Polish Crush-Course for Steemians (mini dictionary)steemCreated with Sketch.

in #steemfest6 years ago (edited)

Steemfest is coming soon. We are all going to Kraków to meet with people from the whole world. Inspired by @jeanpi1908 and motivated by @theaustrianguy (I know I am late for the contest) I created mini polish-english dictionary. Kraków is the most touristic city in Poland, english speakers you will find mostly everywhere but anyway it's nice to know some words in local language. Keep in mind that I am not linguist, so pronunciation may be wrong...
