Polish language challenge: March 2015


The challenge starts on 1st March and lasts for 31 days.
Each day a new sentence or phrase will be posted on Facebook (HERE) and on this language blog. This sentence will contain a word or a short phrase and here is what you’re asked to do about it
1.      Read the sentence / phrase out loud.
2.      Make sure you understand what it means. (I’ll be helping you with any tricky vocabulary and grammar.)
3.      Write a sentence using the selected word. (You can write as many sentences as you wish.)
4.      Say your sentence out loud. (You may want to check your pronunciation with a Polish friend or use Google Translate to hear it there.)
I’d like to encourage you to actively participate in this challenge. Reading or listening will give you only passive knowledge. You must produce the language to be able to remember vocabulary and different structures. Without saying or writing things, you will most likely soon forget what you've read. It is best if the sentences you produce are relevant to you. This will increase the likelihood of you using them in real life conversations.
Everyday contact with Polish through commenting and saying your sentences out loud will develop into a habit. After 31 days you will not only learn 31 new words or phrases and see them in different contexts, but you’ll also be able to produce sentences using them.

What happens next? On 1st April I will share with you a text in Polish. You’ll be able to read it without difficulties and have a discussion about it in Polish with your fellow challenge participants. I have designed this challenge for Elementary to Intermediate learners of Polish but learners at all levels are welcome to take part. I’d also like to encourage you to read sentences posted by others and to correct them in case there are any errors.

Zapraszam i powodzenia! J
Marzanna
