Powodzenia! Marek
Please note that Polish language is only acceptable in the Rozmowy Po Polsku forum or when explaining translations.
To byli prawdopodobnie tylko błędy typograficzne przecież się uczyłem regułów gramatyki polskiego już w szkole, ale jednak jestem bardzo wdzięczny za Twoje poprawienia:-)
Bearing the mods' warning in mind, I wish to thank you once again (in English) for kindly pointing out some basic bloopers which I shouldn't have made, being as I DID learn them in class, once upon a timeLOL
Hmm, sounds interesting! Zatem potrzebujesz jezyk angielski dla tej pracy:-)
Are you from a suburb (przedmiasto) of Poznań? I unfortunately only know Szczecin from first-hand knowledge. I'm happy to point out mistakes, as I trust you in turn won't hesitate to point out mine!
I learned Polish for mostly practical purposes. Whilst I have no family in Poland, I do have acquaintances (znajome) with whom I'm still regularly in touch. Frankly speaking, their English is so halting, I find it easier to simply talk to them in Polish.
I'm looking to learn Polish and I'm happy to join in with these guys to help you work on your English.
I'm an English guy living in England with a Polish girlfriend.

Lyzko - I'm impressed; I don't know anyone who isn't Polish whose Polish is so good that it's easier for them to speak to Poles in Polish (there're a lot of Poles in that sentence!).
Believe me, Danny boy, it's no big deal! Same in Germany! Soooooo many Germans insisted on speaking English with me until they heard my German. They never had to revert back to English:-)
For one thing, I took the trouble to read Goethe, Grass and Boell! The Germans I met, didn't even bother to read Stephen Crane, Hawthorne or Emily Dickenson. American "culture"??? 'Coulda knocked 'em over with a featherLOL
Well, I'm still impressed, Lyzko! I'm a long way off that level. I don't blame the Germans for not reading Dickinson, though; she's not my cup of tea either. As for Grass and Böll, I won't pretend I've heard of them - they sound more like nouns used by cricket commentators than authors' names, to my ear. What brought you to studying Polish?
I readily realize the mistake....(yes, it was a basic one, apologies)
@Danny,
As I said, I started running out of patience with the halting English of my friends from Rzeszow, and so I decided I'd better simply bone up on my Polish.
While I'm scarcely chastising the Germans I encountered for not knowing Emily Dickenson, if one doesn't know literature, how is one to (literally!!!) sound literate in the language they are speaking?? Once there was a higher standard in America. Even TV was once the gold-plate ring which we all strove to emulate, e.g. the late Walter Cronkite, Jack Paar etc..
See any of those guys on the horizon?? I sure don't!
Back to Polish, I always loved Jan Brzechwa's verse, used to play Chopin and was hooked on Polish cinema. So, there ya go:-)
If I wanted to say "So you need English for your job?" in Polish, my (admittedly basic) attempt would be:
"A więc potrzebujesz języka angielskiego w tej pracy?"
If I was rushing, I might say:
"Czy musisz mowić po angielsku być informatikiem?"
I'm sure I've made loads more errors than Lyzko - I just want to learn how to communicate with people in everyday speech- I don't use "therefore and "ergo" in my casual spoken English so I wouldn't want to try to in Polish.
Lyzko, you seem like more of a man of letters, so maybe you're looking to portray that in the Polish you use?
Mateusz, are you following- or have we bored you with Dickinson and cricket?
This forum is for those who are looking for someone to exchange details with in order to learn Polish language. It is NOT a message board, so if you ( and other posters ) want to chat, please use the PM function. Thanks.

Dzień dobry! I am living in Dallas, Texas and have been trying without luck to find a Polish tutor in my area. Although I would prefer to meet with someone one-on-one, I am very interested in trying some informal exchanges with native Poles and in turn would love to help anyone learn English!
My skills are very basic at this point (and I'm currently very intimidated by learning Polish grammar :/ ) but one day I would love to be fluent so when I visit my family in Poland I can speak with them in their language!
Please feel free to email me if you would like to try this out or if you know of anyone in the Dallas area willing to give personal lessons! My email is: mborninski@gmail
We could also arrange Skype as well!
PS: I'm hoping to get started with someone soon, and keep it up for as long as I need the help! I would like to be able to have a good vocabulary before my next trip in 2016 :)
I am an American learning Polish. I've been going to Polish school for the past 4 years. I wish I went when I was young because it would have been so much easier than it is now. I'm looking for someone to help me talk in Polish. I'm OK with written Polish and reading it (sometimes), but speaking it is a challenge. Vocabulary is hard as well, but grammar wise it makes sense to me the cases, well at least some times! I'm willing to help in learning English. Let me know if anyone is interested.
I am a norwegian girl trying to learn polish. I have been teaching myself for the last flour years, with a little help from friends and my partner. I know many words and phrases in polish, but I need to learn how to connect the words into sentences correctly. I also want to have correct form in verbs and how to bend according to male/female. I am very eager to learn, and little bit of a perfectionist when it comes to writing.
My english is quite good as I speak english daily at work, and lived a year in Scotland. But I can also offer norwegian as I am born and raised in Norway.
Being a perfectionist with an eager to learn a foreign language is the best mixture. :) I understand that Your partner is Polish/knows Polish well? I live in England for almost 10 years. My English is far from being perfect although i can communicate on a sophisticated level. Feel free to ask me any question about my native language on facebook: Zbigniew Barszczewski (could my name be any more Slavic? :) )

I don't know if this is cool, but I would like to learn some Polish, and will gladly teach English in exchange. I literally just want to watch Wiedzmin series, because it looks awesome as ****.
It is hard to teach someone on the internet, even using Skype. A good self-teaching course is better, though a good one is often not available. For me TV courses are the best. There was one broadcast on the TVP "Polonia" chanel, maybe it is still available on their website?
