Lesson focus

In Polish, the most universal greeting, which stands for both "Good morning" and "Good afternoon," is Dzień dobry.
The first word, Dzień, means "day." Dobry, which in Polish is "good," follows Dzień.
Dzień dobry is appropriate in both formal and informal situations.
Please remember about the word order in the phrase Dzień dobry.
In the evening, Poles say Dobry wieczór, which means "Good evening."
Let's hear it one more time: Dobry wieczór.
As we mentioned before, dobry stands for "good." Wieczór means "evening."
Dobry wieczór is reserved for formal situations.
The most popular greeting among friends is Cześć, which in English means "Hello."
