What I hear in my polish class at school: dzień dobry. Jak się masz? What I hear in videos where people speak at normal speed: jdwś hdywffdił gstrsi hstsdd twybdji
"jak sie masz" phrase is very official and what I call the book language. It is being used mostly by foreignes learning polish. In nowadays Poles hardly ever use this phrase in daily life. Instead you can hear 'co słychać' and that is what I recommend to learn and use.
I'm from America and I really want to be bilingual and I have to say thank you because watching your videos is really helping me learn Polish! This channel is great!
I am from America, I have been studying polish for over a year and your videos are great. It breaks the typical educational videos and allows me to listen to native speakers. As soon as I started to feel knowledgeable I went to Gdansk and my brain melted with the first person I started a conversation with, I felt like I knew nothing lol.

I have studied little Japanese for a long time ago, vocabulary is the most difficult part for me. When I start learning Polish, grammar is so complicated but I like it :) Dziękuję bardzo.
I think in Poland we like to know the purpose of our conversations, so whenever foreigners want to talk to a Pole, they should say straight ahead that they want to make a conversation in Polish because they want to practice language skills, or because they don't have anyone in Poland to talk to, or that they just want to spend some time in nice atmosphere, getting to know someone. Maybe it sounds too straight forward but I'm sure most Poles will be glad that a foreigner actually wants to speak their language, so they will happily make a conversation. It even helps to start a conversation because then there is the subject of why you want to learn Polish, etc., so it's a good opener.
If it's hard to learn Polish for people like me, who knows Ukrainian, language which is very closely related to Polish culturally and semantically, I just can't imagine level of struggle required from English-speaking people to learn Polish. Don't you guys give up, knowing languages is wonderful skill.
I'm doing ok! It helps that polish has predictable spelling unlike english and is phonetic (you have to know their alphabet tho, cause the 'c' is pronounced as 'ts' like in 'pits')
My mother tongue is Russian, as the presenter started speaking, I was happy I could understand 50 percent of the talk without ever trying to learn Polish. But when other guys started talking, my joy disappeared :D They're speaking reeeeally fast
As a speaker of both polish and English, I just want to encouage people who want to learn Polish, to go for it. It really is a great language. And no, I am not native to Poland, I was born in America. I speak more at the pace of the guy at 3:46.
Good video! My brother studied languages at the Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center in California. The pace of study was intense. Students had to master the language course in 36-64 weeks. Psychologically it was very difficult, but fortunately he was helped by Yuriy Ivantsiv's book "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign languages”. The book " Polyglot Notes" became a desk book for my brother, because it has answers to all the problems that any student of a foreign language has to face. Thanks to the author of the channel for this interesting video! Good luck to everyone who studies a foreign language and wants to realize their full potential!
Well, @@easypolish7300, where shall I begin? Just kidding (actually I'm not). Many things are hard about learning Polish, but the subject of this video, small talk in Poland, is one of them. Polish do not engage easily in smalltalk with people they don't know. How about with foreigners? How about foreigners who have trouble with speaking their language? Polish people don't really know how to deal with someone who speaks Polish badly. Even if they speak English or German themselves, they are not inclined to make smalltalk and they will certainly not correct your Polish, because that is rude! Polish people in general (in my experience), even young people, are very formal and polite and shy. Imagine the culture clash when they meet a very direct, loud talking, acting too familiar, speaking Polish very badly, Dutch man! Hahaha!
@@franek_izerski That's true what you said 😅 We are quite formal and shy when it comes to dealing with strangers 🤷 How did you end up in Poland? Let me guess - you have Polish wife 🤔
Even the people on the video seemed uncomfortable to talk and answer the questions lol, Polish people may look cold and loners but they are so nice and warm once you get to know them, I have met only good people since I moved here.
I grew up listening to my Mom speak Polish but was never taught to speak it. It’s interesting seeing all the words that I’m familiar with, but never knew the meaning of. Really cool! Maybe I’ll learn something. ☺️
I absolutely love this video and it’s a fantastic lesson. I’m amused, however, by the fact that every interview in this video is what we would call small talk. People were saying there’s no such thing as Polish small talk while they were literally engaging in it. 😂
This video actually surprised me, I’m a Polish American who hasn’t been to Poland since I was 4 so sometimes I call some family members to have small talk with them, now that I think of it they prob think I’m strange😭
no youre fine to do that, we just dont generally talk with strangers when theres no need to. calling your family to talk once in a while is definitely appreciated
Po polsku small talk można przetłumaczyć jako lużna / lekka/ rozmowa i jednak istnieje tylko ,że u trochę starszych osób , zwłaszcza na wakacjach a zwłaszcza wczasach gdzie ludzie się nie znają , spotykają przed posiłkami lub wieczorem przy ognisku .Wtedy małżeństwa właśnie uprawiają " lużną rozmowę "
Very few people anywhere talk to strangers. Everyone is on their phone in their own world. Small talk happens when you may be together with people or family at a gathering where there is a mutual acquaintance, and you have to be polite and make ‘small talk’ or light conversation. (US perspective)

I'm actually trilingual, and while I already have three languages on native level, I'm always amazed at any other language I don't know. I remember when I didn't know english, back in my childhood, and this is how it sounded to me back in the day. Now I understand it on a native level, and it's really shocking how my perspective about it changed. I wonder if I could ever learn a language like polish, sounds fun to speak!
it is fun to speak, its a hard language but can be way easier if you already know another slavic language or in your case already have those neural pathways formed from learning those 3, if you ever want to i say go for it
First time i heard about polish country bcoz of my ex and i can say that their a nice people they are also hospitable handsome Gentleman 🥰 and their words so relaxing to listen for me 💕 it makes me fall sleep, like when my ex polish boyfriend talking with his family i miss him..

The cultural differences and use of language makes learning Polish so much harder for English speakers. I believe in order to be proficient in a Slovak language, you need to emmerse yourself into it.

Well, the impression that I had of Polish people so far here in Canada was that you guys are very talkative. All of the Polish ppl that I've encountered here would talk more than Canadians would in a "small talk" situation.
I'm Ukrainian, speak Russian but my mom's lineage is from Poland...all these comment saying they are speaking fast when I am used to this pace! I finally know why my family speaks so fast!🤣 Trying to reverse engineer my lineage and learn Polish again.
польска на українську дуже схожа, я не можу зрозуміти всіх слів, що вони кажуть, але багато з них, якщо не наближені до українських, то я їх розумію, для українців польска повинна бути доволі легкою для вивчення.
I co tu jest dziwnego? Podobno język polski na śląsku jest bardziej polski niż w innych częściach Polski. A o gwarze mówić nie będę, bo w Polsce mamy wiele gwar, ale ślązacy, którzy są porównywalni z warszawką jeśli chodzi o wielkie mniemanie o sobie nie ogarniają tego.
@@9Ephemeral_Star8 dziękuję za komentarz. Ślązacy myślą, że są niewiadomo jak inni, ale patrząc w porównaniu do innych gwar polskich, to taki wielkopolski się więcej różni xD
It's wort to notice that Polish used by those people in the video has some significant local features, as that part of Poland has strong self-identity.
they do have small talk they just thought what small talk to us was talking on the bus with strangers and having deep ass convos. small talk is finding common ground with someone you dot really know through the context of the situation. ex. being at the vet and talking about their dogs as the one guys said.
I noticed several times people beginning sentences with "Znaczy, ..." (0:36, 4:04, 4:55) which isn't something I've seen much before. Is it just me, or do they always pronounce the word with the beginning ("zna-") kind of clipped off, so it sounds just like "czy"? Also is this expression common across Poland or just Katowice?
Hi apscis_! 🙂 This expression is characteristic for the spoken language and it's very often more like a filler word that is not necessary for the sentence. It might sound like people say just the "-czy" ending when they speak very fast, but the word itself comes from the phrase "To znaczy..."("It means..."), which in English would be more like "I mean...", so people often use it either when they just start a sentence and they are still organizing their answer or when they want to clarify with more details something that they've just said before. If you'd like to use it, you should try to pronounce the whole word "znaczy", rather than just the ending. Is it popular in other regions from Poland? 🤔 I can only speak for Katowice and here I hear people saying it very often. Although, I hope maybe someone else from a different part of Poland will see this comment and share if people also talk like this in other regions 😉
It's a filler word, only used colloquially. Do not use it in writing, or formal speeches. It literally means: "I mean, ..." - like Justyna mentioned above. In everyday speech, Poles will eat some sounds, when they speak fast, but we still hear the distinction between znaczy and czy. Don't try to use "Czy", we immediately hear the difference, even if the "znaczy" is reduced/rushed at the beginning.
“Znaczy” is like a habit, filler word in translation to English it’s “I mean...”. And it does exist in the entire country of Poland. Don’t mess it up with “czy” though because “czy” is used to ask questions. Sometimes in informal speaking people can shorten the word in order to say their thoughts quicker, but that’s only in common speaking never in writing, but I personally think that polish is actually about strictly saying all the letters in the word, not like in French - where you don’t say the endings .
they speak very spontanously here and they are not prepared so their sentence structure and vocabulary is hm... not so good in the first half at least :)
i think we have something like small talk in Poland, but it's mostly about politics, we like to complain with each other, even strange to us, or about something what just happened, for example a car hit a babcia, or a helicopter is flying, stuff like that. My old neighbours even say that they own dogs only to talk to other people with dogs xD. Yeah, we talk with people we have something in common, like dog for example, or just "dzień dobry", we usually talk to neighbours, but not to strangers if we don't have anything in kind to say.
It's possible, but older generation has more problems with english. It's better to try in bigger cities and with people youger than 40-50. But yeah, it's possible. And don't be discouraged if people seem cold or disinterested at first
Yeah that's what I noticed living abroad, Polish people are not outgoing or spontaneous at all. They will be very helpful and if you need anything you will find them extremely handy, but... If you are not in need for help but you just going to start random small talk in the elevator and youre bad luck enough to come across THAT POLISH PERSON... Well you will experience weirdest shit in your life.
Watching this video to learn Polish and all I'm getting is that Polish people are polite but focuses, they just keep to themselves and do what they need to do and move on with there lives. This is the complete opposite in England, literally anyone will talk to you about anything and everything.
I would like to understand why people do not small talk, e.g. in the lift? What are the deeper reasons? The people you asked in the street seem to be aware of the phenomenon, I even have the feeling some of them would like to have a small talk but do not start themselves. So maybe you ask in your next odcinek 110 :-) "Why do people in Poland not use small talk, e.g. in the lift"? Is it because of mistrust, as you do not know the other person? Or because people do not want to bother the other person? Or because of a certain shyness? I have observed this "non talking" many times, even when there was not foreigner around. The answers to my questions are still a mystery to me.
Frank Metzel I don’t like to bother other people with my presence. Sometimes you feel that somebody wants to talk , they try to catch an eye contact with you ect. . Than we will speak with each other. But when I see that somebody is not in a mood I’m not gonna force him/ her into conversation. In my opinion it is all about respect to other people
@@a.m.z1710 And that's how I find it pleasant when I was there in Poland. This self awareness fits exactly how I'd want anyone to know by themselves. It's great that in Poland this idea is not something rare. Hope the Polish traditions and cultures would stay original and pure.
but why should we? i mean...idk where are you from, but why you do small talk? like don't get me wrong, but for example USA and Poland have completely different cultures, so maybe you should ask yourself first? people in Poland have "small talk" but it's mostly about complaining. and happy hippy-hoppie small talk is just insincere for me, and for lots of polish people i guess
It's definitely not shyness, I just have no idea why anyone would like to have meaningless conversations with strangers that they'll probably never meet again 😅 I have my own life, they have their own life, it won't change so why should I bother (and possibly bother someone else in the process too, most people here like to mind their own business and definitely would feel uncomfortable being asked things out of the blue).
I does play this stickman animation game if a character is speaking to another character in one language and that character speaks to that character in a different language they both will understand each other because they speak different languages

Hi apscis_! 🙂
This expression is characteristic for the spoken language and it's very often more like a filler word that is not necessary for the sentence. It might sound like people say just the "-czy" ending when they speak very fast, but the word itself comes from the phrase "To znaczy..."("It means..."), which in English would be more like "I mean...", so people often use it either when they just start a sentence and they are still organizing their answer or when they want to clarify with more details something that they've just said before.
If you'd like to use it, you should try to pronounce the whole word "znaczy", rather than just the ending.
Is it popular in other regions from Poland? 🤔 I can only speak for Katowice and here I hear people saying it very often. Although, I hope maybe someone else from a different part of Poland will see this comment and share if people also talk like this in other regions 😉
It's a filler word, only used colloquially. Do not use it in writing, or formal speeches.
It literally means: "I mean, ..." - like Justyna mentioned above.
In everyday speech, Poles will eat some sounds, when they speak fast, but we still hear the distinction between znaczy and czy. Don't try to use "Czy", we immediately hear the difference, even if the "znaczy" is reduced/rushed at the beginning.
“Znaczy” is like a habit, filler word in translation to English it’s “I mean...”. And it does exist in the entire country of Poland. Don’t mess it up with “czy” though because “czy” is used to ask questions. Sometimes in informal speaking people can shorten the word in order to say their thoughts quicker, but that’s only in common speaking never in writing, but I personally think that polish is actually about strictly saying all the letters in the word, not like in French - where you don’t say the endings .
"Czy" also is used in a form of "or" like "this or that" in polish means "to czy tamto"
@@annaduda7260 Dziękuję 🙂 Po angielsku to dosłownie "It means..."
09:02 "co słychać?" na przykład.
As a bulgarian, this sounds like a combo between Serbian, Russian and Bulgarian.
Me to my Polish friend: Jak sie masc
My polish friend to me: JaCqUeS zHeY mAcH
French ruined my pronunciation
I have been learning Polish for about 2 years..its difficult to follow this level of language
they speak very spontanously here and they are not prepared so their sentence structure and vocabulary is hm... not so good in the first half at least :)

HOLY FCK GUYS IT'S SO DAMN FAST MY ITALIAN BRAIN CELLS CAN'T
Aaah, cz, ci, rz, ź overload!!
very nice
i think we have something like small talk in Poland, but it's mostly about politics, we like to complain with each other, even strange to us, or about something what just happened, for example a car hit a babcia, or a helicopter is flying, stuff like that. My old neighbours even say that they own dogs only to talk to other people with dogs xD. Yeah, we talk with people we have something in common, like dog for example, or just "dzień dobry", we usually talk to neighbours, but not to strangers if we don't have anything in kind to say.
Katowice tak?
Jak moge learn Polish ?
Me: Had a polish girlfriend
In her mind: *(Try to learn my language)*
Me: *_Don't even think about it_*
DEAR PUBLIC COLLEGE STUDENTS:
Listen up! Do not enter the industries of security guard, or you'll regret!
ye my friend warned me too, it only looks epic but is not listen to this guy fo real
Why?
Would I be able fo survive in Poland if I cannot speak the language? Is English commonly use there?
It's always good to get to know the basics! Why don't you check our channel where we teach survival Polish!
It's possible, but older generation has more problems with english. It's better to try in bigger cities and with people youger than 40-50. But yeah, it's possible. And don't be discouraged if people seem cold or disinterested at first
Nope :D
Yeah that's what I noticed living abroad, Polish people are not outgoing or spontaneous at all. They will be very helpful and if you need anything you will find them extremely handy, but... If you are not in need for help but you just going to start random small talk in the elevator and youre bad luck enough to come across THAT POLISH PERSON... Well you will experience weirdest shit in your life.
😀😀tak!
O, jaka piękna winda. Ładnie dzisiaj jeździ, prawda?
Im Russian and speak Ukrainian, when I listen Polish, I understand all.
0:56 que diablos!!
Justyna as beautiful as always ❤️
How can you speak so fast... :)
(Hungarian brother)
Nem beszélnek gyorson. Az en anyukam 3 x gyorsobban beszél lengyelül még ráadásul néha más szavakat alkalmaz ami tájszalásunkban szerepelnek.
Watching this video to learn Polish and all I'm getting is that Polish people are polite but focuses, they just keep to themselves and do what they need to do and move on with there lives. This is the complete opposite in England, literally anyone will talk to you about anything and everything.
I can barely keep up with the subtitles
Am I listening Polish or Russian ?
I would like to understand why people do not small talk, e.g. in the lift? What are the deeper reasons? The people you asked in the street seem to be aware of the phenomenon, I even have the feeling some of them would like to have a small talk but do not start themselves. So maybe you ask in your next odcinek 110 :-) "Why do people in Poland not use small talk, e.g. in the lift"? Is it because of mistrust, as you do not know the other person? Or because people do not want to bother the other person? Or because of a certain shyness? I have observed this "non talking" many times, even when there was not foreigner around. The answers to my questions are still a mystery to me.
Frank Metzel I don’t like to bother other people with my presence. Sometimes you feel that somebody wants to talk , they try to catch an eye contact with you ect. . Than we will speak with each other. But when I see that somebody is not in a mood I’m not gonna force him/ her into conversation. In my opinion it is all about respect to other people
@@a.m.z1710 And that's how I find it pleasant when I was there in Poland. This self awareness fits exactly how I'd want anyone to know by themselves.
It's great that in Poland this idea is not something rare. Hope the Polish traditions and cultures would stay original and pure.
but why should we? i mean...idk where are you from, but why you do small talk? like don't get me wrong, but for example USA and Poland have completely different cultures, so maybe you should ask yourself first? people in Poland have "small talk" but it's mostly about complaining. and happy hippy-hoppie small talk is just insincere for me, and for lots of polish people i guess
It's definitely not shyness, I just have no idea why anyone would like to have meaningless conversations with strangers that they'll probably never meet again 😅 I have my own life, they have their own life, it won't change so why should I bother (and possibly bother someone else in the process too, most people here like to mind their own business and definitely would feel uncomfortable being asked things out of the blue).
@@anitaxyz9767 Tak! Jest to tzw.bariera między moimi a cudzymi sprawami. Nie lubimy przekraczania tej granicy!
I does play this stickman animation game if a character is speaking to another character in one language and that character speaks to that character in a different language they both will understand each other because they speak different languages
i had to listen to this at 0.5 playback to even read and try to follow along with what they were saying.. This is tough to learn

Cześć, przyjaciele. Ják się masz? Chcę mówić na polskim języku i dlatego uczę się tego języka. Jesli są jakieś błędy, napisz do mnie.
Przyjaciele to więcej niż jedna osoba dlatego powinieneś napisać jak się macie. Po drugie mówi się chcę mówić po polsku no i nie potrzebnie jest akcent nad a w słowie jak
