Polish need we learn English to be a somene Mine father Learned because he was a Colonel of Polish army who come To Nato in 1999 www.gov.pl/web/national-defence/poland-in-nato-20-years im see how he strugle to achived even the Polish troops around Uk in 1941 Have the same Problem we try to became Better
I teach English in Poland and I also have students who are pensioners. Their main reason to learn English is to keep their brains and memory running. They have problems with remembering but that is not a problem for them. They are asking a lot of questions😊 I am happy when they do that
Good idea. Some good writers were working in this project (for example famous Polish horror author Łukasz Orbitowski), famous director Tomasz Bagiński, famous actors and musicians. This movies are pure art.
My grandpa started to learn english when he retired. I think that he was 65 then (it was 1993 or 92). And the big reason was, that he bought Commodore 64 and he wanted to play games and most of them were in english 🙂. After a few years he was able to translate to polish almost everything that he read. His passion for computer games was also a great training for me, because i had to help him with the translations when he played. I miss my grandpa 🥲
@@CarriettaCarrieWhite Sorry, are you from the Netherlands? I noticed Dutch people often say "to learn" when they should say "to teach" ("I will learn you [how to do smth]" is my favourite example). I think it's because in Dutch "to learn" and "to teach" is the same word: "leren", so it'd be easy to forget that in English these are two completly defferent words, especially when one is so simillar to the Dutch one. (Well, in Polish it's also one word, but "uczyć" does not sound like any English word, so.)
When it was on Polish TV some six years ago I couldn't watch it without tears, so moving it was. Once I cried so much after watching this spot that my dad who's just entered the room asked what happened 😉 But it's nice that this spot sparked such enthusiastic reactions abroad. Allegro & Mr Mazurkiewicz (the actor playing that elderly man) did a wonderful job
W Polsce mieszka wielu Brytyjczyków mówiących płynnie po polsku. A wiesz, że ta reklama dostała Brązowego Lwa na festiwalu reklamowym Cannes Lions 2017 i wiele innych światowych nagród za tę reklamę. To był hit reklamowy na całym świecie. Reklamę obejrzało kilkadziesiąt milionów ludzi na całym świecie. Sama agencja reklamowa była w szoku, że to tak daleko poszło.
Może to śmieszne ale ja się cieszę, jak ktoś napisze dłuższy komentarz poprawnie po polsku i jeszcze użyje poprawnej formy biernika "tę reklamę", a nie "tą reklamę". To dzisiaj takie rzadkie.
@@movemelody1 Dziękuję ale ja jestem Polakiem ze starej szkoły. Co ja się wypracowań i dyktand napisałem w szkole to nawet nie chce mi się opowiadać. 😂
Actually, it's one of the best Polish commercials. Not many are even good enough. This was a real masterpiece when it came out. I'm wondering, you're not crying, I always do at the end. It's that sad and sweet. I'd love to watch more that meaningful commercials ☺️
Świetny odcinek❤ Moja koleżanka uczyła się dokładnie tak samo - by mogła porozumieć się z wnukami i może też z tamtą strona rodziny🧸 Uważam jednak, że dzieci powinny być wychowywane jako dwujezyczne, jakkolwiek mało popularny lub użyteczny byłby język któregoś z rodziców. 🎀
Nie oglądałem tego filmu allegro. Jest genialny. Rob powodzenia w nauce polskiego. Połamiesz sobie język nie raz i nie dwa. Ja też swój łamię, ucząć się angielskiego :)
@@Mario-xr3jo I have literally just had my 4th lesson. Got another 2 planned for next week and will be going most of the summer. A lovely lady is helping me as she teaches foreigners Polish :)
My wife, who's chinese, is learning polish, and she was also posting those sticky notes everywhere, and it made me crazy....you open your fridge sticky notes.. you open your wardrobe- sticky notes.... plot twist...5 years later she can still barely say anything
HI Rób I would recommend some polish comedies like ......Czterdziestolatek czyli rodzina w domu...Nie lube poniedziałku...Poszukiwany poszukiwana ... !!!!!! ...
Can you tell the story how it all began with your fascination with Poland? What was the reason of your first visit and why was it something more than a single adventure? If you have already explained it in a previous film, please, give me a link. I wish you all the best. I appreciate your films very much. Don't give up learning Polish.
There's actually many more reasons to learn languages than just communicate with people. First of all it's a great excercise for four brain and improves memory. Then, you get priceless knowledge about languages in general. Yes, it is frustrating sometimes, especcialy if it's a difficult language and you know nothing about languages from that gropup. But the bigger challenge the more satisfaction when you see you progress or find a connection and things are getting logicly whole. I'm learning Finnish, which is even harder than Polish and... yes, it's a great feeling when I discover where certain things come from. Fingers crossed!
I have been binging on you videos lately! great stuff.:) As far as learning Polish words, I find mind maps written on A4 papers with colors, drawings etc. the best for learning vocabulary (I am now learning Turkish from scratch and learnt English with them in high school)-I remember those English mind maps years later! I usually blue tac them on my closet, or next to my monitor or wherever you look at often. Hope that helps, greeting from Poland, have fun in Australia:D
Aww, I remember this ad, it is so sweet, remiinds me of my grandfather, I had a strong bond with, he never learnt english, but still he had A chance to visit England when his great grandson was born, do this ad always remiinds me of him
Rob, there are some foreign youtubers that have become really fluent in Polish. One of the most popular is a Japanese guy, running channel "Ignacy z Japonii ". Now he got married to a Polish girl and lives in Poland , but his Polish was amazing before he even came here for the first time. Ignacy learned Polish by himself and believe me, he is so professional now so that he could teach Polish linguistics to Poles at Universities. So, there is a bar set high, but everything is possible 😆😁 And the second issue which I wanted to raise before- Ignacy started to teach Japanese to Poles and his channel has evolved from being just about Poland to spreading Japanese culture and history and I think it's great. So, when you made that film about Polish folk dance and mentioned the English folk dance I though it would be a good idea if you added some info about English history and culture for example about English folk dances . I would love to see some videos with your comparisons of Polish and English food, dances, sports, approach to work, humour etc. We all would learn "both ways" , just as Ignacy does.
@@dorotabarbowska2184 But people who read our conversation at some later time may be surprised why I correct your spelling if there aren't any spelling mistakes in your (corrected) posts... And your vision can improve if you pay attention to what you're reading and writing...
@@dorotabarbowska2184 Well, it only takes to say "thank you" to appreciate someone's help without making corrections. Other people won't understand my remarks about incorrect spelling, etc. if they see everything in others' comments is perfect.
I love this ad. I used it once in my English lesson when we had a discussion with the students about Christmas commercials and buying Christmas presents. Notes are a great idea, but after some time, they may not only annoy your wife but you as well 😉 And btw, we call a computer mouse "mysz" or "myszka komputerowa" (the diminutive form is also commonly used).
I learned English playing games in English even when i could choose Polish language. Now i watch everything from English speaking countries in English and sometimes i switch on subtitles if i don't know some word. I have no problem with understanding almost everything in English but i got problem with speaking :)
1. You should try "Legendy Polskie" (Polish Legends) from Allegro. They're on YT with English subs on Allegro channel. Those are kinda modern versions of old Polish legends, like Mr. Twardowski, or Dragon of Wawel, or baba jaga, and so on. My favourite video is Basilisk and that one I recommend. 2. That may sound silly but try talking to Yourself while doing daily stuff. Like "Idę do kuchni" (I'm going to kitchen), "Muszę posprzątać pokój" (I have to clean the room), "Gdzie jest mój kubek?" (Where's my cup/mug?), and so on.
I taught my son to spell at an early age using labels for everything in the house. My bf's husband asked if I was going senile and needed the notes to remember what things were called. My friend (English school teacher) and myself just looked blankly at him and burst out laughing.
Ale twoja dusza jest mocno związana z Polską, Robert, to jest piękne. Ja kiedy widzę szkockie budynki,ulice,architekturę i ten deszczowy klimat, po prostu dostaję gęsiej skórki i strasznie się wzruszam. Wieczorami patrzę na szkockie ulice, budynki na Yt... i to jest uczucie nie z tego świata, jestem pewna, że kiedyś żyłam w Szkocji. I ze wszystkich wcieleń czuję, że te w Szkocji było dla mnie najistotniejsze...miłej nocy...
I went to South Downs College to learn English.I loved it so much .I started when I was 44 and I proud of it .I finished Level 2and I think the age doesn’t metres when you want to achieve you can.Good luck Rob you can do it 👍
I've seen this ad like 100 times and it still makes me emotional and put tears in my eyes 🥹 I really like your videos, I'm leaving a sub 😉 Have a lovely day!
Yup, the punch-line got me teared up. Loved your introduction "Cześć chłopaki" (Hi, boys). I know you wanted to say "Hi guys"... Off the top of my head, I can't think of the more correct word. Anyways, loved the video.
@@RobReacts1 You could say "Cześć, ludziska!" - "Hi, folks!" instead. Or "Witam, moi drodzy" - "Hello, my dears". Good luck in learning Polish seriously - seriously. ;)
When this add came out I just had my baby here in UK ( British hubby) and I couldnt go and just see my family and due to emergency with my brother daughter my oarents were unabke to visit me. I watch that and I cried.
Hi, I really like watching your videos and thank you for your interest in Poland. I'm sure you'll be able to learn Polish because you have a talent for it. If it makes you feel any better, I'm learning English now and it's not that easy either :) Warm greetings from Wrocław!
Hi Rob, Perhaps you could get in touch with Patrick Nay who moved to Poland a few years ago (I think he lives in Warsaw). He’s got many videos about Poland on YT and he can speak Polish quite well (yes it’s possible). Good luck in your linguistic journey- you can do it.
Yeah. Poster notes definitely willl help. I did use that tip when I was learning English and Norwegian. You will be familiar with many words much quicker. And I love that commercial BTW :)
I'm learning Dutch currently and although knownig English quite well and some German helps a lot, they use these throat sounds which are impossible to repreat for me without hurting my throat. So I feel for you knowing you need to struggle with all those ć, ź, szcz, czcz etc.
Super❤ Robert I encourage you to write down the first page in the form of situational sentences. You will learn the meaning of contextual words and future usage.
Hello Rob😅 .am Eva polish living in Peterborough near London. Just wanna say that was promotion of allegro similar site to ebay. Point of vid is :most important above all is family and unreplaceble....u cant buy it for money .but all other needed stuff (also to connect with family) u will buy in allegro....just wanted to explain u point of vid. And they recorded more as i can see them attached...
4:46 It's even funnier because "Pyjamas" in Polish is Piżama/Pidżama. So he overcorrect something that doesn't even need to be corrected since Polish has the same word.
I actually know a person who is related to this "grandpa" person. He's her uncle. And she's the one that have shown me this ad. I think it's very lovely and heatwarming..
O! I can teach you Polish. I love learning languages and how others learn languages. I'm actually learning English and I live in England. And your videos can help me ;)
You can try saying "Subskrybujcie i lajkujcie". A lot of Polish youtubers borrow English 'Like' and Polonize it into 'Lajkuj'. Remember though: "Ty lajkuj", "wy lajkujcie", "on, ona, oni lajkują" because in Polish nothing can be simple 😂
Ok Rob, 1st lesson for you, if you had a plate full of Pierogi what would you write on post-it card if there is only one left ;) I'm just teasing, I know you know.
6:05 In Britain, main doors open to the inside, while in Poland they open to the outside. When this guy is visiting his son in the UK, the door opens to the outside. What a coincidence.
What are you talking about, mate? They are mounted both ways. It may be some regulation introduced since we join EU, but in old buildings doors were whatever way they want. For safety reasons evacuation doors are always opening outside that in case of panicking crowd push they should always open... Except Russia, where few years ago people were trapped in burning mall or cinema because some moron put chains on emergency exits.
@@mil3k "Why do Front Doors Open Inwards? Posted on Feb 18, 2020 by Jude If you walk along a high street - you’ll find a range of push or pull signs showing you what way to open the shop door. This can sometimes be quite confusing; you might see some people trying to push a pull door or vice versa. But when it comes to front doors to your home, they almost always open inwards. But do you know why?" You can google the rest of this article.
@@nemeczek67 Could you elaborate a bit about your original statement that in Britain doors opens inward while in Poland outward? I would like to know some arguments proving it rather read an article about something completely different. Probably, I will read it because you made me curious.
It is sad that son did not teach his child polish language. Having bilingual children is such big opportunity. I know it is just advertising but I can't understand people who don't use their native language in home and don't even try to teach their children heritage and culture of mother land.
Learning polish for non-slavic native speaker must be really haed. I feel for you. 😂 I kind of understand the situation. I 've just started to learn hungarian and my brain is boiling. 😱
Learn polish is easy for everyone, just a bit of elbow grease and you become a master. Learn Polish that's a different kettle of fish. And yes, other Slavic language may help. 😂
Yes when we learn of language we always have a reason my reason was to teach of english because i want to know to understand very well a first game and have communication with each others from abroad of country Which i played everyday. After that when i start school life my study was easy because know this words very well then learn gramatical parts and it tooks me around 8 years goes by time i pass a test so i rank up to B2 level and today i stay on this day. And what a funny i understand very well what people said but there are some uncommon words which are not familiar with my dictonary so it made me trouble. Especially when i try on create on my words from my mouth. Also my gramatic is terrible because english has a lot of pasts so yeah it is hard to remind them all. So i stop continue learning and use my normal daily routine. And probably wont be better untill not came the moment ,when you used to on everyday as my main language. Like for example travel into journey.❤
@@mil3k i knew it someone came to talk about it .Unfortunate for you are waste of my time, because your lack of respect to the abroad people is nothing then my gramatic. Nice to meet you anyway I hope your 2nd life will be better next time.
Notes around the house is very good idea. Every time you see it you will remember more. Just remember not to overdo it. Start with key words and after you learn one replace it with another.

pijama is even more funny then you think because we have word for it: piżama and pronunciation is much closer to english one then using J sound :)
Its a name from Urdu and before then Persian
exactly, it's double funny
"Pyjama" is another version of "pidżama"/"piżama" in Polish, used by older people.

If it makes you feel any better, I'm learning English now and it's not that easy either :)
Warm greetings from Wrocław!
Haha am glad its not just me suffering with learning then :D
I'm watching this for a third time... always touching....
Hi Rob,
Perhaps you could get in touch with Patrick Nay who moved to Poland a few years ago (I think he lives in Warsaw). He’s got many videos about Poland on YT and he can speak Polish quite well (yes it’s possible). Good luck in your linguistic journey- you can do it.
Yeah. Poster notes definitely willl help. I did use that tip when I was learning English and Norwegian. You will be familiar with many words much quicker. And I love that commercial BTW :)
Rob,
I can imagine how Polish grammar is difficult for a foreigners ,that's I admire your willingness to learn....
You are so gentle ❤
kocham Twoje filmy, Robert :)
Cheers
Cześć 🇵🇱😜 awww this Allegro movie touches me 🥺 thank You 🤗
Looking forward to your chapters in Polish...
After all, you must expect some progress in your learning.
i cry everytime...
I'm learning Dutch currently and although knownig English quite well and some German helps a lot, they use these throat sounds which are impossible to repreat for me without hurting my throat. So I feel for you knowing you need to struggle with all those ć, ź, szcz, czcz etc.
Super❤ Robert
I encourage you to write down the first page in the form of situational sentences. You will learn the meaning of contextual words and future usage.
Hello Rob😅 .am Eva polish living in Peterborough near London. Just wanna say that was promotion of allegro similar site to ebay. Point of vid is :most important above all is family and unreplaceble....u cant buy it for money .but all other needed stuff (also to connect with family) u will buy in allegro....just wanted to explain u point of vid. And they recorded more as i can see them attached...
I can't wait for a Polish-speaking Rob 👍 good luck mate 👊
Hey Robert, don't forget to write the words on the cards both, as they are spelled and as they are pronounced. 😅
4:46 It's even funnier because "Pyjamas" in Polish is Piżama/Pidżama. So he overcorrect something that doesn't even need to be corrected since Polish has the same word.
Older people are sometimes used to say "pyjama" in Polish.
Made me cry
I actually know a person who is related to this "grandpa" person. He's her uncle. And she's the one that have shown me this ad. I think it's very lovely and heatwarming..
damn, you've really got quite good at polish pronunciation
congratulations man
this ad always makes me cry
O! I can teach you Polish. I love learning languages and how others learn languages. I'm actually learning English and I live in England. And your videos can help me ;)
Rob I hope to see a lot of stickers on items behind you next time 😉. Keep going.
You can try saying "Subskrybujcie i lajkujcie".
A lot of Polish youtubers borrow English 'Like' and Polonize it into 'Lajkuj'.
Remember though: "Ty lajkuj", "wy lajkujcie", "on, ona, oni lajkują" because in Polish nothing can be simple 😂
Robert is a great name.
haha I prefer Rob
@@RobReacts1Just watch out for the police 😜
Since the 6th grade of primary school I had english lessons, which is about 20 years ago and I still have headaches:)
So don't worry. You can do it.
yes
Ok Rob, 1st lesson for you, if you had a plate full of Pierogi what would you write on post-it card if there is only one left ;) I'm just teasing, I know you know.
Post-it notes work well, my son placed they everywhere years ago, when he started to learn english 😉
6:05 In Britain, main doors open to the inside, while in Poland they open to the outside. When this guy is visiting his son in the UK, the door opens to the outside. What a coincidence.
What are you talking about, mate? They are mounted both ways. It may be some regulation introduced since we join EU, but in old buildings doors were whatever way they want.
For safety reasons evacuation doors are always opening outside that in case of panicking crowd push they should always open... Except Russia, where few years ago people were trapped in burning mall or cinema because some moron put chains on emergency exits.
@@mil3k "Why do Front Doors Open Inwards?
Posted on Feb 18, 2020 by Jude
If you walk along a high street - you’ll find a range of push or pull signs showing you what way to open the shop door. This can sometimes be quite confusing; you might see some people trying to push a pull door or vice versa. But when it comes to front doors to your home, they almost always open inwards. But do you know why?"
You can google the rest of this article.
@@nemeczek67 Could you elaborate a bit about your original statement that in Britain doors opens inward while in Poland outward? I would like to know some arguments proving it rather read an article about something completely different.
Probably, I will read it because you made me curious.
TO MIŁOŚĆ BEZWARUNKOWA ❤ GREATING FROM POLAND
I love this ad. It always makes me sad, though. Very deep and meaningful.
Sad indeed.
It is sad that son did not teach his child polish language. Having bilingual children is such big opportunity. I know it is just advertising but I can't understand people who don't use their native language in home and don't even try to teach their children heritage and culture of mother land.
@@inka1780 I do agree. *Polish language
Nice reaction, thanks! I wonder how are your Polish lessons :-)
Learning polish for non-slavic native speaker must be really haed. I feel for you. 😂 I kind of understand the situation. I 've just started to learn hungarian and my brain is boiling. 😱
*Polish *Hungarian
Polak, Węgier ... . Chcącej nie dzieje się krzywda. ;)
Learn polish is easy for everyone, just a bit of elbow grease and you become a master. Learn Polish that's a different kettle of fish. And yes, other Slavic language may help. 😂
I cry every time I see this video, even though I know it by heart
Yes when we learn of language we always have a reason my reason was to teach of english because i want to know to understand very well a first game and have communication with each others from abroad of country
Which i played everyday.
After that when i start school life my study was easy because know this words very well then learn gramatical parts and it tooks me around 8 years goes by time i pass a test so i rank up to B2 level and today i stay on this day.
And what a funny i understand very well what people said but there are some uncommon words which are not familiar with my dictonary so it made me trouble.
Especially when i try on create on my words from my mouth.
Also my gramatic is terrible because english has a lot of pasts so yeah it is hard to remind them all.
So i stop continue learning and use my normal daily routine.
And probably wont be better untill not came the moment ,when you used to on everyday as my main language.
Like for example travel into journey.❤
*Are you taking the piss, mate?* If this is a legendary B2 level I'm so happy that I learnt the language before these levels were introduced. 😂
@@mil3k i knew it someone came to talk about it .Unfortunate for you are waste of my time, because your lack of respect to the abroad people is nothing then my gramatic.
Nice to meet you anyway I hope your 2nd life will be better next time.
To trzeba przyznać Allegro, że w reklamy to oni umiejo dobrze
It's like a John Lewis advert at Christmas in the UK, just better. We don't do Christmas adverts.
sabskrabujcie😆🤣🤣okej, sabskrabujemy. Love it😁
Yup, I recommend post-it notes on things. This is how I am trying to memorize Spanish words 😉
Notes around the house is very good idea. Every time you see it you will remember more. Just remember not to overdo it. Start with key words and after you learn one replace it with another.
I will have to :)
@@RobReacts1
And don't try to memorize words on their own. Learn them in context, or even better, in different contexts.
