Learn Polish - Yes it is / No it isn't
In this lesson we'll see how we can reply to questions that we formed in the previous lessons with yes it is and no it isn't.
The Polish for 'yes' and 'no' are short and easy to learn
- Yes - Tak
- No - Nie
'Nie' also means 'not'.
- It is not an ideal hotel - To nie jest idealny hotel
Note the word ordering here - literally 'It not is an ideal hotel'
When answering questions we do it the same way as we do in English
- Yes, it is an ideal hotel - Tak, to jest idealny hotel
- No, it's not an ideal hotel - Nie, to nie jest idealny hotel

- Yes, it is a legal document
- No, it's not a natural taste
Here are a couple more useful words which are very close to English
- Product - Produkt
- Asystent - Asystent
Try using these in answers. Press the play button to check if you are right.
- Yes, it is a natural product
- No, it's not a virtual assistant
Heads up!
Word ordering is fairly relaxed in Polish so expect to hear both of these:
- Tak, to jest naturalny produkt
- Tak, to jest produkt naturalny
For this course we will stick with English word ordering but as you read and listen more in Polish you'll learn where different word orderings are most commonly used.
