Buildings in my town – Budynki w moim mieście Posted by on Jun 30, 2012 in Grammar, Phrases, Vocabulary

Do you ever wonder how to name different buildings in Polish, for example while asking for directions and looking at the map of the city? Sometimes you may need these words to make a to do list, answer a question, ask a question or explain something to a stranger.

Here is a little list for you:

Railway station – stacja kolejowa

Museum – muzeum

Police station – posterunek policji

Fire station – posterunek straży pożarnej

Hospital – szpital

Town hall – ratusz

Restaurant – restauracja

School – szkoła

Shop – sklep

Supermarket – supermarket

Post Office – poczta

Bank – bank

Pharmacy – apteka

Jewelry store – sklep jubilerski

Bookshop – księgarnia

Florist’s – kwiaciarnia

Grocery  store– sklep spożywczy

Butcher’s – sklep mięsny

Bakery – piekarnia

Office buildings – biurowce

Library – biblioteka

I probably missed some words, but I tried to include as many the most common names of the buildings as possible.

About the Author: Kasia

My name is Kasia Scontsas. I grew near Lublin, Poland and moved to Warsaw to study International Business. I have passion for languages: any languages! Currently I live in New Hampshire. I enjoy skiing, kayaking, biking and paddle boarding. My husband speaks a little Polish, but our daughters are fluent in it! I wanted to make sure that they can communicate with their Polish relatives in our native language. Teaching them Polish since they were born was the best thing I could have given them! I have been writing about learning Polish language and culture for Transparent Language’s Polish Blog since 2010.
