Language / "someday" / "kiedys" - Confirming some spelling and forms [11]

Thanks...just wasn't sure if stand alone words changed form compared to being used in a sentence. You never know with Polish ;)

Which of those two "somedays" is more common or better?

Language / "someday" / "kiedys" - Confirming some spelling and forms [11]

So if you wanted to say So if someone asked me when and I want to say "Someday" it is "kiedyś będę bogaty"? Not just "kiedyś"

And regarding Sunday I would just reply with "Sunday" not an entire sentence about where and when...so is the form still as your example sentence when the word is alone?

Language / IRC channel for Polish language learning? [3]

Well the way posts here get picked off by some bored moderator I can't be sure if someone had an answer that I would see it posted before it gets tossed.

It doesn't have to be IRC...I was just looking for a live chat with Poles who spoke some English so you could find someone to chat with at any time. Forums are too slow and impossible to have a real conversation in due to this delay.

Most modern nations have "right to return" laws. As long as you can establish you are a citizen you cannot by law be denied entry. Can't say this is fact but it is generally the case. Wouldn't count on it in Angola or some other 3rd world nations but surely Poland has such a law.

Language / Correct form of months when writing date? [22]

OK it has come to my attention that the declination changes depending on the day's date.

So for the 20th of november is it still "20 listopada 2011"?

Also is 25th of May still "25 maja"?

Lastly 7th of June....still 7 czerwca?

Nevermind....I was mistaken. Thanks again.

Language / Correct form of months when writing date? [22]

Sorry to drag this on but....do Poles ever abbreviate months to 3 letter form like calling November "NOV or nov" etc?

Ie Listopad/a would become LIS like 10 LIS 2011 or since capitalizing seems out 10 lis 2011?

I was too slow...thanks for confirming. Phew that was a lot for some dates. I am screwed if I try anything more complicated.

Again no dots, dashes or commas?

10-Listopada-2011 or 10.Listopada.2011 etc? Is 10 Listopada 2011 the normal way no matter if in type or handwriting?

Language / Correct form of months when writing date? [22]

Sure I understand the format and the Polish way is more logical going from smallest to largest unit. I just wondered when you were writing out the words for the months ie "Listopad" as part of the date rather than using "11" if you need to change the form as well and you fixed that for me in your first post.

So 10 Listopada 2011 is the format I will use. It would be the same without the year (say you just wanted to write "10 Listopada") correct? And there are not any dots or commas in there usually?

Geez such a small thing can be so stupidly complicated with language differences.

Thanks for the fast reply ;)

Other than putting the month before the day (how it is done in America) what is wrong with Listopad/Listopada 10,2011? Is its incorrect grammar that way or just not the typical Polish format?
