I didn’t realize how simple English grammar is until I started with Polish. No gender for nouns, adjectives and verbs. No cases for nouns, adjectives, and numbers. Only 2 or 3 verb conjugations. No verbal aspect. Fixed meanings for prepositions. Simple logical word order (like computer code) to replace all complex inflections. Plural, just add an S. No plural for adjectives.
😂😂
in whole youtube there is no one could explain the same like you ,thank you very much
Yes, that's true. They are explaining it in their language. Do they think that learners will understand it clearly without knowing their language first? So I finally found this channel and it makes me feel relieved 😌.. Thank you so much Monika.
So true
These case videos are saving my life! Dziękuję Monika!

Now, please make videos on remaing cases, and please also start
Madam please also start Polish tenses soon.
You are really a great teacher.
I was looking at the title and I was like ... Instrumental singular... Instrumental... Oh! That's the one I like!
I don't know why I like it but maybe it's because whenever I see it, I recognize it. Who knows. I gave up Polish when I hit the prepositions. But it was 10 months, but it was 1985, so now I'm trying a slap dash approach. I'm sure that will work but I might learn some new words or something. I still won't be able to make a sentence but I might be able to read a few of them. I always get excited when I can read one without looking anything up.
(I got a notebook but I think index cards might have been better. Luckily I saw some somewhere in my house the other day. Now I just have to remember where... They were multicolored. I can't remember what I bought them for but it was ages ago. I'm betting it was more than a decade ago)
Thabk you!!!
Please like all of her videos so more people are suggested these high quality videos. ☝
Pani Moniki, świetna lekcja!
Pani Moniko 😄
Thank you for the lesson! I have one question for you, Where did you learn english and why?
Hi there, Im repeating A1 and wondering which course do you recommend I buy from your website if I wish to reach B1 in 12-14 months
Szkoda, że tego kanału nie znałazłem 5 lat temu, gdy potrzebowałem poprawić swój polski. 😀
Thanks I found you here...I had a hard time in school because no one can explain with English translation...

Hi Monika,
I watched your videos on the other cases (not finished yet) and I am trying to take notes over everything to learn them.
But now I am a bit confused because both in the genitive case (at 17:23) and here (at 9:37) in the instrumental you said that it was use in some time expressions (except that genitive also include dates). Would you like to provide maybe more information/example that shows how to chose between genitive or instrumental when time expression are used ?
And thanks a lot for all the great content you make, this is very helpful and also very clrearly explained=)
Hi, different cases can be used in various time expressions, when answering 'when?'. Some cases often come with certain prepositions, pronouns or adjectives, some without. Often they might have a similar meaning! Compare:
tej nocy - this night (genitive case)
w tę noc - (on) this night (accusative case)
w nocy - at night, during the night (locative case)
nocą - at night, during the night (instrumental case)
The best method to learn all this is to read and listen to Polish texts a lot, so that you can automize the most frequent phrases.
@@PolishwithMonikaOhhh I see, thank you very much for your making it 'clearer'. And I think it's also really nice from you to take the time to answer in the comments. So thanks a lot for doing so =)
would you consider adding the ""thanks" button to your channel? I will most likely use it :))
Good idea! I have just activated the button. Let's see how it goes!
ale jesteś świetny

@@swetoniuszkorda5737 did you just assume xe gender?
@@jankowalski6338 I am not that good in Chinese;)
I'd like to give a slight suggestion regarding the examples you use, maybe you could use more personal examples from your daily life, even and especially if they would require slightly more complex sentences? It would make your examples more elevated and memorable. What I usually do is switch the examples myself to make them more personalised, but something a bit less generic I think would really help.
Thanks for the suggestion! I'll take this into account when designing future lessons :)
Why the sentence is - Jem łyżką and not Jem z łyżką?? 🤔🤔 Because my head is telling me - I'm eating a spoon, not- I'm eating with a spoon. Can you clarify that, please. 🙏👍
Not everything is always translated one to one. Often, one word in Polish can mean the same as two words in English.
Compare the sentences:
Jem łyżkę. - I am eating a spoon. ('łyżkę' is a word in the accusative case and expresses the direct object. Rather a hypothetical sentence, unless spoons are edible!)
Jem łyżką. - I am eating with a spoon. ('łyżką' is a word in the instrumental case and expresses the tool)
Jem z łyżką. - I eating with a spoon. = I am eating accompanied by a spoon. (This is rather a hypothetical sentence. I would imagine that here spoon would be a person sitting next to you at the table :)
@@PolishwithMonika I didn't see the ending. So it was ę, instead of ą, and that tells what's happening with the spoon. Thank you so much for the help. I'm still struggling a lot to understand those Polish cases. Nothing like that in English or Spanish. Again, thx a lot. 👍👍👍👌👌
Why -
Ona jest moja mama
&
Ona jest moją siostrą
& not Ona jest moja siostra?
Could you please explain or redirect me somewhere i can find this.
But Monika, doesn't your Polish nominative case also describe a subject with byc/to be? I an still unclear where the difference is (beyond that the instrumental case is used for describing people's jobs)Take "She is a cheerful child"/Ona jest wesolym dzieckiem. Surely the child is the subject of the sentence as in "To jest this/that", which takes the nominative case.?
By the way, I also find it odd that a case used for so many other things beyond using instruments/tools is called the instrumental case .
We can use either the nominative or the instrumental to describe the subject with 'być'.
If the predicative is an ADJECTIVE, then we use the NOMINATIVE.
Ona jest wesoła. - She is cheerful.
If the predicative is a NOUN or ADJECTIVE+NOUN , then we use the INSTRUMENTAL.
Ona jest dzieckiem. - She is a child.
Ona jest wesołym dzieckiem. - She is a cheerful child.
@@PolishwithMonika Monika, this is an excellent summary. I also now understand the instrumental can be used to describe the basic qualities of a person such as their job or "She is cheerful/Ona jest wesola". In your nominative case lecture you say that the nominative case is always used with to/this. Now what if we were to say "This is a person who is cheerful" or "This is a person who is a teacher."? Which case takes priority then? I wish Polish were simpler. (And it seems to come very close to saying "I eat a spoon."!)
Another point is " if the predicative is an adjective we use the nominative" . Okay but I think there is an exception to this rule: nationality adjectives ie They are English/French/Polish etc. Don't these adjectives still take the instrumental case?
Under Google Translate "I am eating a spoon" is actually listed as "Jem lyska". This is the same phrase as you used at the start of the lecture, Monika, for "I am using a spoon" . Perhaps it is wrong insofar as if lyska is feminine it should be "Jem lyske" (accusative) but notice how similar the words are. So this interestingly shows the slightest difference to a word can cause a big change in meaning.
The instrumental case clearly deals with instruments/tools but rather less clearly to learners a mishmash of other stuff that seems to hardly deserve the name instrumental.
You see (Widsesz) Polish has got so complicated to me that I have got a bit bogged down in detail. I hope I have not put other learners off. Best wishes to everyone...
In my video, I focused only on simple sentences, not to overcomplicate :)
In compound or complex sentences (clause + clause) we treat each clause individually.
This is a person who is cheerful. - To jest osoba, która jest wesoła. → To jest osoba. + Ta osoba jest wesoła.
This is a person who is a teacher. - To jest osoba, która jest nauczycielem/nauczycielką. → To jest osoba. + Ta osoba jest nauczycielem/nauczycielką.
Nationalities in Polish are nouns, e.g. Polak (a Pole, a Polish), Niemiec (a German), etc., that is why we use the instrumental case: Jestem Polakiem. On jest Niemcem.
If I didn't speak Polish like a native speaker, probably I'd never learn about cases in Polish because there are too much complicated. And there are too much exceptions. Maybe I would learn all the cases in a 1/2 months, but it would be very intense 1/2 month.
