Polish Grammar - Nouns

Hi Polish learners! 😊
In today's lesson, we will be exploring the basics of Polish nouns. We'll look at the different types of nouns, their gender, and how to form plurals. By the end of this lesson, you will have a better understanding of Polish nouns and be able to use them correctly in your own writing.

Types of Nouns

Nouns in Polish can be divided into two main categories: common nouns and proper nouns. Common nouns are words that refer to general things, such as "house" or "dog". Proper nouns are words that refer to specific people, places, or things, such as "Kraków" or "John".

Gender

In Polish, nouns have gender. This means that each noun is either masculine, feminine, or neuter. The gender of a noun affects the form of adjectives and verbs used with it. For example, the word for "cat" (kot) is masculine, so the adjective used to describe it would be "mądry" (intelligent).

Plurals

In Polish, nouns can be singular or plural. To form the plural of a noun, you usually add an ending to the singular form. For example, the plural of "house" (dom) is "houses" (domy). The ending you add depends on the gender and the last letter of the singular form.

Conclusion

In this lesson, we have looked at the basics of Polish nouns. We have seen that nouns can be either common or proper, and that they have gender and can be singular or plural. With this knowledge, you should now be able to use Polish nouns correctly in your own writing.
