Language / The Dative Case [62]

At the moment, Gumishu, I am using the oversimplified method of:
Verb + się = Instru/biernik
Negated by 'nie' or negative emotion 'bać się' = Gen/dopeł

Most other = Acc/Narz

Any other rules I should try to use????

Language / Dual language books..SUGGESTIONS? [10]

I am interested in looking a little more deeply into how cases work.

"Codziennie jadę do miasta samochódem" (samochód)
Daily I go to town bycar.

The above sentence is my first real understanding of the purpose and structure of using cases.
I just want to try and read more so any suggestions on where I can find fairly simple Polish will be great.

"Szukać governs the genitive case"

Can you expand on this.
The idea of certain verbs having a specific case governance.

Language / The Dative Case [62]

Merged:Which Case..'OWAĆ' verbs?

I have a list of 'OWAĆ' verbs which I must place in sentences.

Example KUPOWAĆ.
Chcę kupować biała koszula
(I want to buy a white shirt)
I suspect it would be:
Chcę kupować białą koszulę (accusative)

If anyone could help me understand which cases are used for basic sentences I would be eternally grateful.

Language / The verb "Piec" to bake [12]

What I mean is.....
Some verbs change like....
Rozumiem, Rozumiesz, Rozumie......
or
Mowię, Mowisz, Mowi.......

Then you have the unusual
Jestem, Jesteś, Jest.....

(Once we get to the plurals they all seem to keep the same pattern).

With PIEĆ I only had the infinitive and the first two forms (Ja, Ty) and I had no idea how the 3rd person singular (On, Ona, Ono) would form.

I assume there is a formula that I don't know.

Life / Wonderful Poland.......but the attitude of Polish people [150]

There is still racism in Britain. Often it is Pakistani's hating Indians or Bangladeshi's. Nigerians feuding against West Indians. Or the stereotypical White British authority figure (Police officer?) showing prejudice against a minority.

It's a lot more complex than White v Black.

Give Poland a few more years to adjust.
