Jechac or Jezdzic?

Jechać is determinate, Jeżdzić is the indeterminate form of the verbs meaning 'to go by vehicle, ride, journey'.

Can anyone explain the appropriate usage of these verbs....
Examples would help a great deal.

mam jechać do Gdanska. i must travel to Danzig or i'll be travelling to.. (one time)

mam jeździć to Gdanska. I will be travelling to Danzig. (multiple times)

If I'm not mistaken (which I probably am), isn't 'I must travel to Danzig.' Muszę.....' rather than 'Mam.......'?? Furthermore, I think the indeterminite is spelled 'jeżdźić', or am I again wrong?

It is not Danzig it is Gdańsk.

look it up prince.. gdansk is danzig.


kinda.. "mam" means i have to or need to.. or that's on my 'plate' to do..

Some US and German maps though still refer to it by its 'historical'/occupied name, rather than by it's Polish form. Same for 'Wrocław'/Breslau, '£ódź'/Lodsch, 'Szczecin'/Stettin etc..... I'm not saying I agree with it, but it's often seen nonetheless--:)

because those are german names and otherwise alternate names for these places.

OK
Lets try again.

Morse confusing examples:

będę jechać na koniu - I will be riding a horse - future tense
będę jeździć na koniu - I will be riding on a horse - present future

This is simple basic slav logic in grammar and it is not just confined to the Polish Language or the very jechać or jeździć. The verbs of motion on foot are similar and are used in the same sort of way. Chodzić and iść are the verbs of motion to go on foot.

Ja pojadę jutro ku Londynowi-I will go to London tomorrow
and
Ja jeżdżę pociągiem każdy dzień do pracy-going to work like a commuter (backwards and forwards).

Ja idę do sklupu-I am going to the shop and
ja chodzę wszędzie pieszo-I go everywhere on foot.

Idę do sklepu - I am going to the shop

These sound like Russian sentences. Lol


Ja pojadę jutro do Londynu


"każdego dnia" or "w każdy dzień"


"sklepu"

ku Londynowie / do Londynu

Maybe Michal goes towards London but never actually gets there, a bit like the way he can't quite make it as far as a Russian forum so he only gets as far as Poland.

Or like: Idę do szkoły (budynku szkolnego), ale może jeszcze nie przyjdzę tamtędy.

przecziwko

Chodzę do szkoły i uczę się literatury polskiej.

Widzę, że masz pod górę do tej szkoły :)

He-he!! Tak jest-:)........ a nigdy nie przyszedłem -:) Zabłądziłem na drodze!!!

That is just spelling but ku Londynowi sounds a lot better than gips u nogi!

Michal, that's the time to let this bs go....

No, that is really very bad Polish indeed. It should be 'ja chodzę do sklpeów co dziennie'. Każdego dnia and w każdy dzień is simply not Polish.

Idę do sklepu is by far the most common. Codziennie is written together.

Idę codziennie do sklepu (or are you going regularly to many stores e.g. 'sklepów').

Only the word order (dostępstwo słowa) of 'codziennie' was incorrect in the previous post-:)

Whose post? Michal's? I made codziennie a separate point.

It could even be the first word in the sentence if you want to emphasise the fact that you do it every day.

Rather:
Codziennie chodzę do sklepu
(and no, I don't think we use "do sklepów" often, better to say "na zakupy" in this case. You can also say "Codziennie chodzę [na zakupy] do kilku sklepów" = "I go shopping to/in [I'm not sure which pronoun is correct in English] several stores/shops every day", if you really need to underline that you're doing your shopping in several stores)

'Course, Krzysztof! I meant both, naturally. Thanks for that.

Yes but co dzień are in fact two words which together mean every day.

Co means what, Michał. Poles prefer to say each day, każdy dzień, or a conjugated form of it.

i belive it's only one word..codzień

na codzień = codziennie = everyday

No, in Russian yes but not Polish.

Give it up, Michał. Seriously, you are wrong.

Now, correct me if I am wrong, he says "za każdy dzień..."

Maybe you should drink for better times, Michał. Let me guess, you are gonna tell me that Mr Gawlinski isn't Polish. Go on, do it.

Maybe it is you who has zgubiony szczęscie, wykorżystaj te chwile and admit you are wrong.

No, it is a totally different context. If you live in Poland then you should know the language very well by now and should not even need to ask so perhaps it is time for you to give this up and start with French or another language, which will be of more international long term use than silly Polish.
