Feedback / An efficient (accurate?) way to search these forums (or how to google-search this website) [16]

To make searching effective the keywords should be in the title because otherwise you get back too many search results by searching messages. At the moment I find it very time consuming and difficult to find the threads that I want, I have been using the method that you have suggested without much success.

Thanks.

Merged: Is is possible to have the current search engine improved to get a google search engine?

Is is possible to have the current search engine improved to get a google search engine? I know the answer to the google one, it will cost money that you don't have.

Or is there a fast way to search and find the thread that I am looking for that I don't know about?

Thanks

I think train stations are generally just poor anyway in most parts except some major cities.

Language / 'lubię, lubisz' - Infinitive [86]


Thanks Gumishu and Alligator.

Language / 'lubię, lubisz' - Infinitive [86]


This infinitive, can it be either perfective or imperfective?

For example:

Muszę przygotować się .........................
Muszę przygotowywać się .........................

Are they both correct?

Language / Polish Conditional - if you would.. [24]

Perfective or imperfective after the condtional form?

Chciałbym mówić(imperfective verb) dobrze po polsku.

Chciałbym spróbować(perfective verb).

From this example it looks like you can use both, the same as you could use both imperfective or perfective verbs to describe something in that you will do in the future. Am I right or close enough?

thanks

Can people tell me what techniques that they use to learn the Polish language so that they don't forget what they have learnt?

Are there techniques for remembering specific to language learning?

Any ideas on how to learn perfective and imperfective verbs? I learnt some of them today but I know that in a weeks time I will forget them, even if I learn them again next week I will forget them again, how can I remember them forever?

Language / Perfective vs Imperfective - grammar [150]

Thanks everyone, this is going to take some serious thinking :-)

Language / Perfective vs Imperfective - grammar [150]

I have a similiar problem now with:

This seems to be the case:

Can I be bold and ask how the grammar is different? :-)

Language / Perfective vs Imperfective - grammar [150]

From what I can see iść is sometimes perfective wordreference.com/plen/chodzić and sometimes imperfective depending on what you are trying to say wordreference.com/plen/pójść

Language / Perfective vs Imperfective - grammar [150]

Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong here please? I have 2 perfectives and only one imperfective.

iść, perfective
chodzić, imperfective
pójść, perfective

Idę na zakupy.
Chodziłem po górach.

Pójdę ????????
What is the imperfective version?

Language / Having difficulties to speak in Polish... how to improve my speaking? [19]

I tried this a few times but I found it difficult to have some kind of a structure or plan when talking with the other person, there was no purpose to our conversations.......... I hope that you know what I am talking about.

How did you organise the time/what to learn with the other person?

Has anyone ever tried to speak to another learner of Polish? Is there any advantage to this? I am sure there are disadvantages because you are not communicating with a native speaker etc.
