POLISH MASTERPOST
Dzień dobry wszystkim! So over the recent months, I have met many people interested in the Polish language. It makes me so happy and I would like to help in any way I can. If you need any help with Polish please feel free to message me. I’m always happy to help. I know that Polish can be quite a tiring language since there is a sh*tload of grammar to memorize. If anything gets confusing I’ll try to simply explain it, as best that I can.
But keep going! Polish isn’t as hard as everyone makes it to be! I’m sure the next Polish post I’ll be creating is ‘a reason to keep going’ post about Polish. It only gets easier from the grammar with practice!
Stay positive and happy learning!! - Laura
