Language / Are the context of these Polish sentences correct? [101]

yes i do have phrases i know by heart, but conversation is the best way, the more yopu speak it the better you will get. and as you know cases and tenses are you worse enemy. and then add to that the word order, and you have a mix of confusion. well!....i do.

upto now my communication skill can only go up.

i hear what you are saying vincent, but i do have conversation with my cousin, so my polish as broken as i t may be is working and my cousin does understand me, she even says my polish is good, maybe not the grammar. i'm sure you will agree that polish is a hard language to learn anyway. what i seek from this site which i have achieved lots of times, is help in getting the further ubderstanding of the prts of grammar that confuse me. someone once told me to understand the past and future tenses, which i do, but your word order is the most confusing issue yet.

i talk to my cousin evry week more sometimes, so i can converse. there are a few holes in my understanding. is that any clearer.

while i knd of understand, all i hear is grammar grammar. i am talking to my polish cousin now! so the grammar must follow later as i get better. i cant say to my cousin i cant talk to you till i learn my grammar. my issue is not so much the grammar ,which i agree with you, but is the word order of your language. a typical example is;

zwierzę się mojej mamie z moich problemów
I’ll entrust my problems to my mom
to me this is wrong, i would have said;
będę zwierzę mój problemu do mój mamo

would you not understand what i wanted to say.
you could come to england with poor grammar, and say' me toalet' the grammar is all wrong, but i would know you wanted to go to the toilet or you wanted to know where the toilet was.

am i making any sense.

i think you misundertsood me, what i was trying to say was if you were a pole who had little knowledge of grammer as i do, you would probably have traslated;

Tak naprawdę ona jest starsza, chociaż nie wygląda
into
yes really she is older although not looks
which does sound nonsense, but a brit would be able to decypher what you wanted to say.

i do agree with you contrary argument though, a good book i havent found yet
chaza

Language / Are the context of these Polish sentences correct? [101]

yes i undertsand what you want to say, but as everyone is tel;ling me, its nonesense, but it is undertsandable that is the point, i have to learn to put some kind of sentense together, before i get a grasp on the grrammer. so if i had said

Czy to tylko ja tego nie rozumiem. some one would have said thats rubish. but its a start on the road to speaking the language correctly, dont you agree.

i do follow books but i am more confused by them, they pose more question for me then they do answering my grammer problems

thanks again zetigrek
i have attempted to do my homework as you said, but as you can see it eludes me somewhat. i feel like giving up at the moment, ill keep plugging at it for now. i still dont have the grasp of our recent posting about bedziesz, it stiill doesn't register. many have said about direct translation which i undertsand, so!

translate from polish to eglish directly as i do ;

will you be seeing me tonight
can you come over here
is it me that doesn't understand

i am curious a to how it would look at my end if i was polish and i translated them directly.

i am searching and reading all i get my hands on with this grammer thing, but it just dont seem to reach the parts that it should. no one is more frustrated than me, when i think i it , i get told i dont. i just dont get it.

thanks seanus for your comments of encouragment, its a shame others dont do the same, its hard enough learning, trying to grasp it is something else. i put a lot of time into this and want to improve, but zed's comments fall short of that.

BTW zed, try to be supportive, dont make silly comments. we are not all linquistic experts.

News / Poland could emerge as new European and world power. If? [116]

arien you are right,people have such short memories, if the vatican is god channel of communication on earth, then i have to get me another god. as you have said, they look after their own interests, the sex scandals, where were the interests of those children, the rat line, where were ther interests of justice after what the nazis did to the poles. stop you worship to these two faces charlatans then see how they react. as well as being the biggest land owner in the world, when does the vatican put their hands in their pockets to help, even their own, they dont.

the pope is a faud, lets open up their archives and scrutinise what has been going over the last 70yrs and you will be shocked.

4. We'll visit you tomorrow. > jutro cię odwiedzimy (bedziemy cię odwiedz jutro)
5. that's nice of you > to miło z twojej strony (że jest miło twojej)
6. the door is closed > drzwi są zamknięte (drzwiczki jest zamknięty)
7. When do you start your journey? > Kiedy zaczyna pan podróż? / Kiedy pan wyjeżdża? (kiedy pan zaczyna twoj podróź)
8. on holiday / on vacation > na urlopie
9. On the floor above. > Na wyższym piętrze. (na podłoga ponad)
10. only today / not until today > dopiero dzisiaj
11. to be 5 metres wide > mieć pięć metrów szerokości (być pięc metrów szeroki)
12. to live in the country > mieszkać na wsi
13. to receive a letter > dostać list (otrzymać list)
14. to speak softly > cicho mówić (mówić miększy)
15. You're going in the wrong direction. > Idzie pan w złym kierunku.idziesz pan w zły kierunek)

Language / Are the context of these Polish sentences correct? [101]

yes and i speak to my cousin on skype very often, all in polish, so while i agree on starting small and working up, i am talking to a pole so my sentence structure is a work in progress. which is why this site does help a lot. i have come on quite a lot since i first started 15 mnth ago. all help is greatly appriciated.

btw; was my post 40# accurate

thanks zetigret
can i take you back to my first post, do you agree with others that the sentenses make no sense at all, i thought i did ok, not on all i forgot some words.

chaza

Language / Are the context of these Polish sentences correct? [101]

thank for that zetigret,
what you said about the english questions makes a lot of sense to me now, also as i have been told its a case of just speaking. i do make the common mistake of direct translation, because i want to say something, so i translate it, also wrongly, but i do injest all the comments and i am grateful to youall.

one comment though zetigret,
with your sentense,
Musisz jutro wstawać wcześnie? - Do you have to get up early tommarow?
can it not be musisz wstawać wcześnie jutro, which read better to me.

Language / Are the context of these Polish sentences correct? [101]

im a bit confused here, some say that it shuld be 'co' and other say it should be 'kiedy'. i realise my grammer is crap, the post that pat gave was fine and made sense to me, i'm sure i will get better at it, but was it understandable, i dont seem to get the grasp of the perfwect grammer yet, but i thought this time i came close to being undertsood.

im not familiar with the word toczące. and what is the difference between chcę and zechcę
im confused with przepływające, my dictionary says it means to swim up?
