back on track? maybe possibly perhaps hopefully? 2 months ago

whenever i put my mind to a mammoth task (like learning a new language), i think, ‘it’ll be easy! i’ll do it in no time!’

and i start off really well, too. i watched youtube videos for hours in an attempt to learn Polish, and was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was. i eventually learned how to read letters and words, memorising the Polish alphabet. And i even learned the word FOR “alphabet”, which still rings clearly in my mind to this day. haha

i was UNBELIEVABLY HAPPY when i pronounced my first Polish word, after i figured out the pronunciation all by myself
it was “Liść” which means “Leaf.” I read the word in text form, and – by consulting my memorised alphabet, i worked out the pronunciation. i was so happy, i bragged to my family!

sadly, recently i’ve been slipping really badly with teaching myself Polish. but i’ve decided to get back on track, if i can. with the aid of my dictionary, and with help from some Polish natives, i should hopefully be able to progress a bit more.

to be honest, i doubt i will EVER be able to construct my own sentences in Polish, because i’ve never been good at that. i can barely even construct sentences in English! haha! but if i can learn ENTIRE sentences off by heart, i should be able to compensate for my inabilities.

oh, and thanks to the Polish commenters who offered to assist me! i might take you up on those offers :D x

i've started so i'll (probably not) finish 3 months ago

i started learning polish when a polish girl moved into town. that was quite a while ago now.

i spend ages hunting down a polish dictionary, in vain.
i eventually found the necessary equipment for learning this new language, and set out to really learn it f’real.

i failed, obviously. however, after i’ve ‘progressed’ in ‘life’ a bit more (finished my education, etc) i plan to take up learning it again. the basic words are still in my memory, and it shouldn’t be too hard to get them all implanted once again. after all, it’s not a hard language in the slightest.

My sister in law is Polish, and I think it’d be really nice if I could speak to her in her native language. Her English is amazing, and she makes a big effort to learn new words and pronunciation all the time so I think I should make the effort as well. I know quite a few words and phrases now, I’m teaching myself, and I think it’s going pretty well.

This is pretty much all I know in Polish, and it basically means “My hovercraft is full of eels”, which is not a very useful phrase unless you’re attending some comic or Sci-fi convention in Poland (which is not improbable, but this is not the point).

Anyway. I’m going to study in Warsaw for a semester next year as an exchange student, so I view this as an opportunity to learn a new language. I’m really looking forward to this and I’m optimistic since I’m a fast learner when it comes to languages :)

Difficult! 7 months ago

Poland is a beautiful country and I can’t wait to go back and see more of it. My boyfriend’s family is Polish and I would love to be able to talk to them. I’ve been working on Rosetta Stone and a few websites, but I’m getting easily discouraged. I’m having trouble with the pronunciation and even hearing it doesn’t help sometimes. Hopefully I will have enough will to accomplish this!



just starting 9 months ago

im polish, but like most people i was born and raised in the u.s. and polish was a lost language. i wish to relearn this amazing language to impress my family back home.
