Learn Polish with Erni School

This lesson is all about one of the most useful Polish patterns for beginners: “I’m going…” Instead of memorizing grammar rules, you’ll practice simple, real-life phrases you can use immediately in Warsaw and anywhere in Poland. We work with everyday situations like going out, meeting friends, and making plans: Idę na kawę. – I’m going for a coffee. Idę na piwo. – I’m going for a beer. Idę na siłownię. – I’m going to the gym. Idę na koncert. – I’m going to a concert. Idę na basen. – I’m going to the swimming pool. Idę na mecz. – I’m going to a match. You’ll also practice short questions that make conversations happen: Idziesz? – Are you going? Jedziesz ze mną? – Are you coming with me? Chcesz iść? – Do you want to go? The lesson uses simple dialogues and black-and-white visual prompts to help you remember phrases faster and speak with confidence. No grammar lectures. Just usable Polish for real life. Perfect for beginners, expats, and anyone who wants to start speaking instead of translating in their head.

It can start with simple words, real questions, and normal conversation — exactly like in real life. In this lesson, we focused on a few very practical elements that beginners can use immediately: greetings talking about the weather the verb grać (to play) and two very useful words: podobno and kiedyś Let’s break it down.   1. Starting a conversation in Polish In real conversations — especially online or in group lessons — these phrases are everywhere: Dzień dobry. Good morning. Cześć. Hi. Czy mnie widać? Can you see me? Czy mnie słychać? Can you hear me? Czy jest okej? Is it OK? These are simple, but extremely useful. If you know these, you can already participate. 2. Small talk everyone uses: the weather In Poland, talking about the weather is not small talk — it’s survival 😄 Jest zimno. It’s cold. U nas jest bardzo zimno. It’s very cold where we are. Dzisiaj będzie minus dziesięć. Today it will be minus ten. And one key word appears all the time: Podobno Apparently / people say Podobno będzie minus dwadzieścia. Apparently it will be minus twenty. You don’t need to be sure — podobno is perfect when you’re not. 3. One powerful verb: grać (to play) With just one verb, you can talk about: music sports games hobbies Basic forms: Ja gram. – I play. Ty grasz. – You play. On / Ona gra. – He / She plays. 4. “Grać na” vs “Grać w” (very important) 🎸 Instruments → grać na Gram na gitarze. I play the guitar. Kimberly gra na pianinie. Kimberly plays the piano. ⚽ Sports & games → grać w Gram w piłkę nożną. I play football. Gram w szachy. I play chess. This distinction comes back again and again in Polish — learning it early helps a lot. 5. Talking about Sunday plans (real life Polish) This question is extremely common: Co robisz w niedzielę? What are you doing on Sunday? Possible simple answers: Idę do kościoła. – I’m going to church. Gram w kościele. – I play in church. Potem idę do domu. – Then I go home. Gram w szachy. – I play chess. Nothing fancy. Just real Polish. 6. Talking about the past: kiedyś Another very useful word: Kiedyś = used to / long ago Kiedyś grałem w piłkę. I used to play football. Teraz już nie gram. Now I don’t play anymore. This lets you talk about your life naturally, even with very basic Polish. Key takeaways If you remember only this, you’re doing great: grać na → instruments grać w → sports & games podobno → apparently / people say kiedyś → used to Weather talk = everyday Polish Simple sentences are enough to communicate Want to keep learning Polish?

We focus on two very common and useful words: grać – to play podobno – apparently / people say You’ll hear simple, everyday Polish used to talk about: music and instruments (grać na gitarze, grać na pianinie) sports and games (grać w piłkę, grać w szachy) weekend plans (Co robisz w niedzielę?) weather in Poland (Podobno jutro będzie minus 20) and sharing information you’re not 100% sure about (Słyszałem, że podobno…) Examples from the episode: Podobno Mike gra na gitarze. Słyszałem, że podobno lubisz grać w piłkę. Podobno jutro będzie bardzo zimno. We also explain how podobno is used in real life — when you repeat something you heard, but you’re not completely sure it’s true. This episode is perfect for beginners and early A2 learners who want to understand how Polish is really spoken and feel more confident in everyday situations. 👉 Learn Polish with us If you’d like to practice Polish in a calm, friendly, and practical way, you can: 🎧 join our VIP online Polish course 🗓️ live lessons every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday 👶 extra support for total beginners Or visit us in person: 🏫 a small language school in Northern Poland, in a quiet town near the Baltic Sea 📅 1-week or 2-week intensive courses 🚫 no crowds, no stress — just real Polish and real conversation If you have questions or want more examples, let us know — we’re happy to help.

We start with very easy A1 sentences and slowly build up to longer A2-level phrases, all around one everyday topic: winter, clothes, and cold weather. You’ll hear: short questions and answers, simple descriptions of weather, basic opinions, and a funny mini-story that shows how Polish works in real life. Polish comes first, English follows — so you train listening first, not translating in your head. This is the kind of Polish you need if you: live in Poland, plan to move to Poland, or want to understand people instead of just textbooks. ✅ Mon, Tue, Wed 7 pm VIP live lessons You can learn Polish step by step, starting very easy Repetition is not boring — it’s how Polish sticks Listening is essential if you want to speak Real-life stories make vocabulary easier to remember Simple Polish is powerful Polish 👉 Learn Polish If you want to learn Polish in Poland or online with real people: 🇵🇱 ➡️ Join our VIP Polish Course 🗣 Speaking practice 🎧 Listening-focused lessons 🧠 Flashcards & mini lessons ⏰ Live lessons at 7 PM every Mon, Tue, Wed at 7 pm You can join live or watch later — both work. 👇 Start learning Polish the smart way.

More examples https://www.learn-polish.pl/online-lessons/polish-vocabulary-clothes Join VIP live lessons https://app.learn-polish.pl/live-lessons    The lesson uses simple questions and answers to practice vocabulary naturally. Examples from the lesson: Masz kurtkę? Do you have a jacket? Tak, mam kurtkę. Yes, I have a jacket. Masz skarpety? Do you have socks? Mam ciepłe skarpety. I have warm socks. 🧢 “I Don’t Need a Hat”… Or Do I? Nie potrzebuję czapki. I don’t need a hat. The response immediately brings in context and logic: Jest bardzo zimno. It’s very cold. Potrzebujesz chyba czapki. You probably need a hat. 👢 Shoes Matter (Especially in Winter) The dialogue continues with another essential item: Masz buty? Do you have shoes? Mam ciepłe, zimowe buty. I have warm winter shoes. 📅 When Are the Live Lessons?

So we’ll cover the basic stuff you see every day: gloves a scarf a jacket trousers and your backpack — because somehow you always carry half your life in it. We’ll keep it simple, practical, and repeat it until it sticks. What you’ll be able to say after this lesson You’ll be able to talk about: what you wear what you need what you forgot and what you should buy Stuff like: “I need gloves.” “I forgot my scarf.” “This jacket is too thin.” “It’s cold today, I’m wearing warm trousers.” That’s real Polish. Not fancy. Useful. Mini Listening Challenge (use this during the week) Here are a few short sentences. Listen for the key words: Dzisiaj jest zimno. Today it’s cold. Masz rękawiczki? Do you have gloves? Zapomniałem szalika. I forgot my scarf. W plecaku mam czapkę. In my backpack I have a hat. Main Takeaways 1) Listening is not optional If you want to speak, you need input. Listening is vital. No shortcuts. 2) Repetition is the secret weapon You don’t “learn” a word once. You hear it 20 times, then it becomes automatic you remember it. 3) Live lessons force progress When you show up live, your brain switches on. You stop overthinking and start understanding and improve your Polish. Vocabulary List  we will practice Winter clothes rękawiczki – gloves szalik – scarf kurtka – jacket spodnie – trousers plecak – backpack czapka – hat buty – shoes/boots sweter – sweater płaszcz – coat Useful words zimno – cold ciepło – warm zakładać – to put on (clothes) nosić – to wear potrzebować – to need zapomnieć – to forget Polish  Live Lessons So here’s the plan: Join the live lesson at 7 PM — Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday.

🟠 1. Introduction – The Autumn Topic No dobra, dzisiaj rozmawiamy o jesieni... Alright, today we’re talking about autumn. The session opens with casual conversation practice about autumn (jesień) — a warm-up for students before moving to the speaking exam section. The teacher greets students (like Ania and Queen) and starts by asking basic questions: Czy lubisz jesień? — Do you like autumn? Kto lubi jesień? — Who likes autumn? Students share opinions, using simple Polish sentences such as Lubię jesień or Jesień jest fajna. The teacher encourages everyone to speak naturally, even mixing some English to make it easier for A2 learners. 🟠 2. Talking About Food and Comfort Zrobiłem fasolkę po bretońsku. Znasz? Bardzo dobre danie. I made “fasolka po bretońsku.” Do you know it? A very good dish. A natural transition happens — from weather and mood to food, a common conversational topic. Learners practice vocabulary about Polish dishes, especially fasolka po bretońsku (beans with bacon and sausage). Key phrases: Lubię fasolkę po bretońsku. — I like Breton-style beans. Z boczkiem, kiełbasą i sosem. — With bacon, sausage, and sauce. This helps learners express likes and preferences, a skill tested in oral exams. 🟠 3. The Weather and Feelings Zimno, chłodno, przyjemnie, komfortowo. Cold, chilly, pleasant, comfortable. Learners describe the weather and temperature, using adjectives to express how they feel: Jest zimno. — It’s cold. Jest przyjemnie. — It’s pleasant. Dla mnie jest chłodno, ale lubię to. — It’s chilly for me, but I like it. They discuss what kind of weather helps them work or think better, linking emotions with temperature — a typical oral exam theme about “how weather affects you.” 🟠 4. Communication Problems and Humor Komunikacja to jest duży problem. Communication is a big problem. Ania mentions a tough day at work and communication issues. The teacher humorously reacts — Ania, zwolnij ich od razu! (“Fire them immediately!”) — showing a conversational, real-life tone. The group laughs and stays in Polish conversation mode, which builds comfort for spontaneous speaking — exactly what oral exams test: reacting naturally. 🟠 5. Ghosts, Thermostats, and Everyday Life Vocabulary Kto bawił się termostatem? Może duch? Who played with the thermostat? Maybe a ghost? A funny everyday situation unfolds about someone changing the thermostat temperature at home. Learners joke about who’s guilty — dzieci? mąż? duch? — children, husband, or ghost. This part mixes domestic vocabulary (termostat, ogrzewanie, temperatura) with humor and cultural comments. It keeps students speaking freely, building fluency without pressure. 🟠 6. Beliefs, Seasons, and Colors Wierzysz w duchy? Lubię kolory jesieni. Do you believe in ghosts? I like autumn colors. The discussion moves into beliefs and preferences, touching on ghosts, good and bad spirits, and the beauty of autumn — czerwony, pomarańczowy, zielony. Students describe what they like about different seasons — a classic oral exam question: Lubię jesień, bo lubię kolory. Lubię wiosnę, bo wszystko jest zielone. 🟠 7. Pumpkin and Cooking Practice Lubię zupę dyniową z imbirem i mlekiem kokosowym. I like pumpkin soup with ginger and coconut milk. The topic shifts to cooking vocabulary and describing recipes — a strong B1 skill but practiced here at A2 level. They talk about ingredients (czosnek, cebula, przyprawy) and food preferences (lubię, nie lubię). Also, Queen mentions ekologiczna dynia (organic pumpkin) — useful modern vocabulary for oral exams about lifestyle and food. 🟠 8. Prices and Shopping Practice Co można kupić w Biedronce za 20 złotych? What can you buy in Biedronka for 20 zlotys? Students practice numbers and prices — perfect exam content. They discuss train tickets (bilet do Warszawy, do Gdańska) and shopping examples (chleb, marchewka, masło). Key grammar: Ile kosztuje...? — How much does it cost? Za 20 złotych można kupić... — For 20 zlotys you can buy... These are core oral exam patterns for Polish learners. 🟠 9. Stress, Relaxation, and Daily Routines Marchewka jest dobra na stres. A co jeszcze jest dobre na stres? Carrot is good for stress. What else is good for stress? The conversation turns psychological and personal. Students discuss how they deal with stress: Zakupy są dobre na stres. — Shopping helps with stress. Lubię jeździć pociągiem. — I like traveling by train. To mnie uspokaja. — It calms me down. The teacher mentions his father was a railway worker (kolejarz), adding a personal touch — again, strong oral practice material. 🟠 10. Cold Weather Habits and Cleaning Co robisz, gdy jest zimno? What do you do when it’s cold? Learners discuss routines and habits in winter, introducing verbs like sprzątać, gotować, pracować. Ania says cleaning helps when it’s cold; the teacher jokes he prefers dusić mięso (“to stew meat”) instead of cleaning. This gives practice for the reflexive structure co robisz, gdy... — important for speaking fluency. 🟠 11. Home Temperature and Comfort Jaka jest idealna temperatura w domu? What’s the ideal temperature at home? They discuss ideal indoor temperatures — 18 stopni, 21 stopni, 25 stopni — and household heating types (gaz, centralne ogrzewanie, piec). Queen prefers warmth; Ania is fine with 18°C. The teacher praises correct answers humorously: Ania dostaje piątkę! — “Ania gets a five!” 🟠 12. Cold Showers and Health Czy lubisz zimne prysznice? Zimna woda zdrowia doda. Do you like cold showers? Cold water adds health. The class discusses health habits — cold showers, coffee, and sleep temperature. Students learn simple Polish proverbs and health phrases: Zimne prysznice są zdrowe. — Cold showers are healthy. Zimny prysznic jest jak kawa. — A cold shower is like coffee. 🟠 13. Coffee and Heating Systems Pijesz kawę czarną czy z mlekiem? Do you drink black coffee or with milk? Final part — relaxed conversation about coffee preferences and home heating. It keeps the students talking in full sentences — a final warm-up before the speaking exam practice. 🟠 14. Conclusion – Speaking Practice and Exam Reminder Dzisiaj zrobimy sobie egzamin z mówienia. Today we’ll do a speaking exam. The session closes with motivation and humor: The teacher thanks Ania and Queen, praises their performance, and reminds them about the upcoming speaking practice — a mock oral exam focused on spontaneous Polish speech, describing situations, and reacting naturally. He ends with friendly advice: Pamiętajcie o cebuli. — Remember the onion. Nie smażcie za dużo. — Don’t fry too much. I pamiętajcie o zimnych prysznicach. — And remember cold showers.
