Cześć,

Ever feel like learning Polish is an extreme sport? Like, one minute you’re confidently saying “Dzień dobry,” and the next, you're drowning in a sea of cases, verb aspects, and words with way too many consonants?

Here’s the thing: You can learn Polish quickly – without feeling overwhelmed. The trick? Simplify, prioritize, and focus on what actually moves the needle.

Last week, I wrote a guide on how to learn Polish fast without burning out. Inside, I break down:

✔️ Why learning Polish feels hard (and how to outsmart it)

✔️ How long does it really take to learn Polish

✔️ My best tips to learn Polish (or any language) faster

👉🏻 Read it here: How to Learn Polish Fast Without Getting Overwhelmed

💡 Phrase of the week

„Nie taki diabeł straszny, jak go malują.”

Literal meaning: The devil is not as scary as he is painted.

What it really means: Things often seem harder than they really are (kind of like Polish cases! 😉)

📚 My resources to help you learn Polish faster

➡️ Exploring Przypadki eBook:

Master the 💩 out of Polish cases with this 147-page ebook, where I break down each case in a super easy-to-understand way (comes with a workbook).

Looking forward to another great week!
