Language / I need a set learning structure [5]

Hi there
Ive seen the many learning resources on this website as well as the other various sites Ive found online. They are great learning tools but knowing which to pick or more importantly what I should learn next is bothering me. A lot of the online lessons and even the book I bought has a lot of irrelevant information(in my opinion) for a basic conversation (although useful for a more advanced conversation.

So anyway my problem is at the moment,Im looking at one site trying to go through their guide but unsure on what to learn next.

Sorry Ive not given you a lot of information to go off,but I just wish I had a set structure for learning relevant material. I would say I know roughly somewhere between 50-75 words/phrases.

Dziękuję Bardzo

Language / "jesteś" - "you are" - Polish word for your? [17]

Hey there I was just wondering would this be "jesteś" or would that be "you are"?

The context Im thinking of is something like "your father" or something along the lines.

Thanks in advance :)

Language / "jesteś" - "you are" - Polish word for your? [17]

I suppose it is :). Its easy to take for granted being a native speaker is and how difficult it maybe for foreign people to learn (referring to both languages).

Also I must admit,Ive avoided the polish grammar in favour of learning useful phrases and words that would help me get by in basic conversation.

Language / "jesteś" - "you are" - Polish word for your? [17]

I appreciate both replies but at the moment the latter is what Ive been learning (masc,fem,neut).

Also can I ask,certain words are masculine,feminine or neutar right? Say I was talking about a girl but using a masculine word,would I have to change it?

Thanks for your your patience haha :D

Language / "jesteś" - "you are" - Polish word for your? [17]

Yeah I understand that :)

Im just thinking for example "piwo" which Im guessing is the neutar is quite often used as "piwa" regardless of the gender in subject,so thats what had me wonder.

Language / Czy jest pan or czy pan jest? [14]

So neither is wrong then?

Also If I removed pan or pani would it still make sense,surely they only apply to talking to adults?

benszymanski
but is "jesteś pijany" not "you're drunk"?
Which is more of a statement than a question,or is it meant to be said in the style of a question?

Language / Czy jest pan or czy pan jest? [14]

Ah I undersand that :)
So would "jesteś pijany" or "czy jesteś pijany" be more suitable to use with friends as opposed to adults or strangers?

Travel / Wroclaw to Lubin - the best way to get there? [14]

Yeah your most likely right,I'm just slightly nervous because this will be my first time traveling there and I'll be traveling on my own, so I obviously will stand out as I'm unfamiliar with everything.

I will check out the forum though,many thanks.
