"nazywam sie" to introduce yourself.

Can someone confirm that if you use "nazywam sie" to introduce yourself then you should give your surname but if you use "JESTEM" then you should give your first name. Also how do you pronounce "jestem" ? Thanx

That's fairly normal. Jestem is easy to pronounce - yestem. Accent on the first syllable.

Nazywam się requires the surname, but you can also give both first and surname (the latter is just required, the former is optional).
"Jestem" means "I am" and you can give anything or anyone you are ;-)
If you want to give just your first name you can say: "Mam na imię ..." which means "My first name is...."

"PieknE or pieknA" ? Whats the difference and how to pronounce them. Also how do you pronounce "mam na imie" ? Thanks

Pronounce it like it looks, but the e is actually ę so it has more of an "en" sound (not exactly, but it's the easiest way to explain).

Hi, you can use ivona.com to check the pronunciation, enter whatever you wanna hear into the textbox on the right and hit play..

Piękne - singular neuter or plural non-personal masc.
Piękna - singular feminine

just the first e.. and A ending is feminine and the E is neuter
