Cześć Lisa,

Thank you for posting.

"Jak sie mówi po polsku water?" works perfectly 👍

Happy studying!

Adding to Robert's question I was wondering if I can also use "Jak sie mówi po polsku water?" instead of "Jak powiedzieć po polsku water?" Or would that not work since mowi means speak and powiedzieć means say?

Cześć Robert Bielejeski

Thank you for posting!

"Jak powiedzieć po polsku" means "How do you say in Polish...." and you use it to ask about words you don't know.

On the other hand, "Czy mowię po polsku?" would mean "Am I speaking Polish?".

Hope that helps!

Let us know if you have any questions.

What is the difference in Czy mowije po polsku and jak powiedziec po polsku?

Cześć Chloe Q,

Thanks for your comment.

Możesz powiedzieć "płyn/żel do dezynfekcji rąk" or "płyn/żel antybakteryjny".

This is a very useful phrase nowadays.

Please take care of yourself/Dbaj o siebie!

Jak powiedzieć po polsku "hand sanitizer"?

Dziękuję bardzo!

Hi Joseph Craig,

Thank you for posting.

"Proszę powtórzyć za wolniej" is almost correct. This "za" is unnecessary.

Correct sentence would be "Proszę powtórzyć wolniej".

Is it grammatically correct to say "Proszę powtórzyć za wolniej" or what would be a better way to ask "Could you repeat it more slowly please?" (or similar).

Hello Jane,

Thank you for posting.

I am not sure what are you asking about.

We do not use verbs with "to" in Polish 😳

Could you please clarify?

When do you use “to” before the verb?
