or, for the toned-down polish version ( since the equivalent for muthaf*cka@s is apparently very insulting in polish, )

Good luck, Mask!!

Sorry to crash your thread, but I am seriously thinking of taking up Polish in Autumn. I'm being realistic, and just want to make a bit of an effort for my Polish friends and business contacts.

This is going to seem like a daft question, but how do you actually "learn" a language. By the time I was 20, I was fluent in a couple of languages, but don't really recall actively learning them - does that make sense? I just feel like I've always been able to speak French for instance (even though I didn't start learning until I was 11).

Now that I'm a bit older (I'll be 33 next week... woooo hoooo!!), it's going to be tougher.

Anyone got any tips and techniques for learning Polish?

I did dip my toe in Russian when I was 18, but gave up as I found it too complicated. But then again, I don't know if I really took it seriously and put the effort in at 18.

Good luck to you as well, as for trying to learn Polish, I wrote out a silly short story in plain english and had it translated (on this forum) then learned that, and now I spend time re-writing it in the first person, second, person, etc, past tense, present tense, future tense, etc.

Polish actually isn't that difficult since there are apparently just three tenses, and apparently, there is some regularity to the way verbs are conjugated - who would have thought?!

Well, I'm falling behind a bit on my studies actually, so time to get back on track -

Miranda might have a point there. Time to hit the books masks98.

Good luck mate.

I gave up learning polish after trying for full 3 years :( Now I use only body language to communicate with polish people :D

Three years?! Well If I succeed I'll give you some polish lessons!

That would be great :D

I even took 5 months polish lessons, but it turned out a big time failure since we all bl00dy foreigners in that group started improving our spoken english rather than trying to speak polish :D

I'd really like to know how you are progressing masks. I'm learning Polish as well, but I don't have a time limit either. You can be my inspiration. =p
