learn-polish.pl/videos/xsgzb7qr9GKRRi5h4KY9 Learn Polish Through Real Conversation: Weather, “Grać”, and Everyday Life Learning Polish doesn’t have to start with heavy grammar or long explanations. It can start with simple words, real questions, and normal conversation — exactly like in real life. In this lesson, we focused on a few very practical elements that beginners can use immediately: greetings talking about the weather the verb grać (to play) and two very useful words: podobno and kiedyś Let’s break it down. 1. Starting a conversation in Polish In real conversations — especially online or in group lessons — these phrases are everywhere: Dzień dobry. Good morning. Cześć. Hi. Czy mnie widać? Can you see me? Czy mnie słychać? Can you hear me? Czy jest okej? Is it OK? These are simple, but extremely useful. If you know these, you can already participate. 2. Small talk everyone uses: the weather In Poland, talking about the weather is not small talk — it’s survival 😄 Jest zimno. It’s cold. U nas jest bardzo zimno. It’s very cold where we are. Dzisiaj będzie minus dziesięć. Today it will be minus ten. And one key word appears all the time: Podobno Apparently / people say Podobno będzie minus dwadzieścia. Apparently it will be minus twenty. You don’t need to be sure — podobno is perfect when you’re not. 3. One powerful verb: grać (to play) With just one verb, you can talk about: music sports games hobbies Basic forms: Ja gram. – I play. Ty grasz. – You play. On / Ona gra. – He / She plays. 4. “Grać na” vs “Grać w” (very important) 🎸 Instruments → grać na Gram na gitarze. I play the guitar. Kimberly gra na pianinie. Kimberly plays the piano. ⚽ Sports & games → grać w Gram w piłkę nożną. I play football. Gram w szachy. I play chess. This distinction comes back again and again in Polish — learning it early helps a lot. 5. Talking about Sunday plans (real life Polish) This question is extremely common: Co robisz w niedzielę? What are you doing on Sunday? Possible simple answers: Idę do kościoła. – I’m going to church. Gram w kościele. – I play in church. Potem idę do domu. – Then I go home. Gram w szachy. – I play chess. Nothing fancy. Just real Polish. 6. Talking about the past: kiedyś Another very useful word: Kiedyś = used to / long ago Kiedyś grałem w piłkę. I used to play football. Teraz już nie gram. Now I don’t play anymore. This lets you talk about your life naturally, even with very basic Polish. Key takeaways If you remember only this, you’re doing great: grać na → instruments grać w → sports & games podobno → apparently / people say kiedyś → used to Weather talk = everyday Polish Simple sentences are enough to communicate Want to keep learning Polish?

Słyszałem, że podobno lubisz grać w piłkę. Podobno jutro będzie bardzo zimno. We also explain how podobno is used in real life — when you repeat something you heard, but you’re not completely sure it’s true.

So we’ll cover the basic stuff you see every day: gloves a scarf a jacket trousers and your backpack — because somehow you always carry half your life in it. We’ll keep it simple, practical, and repeat it until it sticks. What you’ll be able to say after this lesson You’ll be able to talk about: what you wear what you need what you forgot and what you should buy Stuff like: “I need gloves.” “I forgot my scarf.” “This jacket is too thin.” “It’s cold today, I’m wearing warm trousers.” That’s real Polish. Not fancy. Useful. Mini Listening Challenge (use this during the week) Here are a few short sentences. Listen for the key words: Dzisiaj jest zimno. Today it’s cold. Masz rękawiczki? Do you have gloves? Zapomniałem szalika. I forgot my scarf. W plecaku mam czapkę. In my backpack I have a hat. Main Takeaways 1) Listening is not optional If you want to speak, you need input. Listening is vital. No shortcuts. 2) Repetition is the secret weapon You don’t “learn” a word once. You hear it 20 times, then it becomes automatic you remember it. 3) Live lessons force progress When you show up live, your brain switches on. You stop overthinking and start understanding and improve your Polish. Vocabulary List we will practice Winter clothes rękawiczki – gloves szalik – scarf kurtka – jacket spodnie – trousers plecak – backpack czapka – hat buty – shoes/boots sweter – sweater płaszcz – coat Useful words zimno – cold ciepło – warm zakładać – to put on (clothes) nosić – to wear potrzebować – to need zapomnieć – to forget Polish Live Lessons So here’s the plan: Join the live lesson at 7 PM — Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday.

Ep 101Learn Polish While Talking About Autumn 🍂 | Easy Speaking Practice
🟠 1. Introduction – The Autumn Topic No dobra, dzisiaj rozmawiamy o jesieni... Alright, today we’re talking about autumn. The session opens with casual conversation practice about autumn (jesień) — a warm-up for students before moving to the speaking exam section. The teacher greets students (like Ania and Queen) and starts by asking basic questions: Czy lubisz jesień? — Do you like autumn? Kto lubi jesień? — Who likes autumn? Students share opinions, using simple Polish sentences such as Lubię jesień or Jesień jest fajna. The teacher encourages everyone to speak naturally, even mixing some English to make it easier for A2 learners. 🟠 2. Talking About Food and Comfort Zrobiłem fasolkę po bretońsku. Znasz? Bardzo dobre danie. I made “fasolka po bretońsku.” Do you know it? A very good dish. A natural transition happens — from weather and mood to food, a common conversational topic. Learners practice vocabulary about Polish dishes, especially fasolka po bretońsku (beans with bacon and sausage). Key phrases: Lubię fasolkę po bretońsku. — I like Breton-style beans. Z boczkiem, kiełbasą i sosem. — With bacon, sausage, and sauce. This helps learners express likes and preferences, a skill tested in oral exams. 🟠 3. The Weather and Feelings Zimno, chłodno, przyjemnie, komfortowo. Cold, chilly, pleasant, comfortable. Learners describe the weather and temperature, using adjectives to express how they feel: Jest zimno. — It’s cold. Jest przyjemnie. — It’s pleasant. Dla mnie jest chłodno, ale lubię to. — It’s chilly for me, but I like it. They discuss what kind of weather helps them work or think better, linking emotions with temperature — a typical oral exam theme about “how weather affects you.” 🟠 4. Communication Problems and Humor Komunikacja to jest duży problem. Communication is a big problem. Ania mentions a tough day at work and communication issues. The teacher humorously reacts — Ania, zwolnij ich od razu! (“Fire them immediately!”) — showing a conversational, real-life tone. The group laughs and stays in Polish conversation mode, which builds comfort for spontaneous speaking — exactly what oral exams test: reacting naturally. 🟠 5. Ghosts, Thermostats, and Everyday Life Vocabulary Kto bawił się termostatem? Może duch? Who played with the thermostat? Maybe a ghost? A funny everyday situation unfolds about someone changing the thermostat temperature at home. Learners joke about who’s guilty — dzieci? mąż? duch? — children, husband, or ghost. This part mixes domestic vocabulary (termostat, ogrzewanie, temperatura) with humor and cultural comments. It keeps students speaking freely, building fluency without pressure. 🟠 6. Beliefs, Seasons, and Colors Wierzysz w duchy? Lubię kolory jesieni. Do you believe in ghosts? I like autumn colors. The discussion moves into beliefs and preferences, touching on ghosts, good and bad spirits, and the beauty of autumn — czerwony, pomarańczowy, zielony. Students describe what they like about different seasons — a classic oral exam question: Lubię jesień, bo lubię kolory. Lubię wiosnę, bo wszystko jest zielone. 🟠 7. Pumpkin and Cooking Practice Lubię zupę dyniową z imbirem i mlekiem kokosowym. I like pumpkin soup with ginger and coconut milk. The topic shifts to cooking vocabulary and describing recipes — a strong B1 skill but practiced here at A2 level. They talk about ingredients (czosnek, cebula, przyprawy) and food preferences (lubię, nie lubię). Also, Queen mentions ekologiczna dynia (organic pumpkin) — useful modern vocabulary for oral exams about lifestyle and food. 🟠 8. Prices and Shopping Practice Co można kupić w Biedronce za 20 złotych? What can you buy in Biedronka for 20 zlotys? Students practice numbers and prices — perfect exam content. They discuss train tickets (bilet do Warszawy, do Gdańska) and shopping examples (chleb, marchewka, masło). Key grammar: Ile kosztuje...? — How much does it cost? Za 20 złotych można kupić... — For 20 zlotys you can buy... These are core oral exam patterns for Polish learners. 🟠 9. Stress, Relaxation, and Daily Routines Marchewka jest dobra na stres. A co jeszcze jest dobre na stres? Carrot is good for stress. What else is good for stress? The conversation turns psychological and personal. Students discuss how they deal with stress: Zakupy są dobre na stres. — Shopping helps with stress. Lubię jeździć pociągiem. — I like traveling by train. To mnie uspokaja. — It calms me down. The teacher mentions his father was a railway worker (kolejarz), adding a personal touch — again, strong oral practice material. 🟠 10. Cold Weather Habits and Cleaning Co robisz, gdy jest zimno? What do you do when it’s cold? Learners discuss routines and habits in winter, introducing verbs like sprzątać, gotować, pracować. Ania says cleaning helps when it’s cold; the teacher jokes he prefers dusić mięso (“to stew meat”) instead of cleaning. This gives practice for the reflexive structure co robisz, gdy... — important for speaking fluency. 🟠 11. Home

Ep 71Learning Polish Through Bzdury (Nonsense!)
7 day free trial https://app.learn-polish.pl/ Lesson notes https://www.learn-polish.pl/online-lessons/may-19th-2025 “Learning Polish Through Bzdury (Nonsense!)” Episode Description: In this episode, we're diving headfirst into bzdury — that wonderful Polish word for nonsense, silly talk, or things that just aren’t true. I’ll be saying a lot of bzdury today. Why? Because it’s fun. And because you can actually learn Polish this way! I start with the sentence: Japoński jest łatwy – “Japanese is easy.” Is that prawda (true) or fałsz (false)? Well... I think that’s bzdura — nonsense. Japanese isn’t easy. Japoński jest trudny. Polish is easy! (Or is that bzdura too?) Throughout the episode, I play with phrases like Lecę do Japonii – “I’m flying to Japan.” Am I really? Or is that just another silly statement? Listen and find out. You’ll hear questions like: Czy to prawda, czy to bzdura? – “Is it true, or is it nonsense?” And statements like: Nie mówię po japońsku – “I don’t speak Japanese.” Opowiadam bzdury – “I’m talking nonsense.” Zajmuję się bzdurami – “I’m busy with unimportant things.” We also talk about how people sometimes say bzdury when they’re tired, stressed, or joking — and how even innocent things like “Piwo jest zdrowe” (“Beer is healthy”) might be... well... total bzdura. You don’t need to be serious all the time to learn Polish. You can play with words, ask questions, and have fun with false statements — all while practicing useful vocabulary and phrases. So, join us, have a laugh, and ask yourself: Czy to jest prawda, czy to bzdura? Learn Polish in Poland https://www.learn-polish.pl
