hey guys so this is my first log and hope you guys enjoy it
Why I began?
well really I never intended to learn Polish . I have many polish friends and i sort of absorbed it rather
than actively learning it.
After i could speak a great deal i decided to take the GCSE Polish exam which all the natives were taking
and the.college agreed i passed which I was over the moon about.
Then my friend and his family invited me to poland where i got to.spend.2 week talking with real poles I
was so grateful
now I intend to get to a C1 level I am.very good at Polish. I have always had problems with the cases
but i have finally found a.book to help Hurra po polsku it is a god send.
what I am doing at the moment.
I have decided to start studying polish actively again.
I am using:
Hurra.Po.polsku 1
along with watching tv,movies and reading all the Polish books I have.
Level wanted C1
lw
level at:A2-B1
thanks for reading all guys looking forward to the comments

Hi, DarrenDaka, I wanted to wish you good luck with languages in 2013 and I am looking forward to reading
about your studies! You might want to change your log title, though, so that it has the team name, Żubr.

A GCSE in Polish is impressive - I've looked at some previous exam papers and I'm not quite there yet.
As Amerykanka mentioned, please change 'zabur' to Żubr, by editing your title. Thanks and good luck.

Hey guys not updated my log for a while. I am still working through Hurra Po Polsku 1 and watching programs in Polish. I recently purchased a book of Polish anphorisms which is great as I am hoping to learn the culture well, so they are very helpful :)
What is everyone else doing for Polish ?
:))

Not much! I got off to a very slow start this year for various reasons.
That should change soon and I'll be updating my log soon.
What is the title of the book you got?

For now, I'm just plowing through "Polish in 4 Weeks - II" with a short exercise involving a comic strip or cartoon. See example here.

"First Year Polish" in ebook form from the internet, listening to music by Polish artists, using Anki to make sure I actually know the words :)
