== First things first ==
'''So, usually the first thing you need to learn during learning a new language is how to introduce yourself. Here are some of the useful phrases:'''
* '''Mam na imię... (name) -''' ''My name is... (name)''
* '''Mam (number) lat. -''' ''I'm (number) years old.''
* '''Pochodzę z... (place)''' '''-''' ''I'm come from... (place)''
* '''Pracuję jako... (profession) -''' ''I work as... (profession)''
* '''Interesuję się... -''' ''I'm interested with...''
* '''W wolnym czasie... -''' ''In my free time...''

== Greetings ==
'''But to introduce yourself, you need to know how to greet a person you'll be talking with. For example:'''
* '''Hej!''' - ''Hey!''
* '''Cześć!''' - ''Hello!''
* '''Dzień dobry!''' - ''Good morning/afternoon!''
* '''Dobry wieczór!''' - ''Good evening!''

== Basic words and phrases ==
'''Some other basic words that you should know contain:'''
* '''Proszę!''' - ''Please (when we're asking for something)''
* '''Proszę!''' - ''Here you are! (when we're handing something to another person)''
* '''Dzięki!/Dziękuję!''' - ''Thanks!/Thank you!''
* '''Przepraszam.''' - ''Sorry (when we want to apologize)''
* '''Przepraszam!''' - ''Excuse me! (for example: when we're going through the crowd)''
* '''Tak''' - ''Yes''
* '''Nie''' - ''No''
* '''Rozumiem.''' - ''I understand.''
* '''Nie rozumiem''' - ''I don't understand''

== Questions ==
'''In a basic conversation you should also ask some questions to another person... such as:'''
* '''Jak masz na imię?''' - ''What's your name?''
* '''Ile masz lat?''' - ''How old are you?''
* '''Gdzie mieszkasz?''' - ''Where do you live?''
* '''Skąd jesteś?''' - ''Where are you from?''
* '''Co robisz?''' - ''What are you doing?''
* '''Jak tam?/Jak się masz?''' - ''What's up?/How are you?''
* '''Mówisz po angielsku?''' - ''Do you speak English?''

== Goodbyes ==
'''After a conversation it's proper to say "Goodbye", right? Here are some ways to say it:'''
* '''Hej!/ Cześć!''' - ''Bye! (yes... it's the same as in the "Greetings" section)''
* '''Pa!''' - ''Bye!''
* '''Do widzenia''' - ''Goodbye''
* '''Dobranoc!''' - ''Good night!''
* '''Do zobaczenia''' - ''See you soon''
* '''Żegnaj!''' - ''Farewell! (but it's too dramatic ^^)''
* '''Nara!''' - ''See ya! (slang)''

== Exercises ==
'''To practise introductions even more, here you have some exercises! Enjoy! ^^'''

''Translate to English''
# Mam na imię Kasia.
# Mam 19 lat.
# Pracuję jako doktor.
# Interesuję się muzyką i sztuką.
# W wolnym czasie słucham jazzu i gotuję.
''Translate to Polish''
# My name is Frederica and I'm 23 years old.
# I'm working as a vet.
# Yes, I'm from Sweden!
# No, I don't speak Norwegian.
# Hey, Naomi! What's up?

== Trivia ==
* The literal translation of '''"Mam (number) lat"''' is '''"I have (number) years"'''... for example '''"Mam 36 lat"''' is '''"I have 36 years"'''
* Due to massive influence of English language a lot of words are simplified and "Polish-ized"... for example we often say '''"Sory"''' instead of '''"Przepraszam".'''
* Polish language is one of few (or maybe the only one) in which '''"No"''' means '''"Yes"'''... '''''with Polish pronounciation''''' '''"No"''' is a sign of approval .
