| POST |
| Eric: Listen again to Kasia's post. |
| Marzena: No taką muzykę to ja lubię... |
| Eric: "Well, this kind of music I do like!" |
| Marzena: (SLOW) No taką muzykę to ja lubię... (Regular) No taką muzykę to ja lubię... |
| Eric: Let's break this down. First is an expression meaning "Well, such a music." |
| Marzena: No taką muzykę |
| Eric: The first part is a very useful expression meaning 'Well, such a'. It is usually followed by a positive statement with a noun at the front. Here, it is “music” in the accusative form. Listen again- "Well, such a music" is... |
| Marzena: (SLOW) No taką muzykę (REGULAR) No taką muzykę |
| Eric: Then comes the phrase - "this I like ." |
| Marzena: to ja lubię |
| Eric: By using the inversion in this sentence – putting “this” at the beginning of it – the statement itself is getting stronger. It’s important here to use it in this order because it connects better to the previous part. Listen again- "this I like " is... |
| Marzena: (SLOW) to ja lubię (REGULAR) to ja lubię |
| Eric: All together, "Well, this kind of music I do like!" |
| Marzena: No taką muzykę to ja lubię... |
