Language / I want to write/read/speak fluent Polish! [60]

ok i also want to learn fluent polish and i do have a polish boyfriend and that is why am trying to learn but the thing is hes learning english and its hard for him to explain everything for me so am going to have to do myself for now.

Try this link. There are 54 'lessons' comprising nearly 200 sentences in Polish with their English translations. It's not interactive and there are no audio files but it will demonstrate to you how Polish sentences can be constructed.

Travel / Gdansk airport to the city [4]

Can anyone tell me the best way to travel from the airport to the city? I don't know whether to pre-arrange an airport transfer before we leave or just get a taxi from the airport. What's the best value for money?

Thanks.

Polonia / Is there any way to learn Polish by myself, in Turkey? [26]

This is probably the quickest solution to get you started with speech. This is available on Amazon and e-Bay but probably cheaper on e-Bay. There's some basic grammar at the back of the book. For a more thorough understanding of Polish grammar then I'd recommend either a book or the various online websites that provide such resources.

Language / "301 Polish Verbs" by Klara Janecki [5]

I've bought this book (Ja kupowałem ta ksiązka...) to help me conjugate the verbs. I'd no idea Polish grammar was so complicated. I have much work ahead of me...

Travel / 2-week vacation in Poland - it was awesome! Culture shock interesting. [29]

I'm going to Gdansk from Scotland in September with my partner and 6 year old daughter. Does anyone know what the cultural situation is like with children in pubs/bars. In the UK, children are generally only allowed in bars when we are all having a meal. Is it the same in Poland or is it more relaxed like in Spain where you can take kids with you almost anywhere?

Thanks in advance.
