Let's start by learning the vocabulary for different relationship statuses in Polish. Here are some of the most commonly used terms:
| Polish | Pronunciation | English |
|---|---|---|
| Stan wolny | stahn VOHL-ni | Single |
| Zajęty/zajęta | zah-YEN-tih/zah-YEN-tah | Taken (male/female) |

| Wdowiec/wdowa | VDŌ-veyts/ VDŌ-vah | Widow/widower (male/female) |
- Stan wolny, meaning "single," is the term used to describe someone who is not in a romantic relationship.
- Zajęty/zajęta means "taken" and is used to describe someone who is currently in a relationship.
- Narzeczony/narzeczona means "engaged" and is used to describe someone who is going to get married.

Cultural Information
Relationship status is an important topic in Poland, with many people valuing long-term committed relationships. The traditional family structure is still prevalent in Polish society, with marriage often seen as a crucial step towards forming a family.
It is also common for Polish couples to live together before getting married. This is known as "koczownictwo przedmałżeńskie" and is seen as a way to test the relationship before making a long-term commitment.
When it comes to divorce, the process can be quite lengthy and complex in Poland. It is also not as common as in some other Western countries.
In terms of widowed individuals, it is common for them to wear black clothing for a period of time following their spouse's death, as a sign of mourning.
Practice
Now that you have learned the vocabulary for different relationship statuses in Polish, let's practice using them in sentences! Here are some example phrases to get you started:
- Jestem singlem. (I am single.)
- On jest zajęty. (He is taken.)
- Ona jest narzeczoną mojego brata. (She is my brother's fiancée.)
- Oni są małżeństwem od 10 lat. (They have been married for 10 years.)
- On jest rozwiedziony. (He is divorced.)
- Ona jest wdową. (She is a widow.)
Try practicing these phrases with a friend, or use them to start a conversation with a Polish speaker!
