Language of Poland

The official language in Poland is Polish. In some parts of Russia, Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine and Kazakhstan, Polish is also used as a second language. This phenomenon is caused by border changes, migrations and relocations. The total number of Polish speakers around the world is about 50 million.

Polish belongs to the West Slavic group of Indo-European languages, along with Czech and Slovak. The Polish language has developed so much that texts written in the Middle Ages are not understandable to Poles and require a dictionary to read them. Like other Indo-European languages, Polish has Latin grammar and vocabulary.

There are a number of dialects in Poland that differ from standard Polish, but the differences between them are not significant and mostly relate to regional pronunciations and word variations. The most distinct dialects are Silesia and Podhale (highlander dialect).

The Polish alphabet is based on the Latin one, using numerous di-, tri- and tetragraphs. The official language of Poland consists of 32 letters.

Many words have been borrowed from German, French and English, and there are many words that may be spelled and pronounced the same but have a completely different meaning.

The Polish language is quite understandable to those who speak Russian, and even more understandable to those who speak Ukrainian. But there are some Polish words that you just need to learn because they have a completely or slightly different meaning, and sometimes a completely different one.

Do you have a Polish friend or an exchange student from Poland, Lithuania, Belarus or Ukraine? Are you planning a trip to Eastern Europe? Although many Poles (especially younger generations) speak enough English (which is an international language) to understand “Hi” or “Hello,” greeting people in their native language is a great way to start a conversation and make new friends. In Polish, just like in Russian, there are many ways to say hello. Knowing these various phrases (as well as traditions in Polish greetings) can be very useful if you are eager to use them when meeting someone.

Steps

Part 1

Using Common Greetings

To say "hello" in Polish, say "cześć". This very common, although somewhat informal, greeting is pronounced "chechch". Non-native speakers may have difficulty pronouncing this word correctly. In Russian, the sound “ch” almost never comes after the sound “sh”.

To say "good afternoon", use "dzień dobry". This greeting, which literally translates to "good afternoon", is pronounced "jen DO-bree". The first syllable is consonant with the English name Jane (“Jane”). The ending "y" sounds like the "i" in the English words "fin", "dinner" and "sick".

• This is a more formal way of saying hello, and would be appropriate for greeting strangers or people you deal with in a professional setting (such as customers, bosses, teachers, etc.).
• "Dzień dobry" also means "good morning".

1. To say "good evening", use "dobry wieczór". Pronounced "DOB-ree VI-chor." "Dobry" is pronounced the same as in the phrase "dzień dobry". The letter W at the beginning of the word "wieczór" is pronounced like B, and Not ka English UE.

   • Just like in Russian, this greeting can be used to greet people at sunset and before dark. "Dobry wieczór" has the same level of formality as "dzień dobry".

2. To say "hello/great", use "hej". Pronounced the same way as the English word "hey". This is a very familiar and informal greeting. It should not be used in a formal situation or with people with whom you intend to maintain a professional relationship. It is better to use this greeting among close friends.

   • "Hey" in Polish is the same as "hello" in Russian.

3. Say "witam" if you are greeting guests and playing the role of host. The word is pronounced “wee-tam.” The letter W in the first syllable is pronounced V. In the second syllable, the "a" sound is soft, as in the English word "apartment".

   Part 2

   We use greetings in accordance with traditions

   1. When in doubt, opt for semi-formal/formal greetings. In Poland, as in Russia, people usually do not greet strangers in the same way as friends. These greetings are more reserved and formal. Therefore, it is often better to use more formal expressions such as "dzień dobry" rather than the rather risky "hej" or "cześć".

      • Of course, after getting to know a person, you can usually move on to informal greetings in everyday conversation. However, if you are still not confident in speaking Polish, it may be worth playing it safe and adapting to the tone of your interlocutor.

   2. Use "Pan" or "Pani" when addressing a man or woman by their last name. Showing respect is a significant element when it comes to greetings in the Polish community, especially in business/formal settings. Based on this, you may want to address people by their title until you are prompted to call them by their first name. If you don't know the honorific for the person, use "Pan" for men and "Pani" for women.

      • In the word "pan" the "ah" sound is soft, like in the English word "apartment".
      • "Pani" starts the same as "Pan" and ends with an "i" sound, like the English words "bee" or "see".
      • Polish surnames end in "ski", varying depending on gender. So the man will have the surname Polanski (Polanski), and the woman will have Polanska (Polanska).
      • Don't be offended if the person doesn't tell you to call them by their first name. Letting someone into your “inner circle” is a huge social step for Poles. Many business and professional relationships last for years before they "move to the next level."

   3. Greetings everyone at a social event, but women first. When you go “out”, for example, to a party or corporate event, according to etiquette, it is important to say hello to everyone present in the room. If you miss someone or don't pay attention, it may be perceived as rude or disrespectful. Traditionally, in Polish society, women are greeted first. But usually the host does the opening remarks, so you probably don't have to worry about that.

      Shake hands in greeting and maintain eye contact. You can also shake hands when saying goodbye (again, making eye contact).

      If you are a man and a woman greets you by holding out her hand (palm down), take it, lean in and kiss it respectfully; never raise a woman's hand to your lips. It's a little old-fashioned, but is still considered good manners. Close friends and family members usually greet each other with a kiss on the cheek.

      • Grown men and teenage boys who don't know each other well shake hands, and acquaintances often kiss each other on the cheek. And this is not at all a sign of romantic affection. This can be done without any hints by two people close to each other, for example, people of different or the same sex, brothers and sisters, parents and children, and so on.
      • In Poland, the tradition is to use two or three kisses - the first on the right cheek, the second on the left and again on the right.

   4. Hugs are common among almost all Poles. Don't worry if an overly friendly host hugs you like you're old friends. Get into the spirit of giving and receiving.

      • When visiting, it is quite common for a guest to bring a small gift, such as a bouquet of flowers, candy or alcohol. However, flowers are the most popular and expected. If you bring flowers, their number should be odd.
      • Do not give chrysanthemums; they are often brought to funerals.
      • Refrain from very expensive gifts, as this may embarrass the owner.

   5. Don't be offended if you are hosting but don't receive a gift. If you receive it, do not forget to thank the person and see what it is. In Polish, a rude person who ignores social rules of etiquette is called "prymitywny" (literally, "primitive"). Luckily, avoiding this label is simple: you just need to make a sincere effort to greet people with respect and treat them with the dignity and kindness that you would want to be treated. If you are not fluent in Polish, you may make a few minor etiquette mistakes while in the Polish-speaking community. But as long as you try your best to be polite and admit mistakes, you'll be fine. Anyone who criticizes you for minor flaws in a language you are unfamiliar with is prymitywny.
