FAQ
Q: What are you doing in Poland?
A: I'm a preschool English teacher and adult conversational English teacher.
Q: Why Poland?
A: No idea. For real though, I wanted to move to Europe after graduating university, and teaching English was my best option to get a visa. Poland is one of the countries in Europe with the highest demand for English teachers, and it just worked out!
Crap, now whole comment section knows I'm a shitty teacher. Please spare it from my boss!!
Judging by Emma's progress you're not shitty at all :)
@@zdrajcawielki1457 I second that :)
You've got a nice vibe of a Russian language teacher from early 80's of PRL. You'll succeed.
No, we just note that you are in the role even during the Christmas celebration! ;)
Ale za to masz fajny głos, jakby troszkę z chrypką. :)
I think that "Emma in Warsaw" is going to be much better story than "Emily in Paris" ;)
Or Kevin sam w domu :D
The Polish didn't have a problem with cracking enigma because it was still less complicated then polish gramma
In case your friends haven't explained it already, you don't really use wołacz (7th case, the one for calling people) in everyday life. Normally we use mianownik (the basic one) for that. Using wołacz for addressing people is a bit old fashioned and if someone's doing that it's not a standard, it's their stylistic choice. You use it though for or formal titles like "panie doktorze" or "panie prezydencie" (or "pani doktor", but feminine is so much less confusing) and a bit ironically, for isnulting people too ("idioto", "ty debilu"). Usually not with names, and we generally tend to think that if someone starts using wołacz they're pretty angry at you (just like using your full name)
That food was grilled, "oscypek" with cranberry. Basically it is a specially prepared smoked cheese, coming from the Polish mountains. I can confirm that it is delicious 😁
Actually you couldn't say that is "oscypek" because this originally is made from sheep milk which is available only in summer. In other seasons of the year this kind of cheese is made from cow milk which is more creamy but also great in taste :)
@@mateuszsalamon9406 You right, I forgot to add this information 😉
Ale z grilla i tak najlepsze.
@@mateuszsalamon9406 what? i thought oscypek is made from highlander's milk
Why the cat didn't have a sticky note saying "kot"?
raczej "tlusty kot".;)
Actually saying "Cześć Emmo" when greeting you sounds weird. I'd say "Cześć Emma". My name is Michał (english Michael) and people always say "Cześć Michał" , not "Cześć Michale" which sounds super serious and kinda awkward. But generally in polish you have to decline nouns. And it sucks, i know ;) Be that as it may, polish people understand that declining is a tough thing so don't worry. Just keep it up 😁
as a person who's first language is English and knows Polish too, her skills are insane. i am beyond impressed dude.
The lesson in changing your name depending on the situation was wonderful. Being Polish and thinking how complicated it is, I want dokładkę prosecco or even two
The main reason that the name is changing is that in polish language you're looking at the person or object like in 3D from every perspective. I love it.
You have mentioned that Poles are regarded as impolite. The author of "the suttle art of not giving a fuck" explained this phenomenon. We are honest and very direct when expressing opinions. It is a result of the communism. We had no time for worrying about others' feelings when communicating at the basic level, because we really had to know if we can trust you or not. And if we can trust each other then we can afford the brutal honesty.
haha love the sticky notes - thats exactly how I learned English before coming to London from Poland :D
and your Polish is so good!
doing the same with German right now, my room is covered with sticky notes :P but it does really work well ;)
Here's something to help you develop some intuition about how the cases work:
This is Emma - To jest Emma.
This is Emma's - To jest Emmy.
This is the closest thing the English language has to Polish cases. Hope it helps you understand how changing one letter in a sentence completely changes its meaning.
and word jeść can describe so many different verb actions :D
fajnie cię posłuchać po polsku, dobrze sobie poradziłaś z kupowaniem lizaka. nagrywaj więcej vlogów
I'm amazed by your Polish skills! I'm currently learning German, because I want to leave for work in Germany this year and sometimes it's tricky, but I can just imagine how much overwhelming can be learning Polish :D
Polish people are cold on the outside and suuuuper warm on the inside. Just takes a moment to get to that inside
Your pronunciation is amazing! You speak with a slight accent that’s why people say it’s cute (because it does sound cute - we pronounce words harder and you soften them which is so pleasant to my ears; I guess that’s the reason), but overall it’s very easy to understand you and at times you sound like a native speaker. You must be good at languages, I don’t know if you’re aware of that.
Anyways, happy new year! Hope it will be better than the previous one!
Please post more often!
Well polish may be complicated, however you can be very creative when it comes to swearing
Girl, keep going but remember:
In English: play.
In Polish: grać, graj, gra, grają, gram, grasz, gracie, gramy, etc..

Not complicated, its obvious 🤣
I’m having a panic attack
Yeach. Easy peasy😊
@@emmawitter8148 it's okay, they're making it difficult on purpose. it's easier when you divide the subjects and you notice you don't have to remember that much. the comment is just chaotic
This is why I’ll only stick to learning what I need to get around or basic conversation 😂
2:20 its oscypek with a probably a craneberry sauce, oscypek is traditional cheese made out of milk gathered from sheep. Its very difficult to differentiate the aries from sheep that's why this cheese is so salty hey.
Polish is very difficult. Even Poles fail at it. Arek is a name not last name. When You ask: "Jak się nazywasz" you're asking for last name. "Jak ci/masz na imię" is a question for name.
6:33 do not ever use MM/DD/YYYY again
Hey happy 01/09/22 xoxo
@@emmawitter8148 Happy 9.01.22 :P

@@emmawitter8148 While I know it's just fun, but be careful when you write a date to someone in Poland without confirming it with them. I know Americans are used to MM/DD compared to Poles using DD/MM, so giving us a date like 02/03/2022 could easily end in trouble ;p Less of an evil with dates like 03/18/22 where people will figure out what you mean, but yeah ;p
@@VanganPL i get so stressed filling out official documents lol
In that case drink refill is "dolewka", "dokładka" refers mainly to food 👍 You're making such great progress in learning Polish, just awesome!
5:25 One time I heard from my English teacher that Polish people gained bad reputation of "being impolite" because of... loan translating. She stated that using conditionals, word "please" and generally expressing some level of uncertainty for making requests is quite ubiquitous in the English language, while for Polish speakers this is a bit more formal and official, when you don't necessarily know a person that well. Moreover, some number of expats in the US or in the UK don't know English that well, so instead of using a bit more sophisticated phrases to make a request, they tend to use imperatives and simply skip the "please" because of the said reason. If that's the case, I wouldn't say that it's done on purpose, just a (minor?) lack of language skills. I've heard that opinion once, so I thought it might be a good occasion to actually verify that ;)
Lovely video, enjoy your stay in Poland!
"You don't ask that question in Poland, girl." LOL
"Emmą?"
"Emmą!"
"That is not my name!" XD I died
It's motivating to see you struggling through Polish. I've been living in Wrocław for one year and I still only know the basics (didn't put in the work, though)
Greetings from a Spanish expat living in Poland
Please, keep making videos, I love them!
Respect for NOT recording Wigilia! I personally think it's this type of time when one should be fully present, and experience it without any distractions e.g. recording it :)
I will keep it simple: we need more vlogs.
I know exactly how you feel. My polish level is very much like yours so i could totally relate!. Just spend Christmas and NYE in Warsaw with the in-laws. Ornaments, slippers and carols are a big thing!
Your face when they explain stuff of conjugation is literally every time me when i'm there!
Keep up the great work Emma!
Your progress in learning polish is actually impressive! Love how you mixing polish and english in your sentences :D Thank you for another video, it was great to watch!
i love these videos sm they make me feel so at home as someone who isnt in poland right now
From 2:00 to 2:25: fluent! 😊
Przypominasz mi moją córkę (trochę starsza od ciebie). Brałem ją do polskiego sklepu w New Jersey, stałem z boku a ona sama kupowała, bardzo przejęta swoją rolą, łezka się w oku kręci. I love to watch your videos because you have a sense of humor and you are so natural.
Greetings from Jacksonville, Florida.
GIRL you’re so brave for just going out and speaking Polish especially in shops and stuff! I’m learning German but I’m always too scared to speak to natives, how do you get over the fear?
Love the aesthetic of the blogs btw
2:26 - Oscypek :p Bigos without bread... Profane! XD Our reputation is what it is, because we are honest when we don't like something, we talk about it out loud. if you are misbehaving, you are being mistreated. :P You speak great Polish for such a short period of time, with almost no accent. People who live here for a dozen or so years have a worse pronunciation :P
I always like how foreigners find something in Poland cute and then I think about it and I'm like "shit, she's right lol, I've never saw it that way"
So about the phonecall.... There's this guy at Radio Zet called Nosel. And he pulls phone pranks on people. Usuallu he's pretending to be a woman from some sort of legal institution. And - I kid you not - he did the "registration of farm animals" bit. And you can listen to it on the radio zet website. I wonder if it was the same situation or not...
btw no one is gonna say to you "cześć, Emmo" it will be just "Hej, Emma" usually, teaching foreign languages is usually too formal and outdated to make any sense so just ignore it. Much like no English speaker naturally talks the way they teach you in Polish schools. least not any young person I know =/
02:02 No i pięknie :) Nice & smooth ;)
02:26 Looks like "oscypek" - a smoked cheese made of sheep's milk, which is a traditional regional meal in the south of Poland. Here it's grilled and with addition of "żurawina" (cranberry). And it looks delicious :g...
03:37 "Big O's" :) (a nice way to remember) Interestingly, different regions of Poland have different traditional meals for the Christmas Eve's supper. And it may also depend on the family. In my family, we don't have bigos for Christmas supper, but we have it for New Year's Eve ;)
03:33 Bigos na winie - co się nawinie, to do bigosu :) (a word play that says: Bigos on wine - whatever you have at hand, comes into the bigos :D )
02:45 Nice! I hope they showed you some of the Polish Christmas traditions and traditional meals ;) BTW in case you got tired of that American Christmas music (I am :q and I'm not even American), there's a nice collection of traditional Polish Christmas carols that you can get for free on Accantus Studio's website. There are 2 CDs, one blue, one red. I don't remember which one was instrumental, but they are really professionally performed, with lots of nice-sounding musical instruments and singing :) I once showed it to some of my friends from other countries and they really loved it.
05:20 Nice :) I remember one time a friend from France was visiting us on Christmas. He was alone at that time, so we invited him to eat the Christmass supper with us. He was very touched, and afterwards he cried too, because he felt like home with us, like if he were a part of our family. But there's a funny story involved as well, because he wanted to learn all about our Christmas traditions. First he learnt that one is not supposed to get up and walk away from the table until the supper ends, otherwise it's a bad luck, and someone might die :q Then he learned that if one of the candles on the table fades away before the supper ends, it's another bad omen that someone might die (his metaphorical candle will fade away). A while later we noticed that he went surprisingly silent out of a sudden, after hearing all that, so we asked him if everything is OK. He replied that he has the urge to cough, because he's unsure if it won't mean that someone will die as well :J So we replied: "No, it's just these two, all other traditions are good" ;)
05:30 Oh, it's the usual: the bad apples are always the loudest, and they ruin the reputation for all the others.
06:12 Just wait for the summer and sandals with socks! :D
08:02 Is your teacher a native? Because it doesn't sound like it. As for declensions: you don't need to learn all the forms at once. Actually it's better to learn them in series, each case separately, within their usual contexts of use. Try looking for patterns, because there are certain groups of similar words (conjugation classes) that follow the same patterns within a group. Then add other forms as you need them, by contrasting.
08:22 I would suggest replacing that teacher. She's overpronunciating these words, making them sound painfully correct. Nobody speaks like that, even professional voice actors, let alone ordinary people. Most of the people would just hold one "m" for twice as long time.
Odmiana przez przypadki ;) nawet Polacy mają z tym problemy Emmo, więc luz ;)
Oh my god, it's horrible when you use that american date notation mm/dd/yyyy - WE HATE IT IN POLAND, IT MAKES NO SENSE TO DISPLAY A DATE LIKE THIS :D
Worst thing is when you see a movie trailer and it says that premiere is on 02 04 2022 and you have to check if it's in February or in April cause you never know which notation was used.
It's American way. They are so free that uses imperial system of the former occupants.. ;)

Yours is one of my favourite Polish vlogs. I love your imperfect style of editing, I find it more immersive than a 'polished movie'
Bravos for courage for coming to Poland :)
Hi Emma, Im curious what is your language background because you are getting polish accent way to easily.

I would recommend you going to Zakopane and skiing, imo Polish mountains are best part od this country especially in winter

Omg I love your video! I live in Germany, about 1 1/2 hours by car away from the German/Polish border and I have a boyfriend. We are together since March last year and I’ve spent for the first time X-Mas in Warszawa and god it’s so cool. I had to giggle several times during your video because you remind me of myself 😄 I‘m using Polish as much as I can even if I still don’t really know cases (cases are annoying) but I think with the time it gets better. And I am also like „dafaq?! DLACZEGO?!“ keep on going! I love it :D
To the Polish posters, please note that "Polish" is written with upper-case "P" in the English language. The word "polish" refers to either furniture polish or shoe polish.
Już prawie Emmilia Wittkowska 😉
God I love every single video you make, and you’ll probably won’t ever see this, but I genuinely enjoy and cherish each and every minute of these vlogs. Your humor and kindness brings joy to my face whenever I see your new video and I just want to appreciate you, and your attitude towards others. Keep learning Polish you’re doing great and don’t ever give up!
PS: As a Pole I didn’t even know people could be that kind in this country tbh xD
Also some sweet/cute versions will be: EMMUSIA or EMMUNIA :)
Happy New Year! Your Polish is getting better. 😀
"Why are they doing this?
I dont know.." that pretty much sums up polish
What a great video.....dzięki i Szczęśliwego Nowego Roku Emma!!!
"Jak jest 'F*** This' po polsku?" - it's an appropriate theme for a Ph.D dissertation with pre-word from prof. Miodek.
Yeah, Polish vulgarisms can be used in so many different contexts and mean so many different things and are so nuanced, that one could write an entire book about it. It;s like Smurfs with their "smurf" word ;)
All the best in 2022, Emma!
Girlllll, I'm enjoying your videos soooo much! :D Also, I'm hugely impressed by your progress in speaking Polish, you're starting to sound freaking good!
Omg its so heartwarming to hear you speaking so good in Polish. Keep up a good work ❤️
Witaj Emmo! Happy new year! It must have been a blast teaching you cases in Polish :) Have fun and double down on it. Polish is easy once you get the hang of the basics. English on the other hand... Good luck picturing tenses in number greater than three! Time is linear you know! Cheers!
hi!! just wanted to say that your polish pronunciation is really good! you speak very clearly and it's easily understandable, good job emma :D
Zajebiście! Wesołego nowego roku!

Happy New Year Emma!
Take care and stay strong!
In which universe is the bigos a Christmas dish? Originally it was prepared after hunting from all the meat you can not eat from barbecue. In Cracow there was no meat on Wigilia (Chtistma' Eve) still like 15 years ago.
Well I eat bigos on Christmas Eve but I don't know if it's even bigos since it doesn't contain meat Then it's more like just "kapusta"
@@jakub4134 @Slavomir Czekaj yeah, it is bigos without meat but with mushrooms, in my familiy it's called kapusta wigilijna to differentiate them
in my family we don't eat bigos because of the rule of no meat on christmas eve
Hej Emma, czy podczas świąt, albo kiedykoliwek słuchałaś Polskich kolęd? Jeśli tak, co o nich sądzisz?
Hey Emma, did you listen to any Polish Christmas carols during the holidays or ever? If yes, what do you think about them?
Love your videos! The improvement in speaking polish is incredible!
Love seeing a new video from you in my feed! Happy belated New Year! 🥳🥳
ENG: I love your films, watching someone learning Polish is very interesting and inspiring (and sometimes kinda funny :) )
Ps. sorry for grammar mistakes
PL: Uwielbiam Twoje filmy, oglądanie kogoś, kto uczy się języka polskiego jest bardzo ciekawe i inspirujące ( i czasami zabawne :) )
Ps. Przepraszam za błędy gramatyczne
You still write dates in a wrong way. The most common and preferable by most is dd/mm/YY.
I thought I would never see this vlog, now we're waiting for your new years eve experience and we can all kick off with 2022 😁
Mega zarąbisty film. Mood płynący z niego jest niesamowity.

Jesteś jedną z fajniejszych Emm jakie widziałem. ;-)
Yep, plural here.
Last part where Emma's friend teaches Bonus polish lesson is the best part of the entire video. It was funny and cute.
How to say "fuck it" - and that`s where magic begins :D
No! U cute!
I already miss christmas!
Świetnie Ci idzie z polskim✌🏻
Przecież można mówić: Cześć Emma i Cześć Emmo. Tak jak: Cześć Marta i Cześć Marto (nawet "Marta" lepiej pasuje) albo Cześć Justyna/Justyno. Tym bardziej, że słowo Cześć jest nieformalne.
Ale chodzi o używanie wołacza a nie mianownika
No raczej chyba każdy tak mówi mówiąc cześć. Nikt nie mówi cześć Kamilu, Rafale, Piotrze tylko cześć Kamil, cześć Rafał, cześć Piotr.
To prawda, wolacz jest zanikający.
@@mysteriousdoge1298 ja tak mówię. 😄
"why are you doing this?"
"I DON'T KNOW"
this is the most accurate exp[lanation it is what it is, deal with it, suffer
This 80' vibe is everything
I am really enjoying your vlogs. I am from Warsaw but I live abroad, so I'm not there as much anymore. It's wonderful to see my hometown through someone else's eyes - very refreshing and heartwarming. Thank you for sharing, Emma. I hope everyone is having a great beginning to 2022. 🖤 P.S. one of my really good friends is from state Missouri, what a small world.
Emma, please upload 30 min of Polish language practice you mentioned in the previous video. I wish you Happy New Year.
Twoje filmy są coraz lepsze :)
This was so entertaining!! :D I love it :D
