Polish Lessons Units

Very interesting videos!!

I'm writting down every single word and I'm impressed that many words are EXACTLY the same in my language - Portuguese.

melodia - magia - miniatura - pedal - energia - geometria - Europa

That's so nice!!
Congrats for the videos

it's pedał, but you're correct about the other ones, they come from the Latin (or Greek)

THANK YOU SO MUCH for doing this. I am a black guy in Chicago with many Polish friends and they are trying to teach me a few Polish words, but this really helps in the pronunciation of the words.

Thanks,
Greg(Jacek)

With last four units for: z, ź, zi and ż, I completed the pronunciation guide to Polish Language. There are 45 units, 748 nouns illustrated. It took me a year of work. It was your nice comments which kept me going. Thank you so much.

Here's another nice comment. Well done - they've been a pleasure and an education to listen to.

But what's next?

I’ve got a few ideas.

I know an American women who is a kind of a newborn Jesus freak. (but apart of this you would never believe how nice she is) I read the Gospel for her. I am going to show this project also in this forum. It’s a little bit creepy but I remember my first “book” I read in English was the Gospel. Those New Testament stories are very strongly present in our Christian based world so it may be quite a good idea.
On the other hand I don’t feel much acclaim for this project so maybe I stop it after a while.

The best thing is: I go to Poland on 8th June (will watch the German - Polish play with my Polish friends) and there I will produce some street language experience videos. We will take a mike and hit Cracow to see how Polish is spoken in the streets.

I will work there with one school. The idea is to bring them to produce language experience material for people who want to learn Polish. I hope I can reach every Polish school someday (in 100 years). The politic idea is: producing media is obvious nowadays - we should teach our children how to handle it - the best way to teach is to produce language scenes.

This is a video students of my partner media workshop did entirely on their own.
Please give them some nice words of encouragement. They certainly deserved it and some nice words of appreciation triggers a lot of energy. I know that.


Then I started to work on a project where I would deal with verbs. The aim is to get to know them systematic and thoroughly. I am still developing the idea.

Then I started to work on a project to demonstrate examples of how accusative govern the nouns. I am still developing this idea.

I also think of many vids to help to learn words (which was what my pronunciation guide was appreciated for). This time based on themes. Like: kitchen - and all items and actions referring to it.

I would greatly appreciate any ideas from you on it as well.

Janusz,

Thank you for all your hard work not only here but on Solar Net.

The video was stupendous!

The most difficult thing to grasp, in my learning experence so far, has been the changing of word endings. While the basics, (which indicate masc. fem. or neuter) are not difficult to fathom, situations where Ewa would become Ewę for example are not so easy to get to grips with.

The video is both educational and entertaining, the two ingredients that make learning a fun thing.

Eager to see more.
many thanks

Trying to learn verbs has so many unexpected twists and turns. Going through commonly used verbs seems like a good idea, as long as you don't forget how much of the time we talk about the past and future. I still only know a tiny bit about past and future tenses of verbs, when a typical conversation will be about what happened yesterday, things that I have done, the things we will do tomorrow, and so on.

It's good to know you have so many ideas.

Exactly those two aspects; verb endings and tenses of the verbs are the themes I am going to concentrate upon.

Janusz i have been watching this videos in youtube and found some of your spanish experimental lessons.
I live in Argentina, and i really want to help with your project.
Those videos are not completely correct, there are many phrases that needs to be corrected, and dont even talk about the translator's accent xD (its awful!)
In the second video there are a couple of articles that are not ok, and in the third one "un billetero" "un bolso del tocador" "una candela" "una bola del disco" "un escúter" "un revisor" too.
Well if you need some help just let me know, you have my attention.
Cya! :)

Having just joined,this is exactly what i was looking for.Thankyou for taking the time and effort to help others.
