Language / What is your biggest problem with Polish language? [158]

@Lyzko
[...] I still find difficult is knowing what is considered perfective or completed action.

Could you please, give a few examples of such difficulties.
I've always considered the aspect of the verb (dokonany vs niedokonany) as the easiest part of the language.

Language / "Co ty" - communication and expressions [26]

@dreamer19

Hi
"Co ty" or extended version "No co ty" in a communication you described, is a natural way of:
1. confirming that he is listening
2. expressing that her story is interesting and he is willing to hear more.

It's not rude but it is very informal.

Language / Polish pronounciation of: cz vs ć/ci, sz vs ś/si, ź vs ż and dż vs dź/dzi - how to make these sound diff [79]

@Ziutek

Yes, you're right. Both versions contain the d͡ʑ sound. But I gave these examples to illustrate my opposite opinion
to the one given by Chemikiem that "The letter combination 'dzi' is pronounced in the same way as the digraph ' dź '".
If the above sentence was true, there should be no difference in the way you pronounce "zdradźmy" and "zdradzimy".

@Chemikiem

źdźbło = blade of grass

Even if 'dzi' and 'dź' are in the middle of the word their pronunciation is and should be different.
The following pairs have different meaning and pronunciation yet very similar structure.

1. gładźcie, budźcie, wadźcie, gnieźdźmy, pogardźmy, zdradźmy
2. gładzicie, budzicie, wadzicie, gnieździmy, pogardzimy, zdradzimy
