Welcome to the Learn Polish Podcast where we delve into the intricacies of the Polish language. In this episode, we dissect the meaning of the word 'O'. The word 'O' is versatile and dynamic in the Polish language, posing an interesting challenge to learners. Let's unravel its mysteries together.
Primarily, 'O' translates to 'about' in English. We utilize it while talking about who or what we are thinking about, bringing to the forefront expressions like o kim myślisz or o czym myślisz, that translate to who are you thinking about or what are you thinking about respectively.
Contrarily, it could also mean 'at' in English during certain contexts, particularly while inquiring about the time. Consequently, we come up with phrases such as, 'O której godzinie budzisz się?' This translates to, 'At what time do you wake up?'.
Interestingly, 'O' is also used quite frequently when asking for something - 'I ask for your help' would be 'Proszę o pomoc' in Polish.
Join us on this linguistic journey as we continue to explore the depths of this lovely language. Give us your thoughts and share your experiences in the comments, and don't forget to subscribe for more enlightening episodes. Enjoy learning with us on Learn Polish Podcast!
