What are most common Polish words? Posted by on Oct 23, 2013 in Grammar, Vocabulary

It is really hard to be sure what words are most common in specific language. I did quite a lot of research and based on different articles/books/websites I put together a list of 100 most common Polish words!

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.
