Welcome to our Polish Podcast. Hosts Roy and Anja discuss a series of "what if" scenarios — from the collapse of the EU, a third world war, rising pension numbers, human microchips and hidden cancer cures, to space tourism, internet control and home robots. “Co jeśli” is the Polish way to ask “What if…?”—and in this bite-sized episode you'll say it like a native day-dreamer. First you hear the phrase at real speed, then slowed down so you can copy the soft “ć” and the gentle “jeśli.” We drop it into three imagination-ready sentences: – “Co jeśli zdam ten egzamin?” (What if I pass this exam?) – “Co jeśli się pomylę?” (What if I'm wrong?) – “Co jeśli to zadziała?” (What if it works?) Repeat-along track included—perfect while you stare out the window or plan your next big move. Challenge: DM us your boldest Polish “Co jeśli…” question and we'll answer it in next week's episode.
“Boże Narodzenie” is the beautiful (and very Polish) way to say “Christmas,” and in this festive micro-lesson you'll pronounce it like you're seated at the wigilia table. First you hear the phrase at native speed, then slowed down so you can master the nasal “ę” and the soft “ź.” We drop it into three holiday-ready sentences: – “Wesołych Świąt!” (Merry Christmas) – “Spędzam święta z rodziną.” (I'm spending the holidays with family.) – “Kocham polskie potrawy świąteczne.” (I love Polish Christmas dishes.) Repeat-along track included—perfect while you wrap gifts or wait for the first star to appear.

“Stres przed egzaminem” is the Polish way to say “stress before an exam,” and in this micro-lesson you'll pronounce it without breaking a sweat. First you hear the phrase at native speed, then slowed down so you can nail the sneaky “sprzed” cluster and the soft “egzaminem.” We drop it into three calm-down sentences: – “Czuję stres przed egzaminem.” (I feel stress before the exam.) – “Muszę odpuścić.” (I need to let go.) – “Biorę głęboki oddech.” (I take a deep breath.) Repeat-along track included—perfect while you queue outside the hall or revise in the corridor. Challenge: DM us your pre-exam Polish mantra and we'll reply with a 10-second voice cheerleader.
“Fizyczna atrakcja” is Polish for “physical attraction,” and in this micro-lesson you'll say it without sounding like a textbook.

“Organizacja siebie” (“organising yourself”) is the tiny Polish phrase you'll repeat until your calendar thanks you. First you hear it at full speed, then slowed down so you can nail the sneaky “cj” and the soft “siebie.” We drop it into three productivity-ready sentences: – “Potrzebuję lepszej organizacji siebie.” (I need better self-organisation.) – “Planuję dzień z rana.” (I plan my day first thing in the morning.) – “Mój kalendarz jest moim najlepszym przyjacielem.” (My calendar is my best friend.)

Challenge: post a screenshot of your newly-labelled Polish planner with hashtag #organizacjasiebie and we'll repost the tidiest one.
“Wypalenie zawodowe” is how Poles say “job burnout,” and in this micro-lesson you'll pronounce it without sounding burned-out yourself. We play the phrase at native speed, slow it down, then slip it into three office-ready sentences: – “Czuję wypalenie zawodowe.” (I feel job burnout.) – “Potrzebuję przerwy.” (I need a break.) – “Równowaga jest ważna.” (Balance is important.)

“Uzależnienie od alkoholu” is Polish for “alcohol addiction,” and in this micro-lesson you'll say it clearly, without stigma or stumble.

Challenge: if today is your day one, DM us “dzień pierwszy” in Polish and we'll send back a personalized “jestem z Tobą” voice note.
“Prace” means both “jobs” and “work,” and in this micro-lesson you'll say it like you're scanning the Polish classifieds. We play the word at real speed, slow it down, then slot it into three CV-ready sentences: – “Szukam nowych prac.” (I'm looking for new jobs.) – “Ta praca jest zdalna.” (This job is remote.) – “Roboty zabierają niektóre prace.” (Robots are taking some jobs.)

“Gry w kałamarnicę” is how Poles refer to the global hit “Squid Games,” and in this micro-lesson you'll pronounce it like you just stepped off the set. First you hear the phrase at full speed, then slowed down so you can master the twisty “ł” and the soft “nicę.” We drop it into three binge-ready sentences: – “Oglądałeś Gry w kałamarnicę?” (Have you watched Squid Games?) – “To jest tylko gra.” (It's only a game.) – “Nie umiem rysować tamtego symbolu.” (I can't draw that symbol.) Repeat-along track included—perfect while you queue the next episode or sketch a honeycomb. Challenge: DM us the Polish name of the game you think you'd survive and we'll reply with your odds in Polish.
“Zima” is Polish for “winter,” and in this micro-lesson you'll say it so well that even the snowflakes listen. First you hear the word at street speed, then slowed down so you can copy the short, punchy “i.” We drop it into three frosty, ready-to-use sentences: – “Lubię zimę.” (I like winter.) – “Pada śnieg!” (It's snowing!) – “Trzeba odgarnąć śnieg.” (You have to shovel the snow.) Repeat-along track included—perfect while you scrape ice off the windshield or sip hot tea. Challenge: record a 5-second clip of yourself saying “Zima nadchodzi!” (Winter is coming!) and tag us @learnpolishpodcast; we'll repost the coolest ones.
“Urodziny” means “birthday,” and in this micro-lesson you'll say it like you've been invited to the party since childhood. We give you the word at natural speed, then slow it down so you can nail the stress on the second syllable. After that we glue it into three must-know lines: – “Wszystkiego najlepszego!” (All the best!) – “Dziękuję za prezent.” (Thanks for the gift.) – “Mam dzisiaj urodziny.” (It's my birthday today.) Repeat-along track included—perfect to whisper while blowing out candles or typing “
This bite-sized episode is all about “pielęgnacja skóry” – skin care. First you'll hear the phrase at full speed, then slowed down so you can mimic the Polish melody. We stitch it into three ultra-useful lines you can drop into any chat: – “Dbam o moją skórę.” (I take care of my skin.) – “Jaki masz krem?” (What cream do you use?) – “To jest tylko marketing.” (It's just marketing.) Repeat track included – perfect for your morning routine while you slap on whatever's in your bathroom cabinet. Challenge: describe your own skin-care steps in Polish before the episode ends and post it in the comments – we'll correct the first ten.
“Gra na telefonie” is the tiny Polish sentence you'll hear a dozen times in this lesson. It means “playing on the phone,” and once you can say it naturally you'll understand half of what Polish parents mumble at their kids. We slow the phrase down, speed it back up, then drop it into real-life snippets: – “Nie graj na telefonie!” (Stop playing on the phone!) – “Gram tylko pięć minut.” (I'm only playing five minutes.) Repeat-out-loud track included, so practice on your commute and surprise the next Polish speaker you meet. Fun challenge: count how many times you catch yourself gaming on your own phone before the episode ends.
In this short, high-energy episode we flip the usual script and ask: Can you cook? Listen for the Polish question “Czy potrafisz gotować?” repeated in real-life speed, then slowed down so you can copy the accent. We toss in handy extras: “I like to cook – Lubię gotować,” “I'm learning – Uczę się,” and the magic word that gets you invited to every Polish dinner table, “Pomogę – I'll help.” By the end you'll be able to answer the title question with confidence (even if the only thing you can make is coffee). Do us a favor: try the new phrase on a Polish friend today and tag us @learnpolishpodcast – we love re-posting your victories.
