0:00 Hi, welcome to episode number nine of Learn Polish Podcast. I'm your host, Roy Calden, and I'm here with the teacher, Kamila. Cześć, Kamila. Cześć, Roy. Jak się masz? Dobrze, dziękuję. A u Ciebie? Wszystko świetnie. Wszystko w porządku. So let's start in lesson. Today we will talk about ordering drinks in restaurant. It's a very useful topic. Yes. Do you go to restaurant? Yeah. Yeah, so let's start. When you want to order coffee, in Polish you can say, Proszę kawę z mlekiem. It means, coffee with milk, please. Proszę kawę z mlekiem. Proszę kawę z mlekiem. Okay, super.

0:43 Proszę kawę bez mleka. It means, coffee without milk, please. Proszę kawę bez mleka. Proszę kawę bez mleka. And could you not say, like normal, just a black tea? Black tea? Or black coffee, sorry. Black coffee? So you can say like that. Proszę czarną kawę. Proszę czarną kawę. Yeah. So you prefer black coffee. Yes. Instead of white. How do I say I prefer in Polish? Wole. Wole. Wole. Wole czarną kawę. Wole czarną kawę. A ja wolę kawę z mlekiem. I prefer coffee with me. Yeah.

1:25 Super. So, next drink. Proszę herbatę z cytryną. It means tea with lemon, please. Proszę herbatę z cytryną. Proszę herbatę z cytryną. Super. Proszę wodę mineralną niegazowaną. Mineral water, please. Proszę wodę mineralną niegazowaną. Proszę wodę mineralną niegazowaną. One more time. Proszę wodę mineralną niegazowaną. I know it's very good grammar, very good pronunciation. Okay, so let's order juice. Sok pomarańczowy means orange juice. Sok pomarańczowy.

2:12 Sok pomarańczowy. Super, very good. So let's make dialogue. You are in a restaurant. The waiters will ask you. Co dla pana? It means what for you. Co dla pana? Dla mnie czarna kawa. Different construction. We didn't start. You said dla mnie. Dla mnie it means for me. You said dla mnie czarna kawa. For me black coffee. Okay, but let's practice another construction. Proszę czarną kawę. Proszę czarną kawa. Super. Anything else means coś jeszcze? Coś jeszcze?

2:58 Very good memory, very good grammar, Roy. I see that you have time for Polish. So, if you were a lady, the waitress will ask you, You can practice with me, yeah? Should I put on a lady's accent? No, like you normally speak. Dla mnie. Nie, co dla pani, should ask me. Oh, sorry. Co dla plana, the pani. Co dla pani, ja. Proszę sok pomarańczowy. Can you remember what does it mean? Orange juice. Super. So we have a lot of new vocabulary, so you can practice it then go to restaurant.

3:45 And when you're looking for the bill, what would you say? The bill from the waitress? Ah, so we can say, proszę rachunek. Proszę rachunek. Proszę. And then, because sometimes the last you want to pay by cash or credit card? Yeah, so then you ask, czy mogę płacić kartą? Can I pay? Czy mogę płacić kartą? Ja, super. Tak! Ok, co, dobrze. Dziękuję bardzo. Dziękuję bardzo. Do widzenia. Do usłyszenia!
