Thread: polish verbs

I thought it would be a good idea to make a thread were you can post verbs for others to learn. It will certainly help people who have just started learning polish.(Like me )

I will start:


verb: to want = chcieć

present tense:

chcę = i want
chcesz = you want
chce = he/she/it wants
chcemy = we want
chcecie = you want
chcą = they want

robić = to do

robię = i do
robisz = you do
robi = he/she/it does
robimy = we do
robicie = you do
robią

być = to be

jestem = i am
jesteś = you are
jest = he/she/it is
jesteśmy = we are
jesteście = you are
są = they are

Please add to this list any important verbs you know like: to sleep, to drink, to fight, to love, to hate,...

vos, say, do you happen to have some Polish background, or something like that? If no, where'd the idea of studying the langauge come from?

Anyhow:
to sleep - spać
ja śpię
ty śpisz
on/ona/ono śpi

my śpimy
wy śpicie
oni śpią

to drink - pić
ja piję
ty pijesz
on/ona/ono pije

my pijemy
wy pijecie
oni piją

to fight - walczyć
ja walczę
ty walczysz
on/ona/ono walczy

my walczymy
wy walczycie
oni walczą

to fight, as in quarell - kłocić się
ja kłocę się
ty kłocisz się
on/ona/ono kł

what a good idea! here are a few more:

pamiętać – to remember

ja pamiętam

on/ona/ono pamięta

No, i do not have a polish background. I became interested in the language because i love history. And Poland has a very rich history. It is the same with russian by the way. I have started learning a bit of russian because of the same reason. I just got interested in the language and culture. I have just started though.
And it never hurts to know an extra language. You never know when it can come in handy.

You just studying via net, or actually attendting some courses etc?

I am learning everything over the net. But it is not easy to find good material.
