“Urodziny” means “birthday,” and in this micro-lesson you’ll say it like you’ve been invited to the party since childhood. We give you the word at natural speed, then slow it down so you can nail the stress on the second syllable. After that we glue it into three must-know lines: – “Wszystkiego najlepszego!” (All the best!) – “Dziękuję za prezent.” (Thanks for the gift.) – “Mam dzisiaj urodziny.” (It’s my birthday today.) Rep...

This bite-sized episode is all about “pielęgnacja skóry” – skin care. First you’ll hear the phrase at full speed, then slowed down so you can mimic the Polish melody. We stitch it into three ultra-useful lines you can drop into any chat: – “Dbam o moją skórę.” (I take care of my skin.) – “Jaki masz krem?” (What cream do you use?) – “To jest tylko marketing.” (It’s just marketing.) Repeat track included – perfect for your morn...

“Gra na telefonie” is the tiny Polish sentence you’ll hear a dozen times in this lesson. It means “playing on the phone,” and once you can say it naturally you’ll understand half of what Polish parents mumble at their kids. We slow the phrase down, speed it back up, then drop it into real-life snippets: – “Nie graj na telefonie!” (Stop playing on the phone!) – “Gram tylko pięć minut.” (I’m only playing five minutes.) Repeat-ou...

In this short, high-energy episode we flip the usual script and ask: Can you cook? Listen for the Polish question “Czy potrafisz gotować?” repeated in real-life speed, then slowed down so you can copy the accent. We toss in handy extras: “I like to cook – Lubię gotować,” “I’m learning – Uczę się,” and the magic word that gets you invited to every Polish dinner table, “Pomogę – I’ll help.” By the end you’ll be able to answer the t...
