What is your morning like…? Posted by on Nov 8, 2011 in Culture, Phrases, Vocabulary

We all like to do different things in the morning, get up at different hours. Today I wanted to share with you how to describe your morning routine…and the days that are not really like your routine.

Some of us are “early birds” which in Polish we describe as “ranne ptaszki” (singular: ranny ptaszek). Others like to sleep longer…I’m definitely in the second group.

to sleep longer – spać dłużej

person who likes to sleep a lot – śpioch (diminutive –  śpioszek)

Some of us use alarm clock (budzik) to wake up (obudzić się) in the morning. I always wake up without it…

Some of us like to lay in bed (leżeć w łóżku) and watch TV (oglądać telewizję) or read a book (czytać książkę) before getting up.

A lot of people like to get up early and work out (uprawiać sport), either at the gym (na siłowni) or outdoors (na świeżym powietrzu). Then they take a shower (brać prysznic), eat breakfast (jeść śniadanie), or not…and head to school (iść do szkoły) or work (iść do pracy)….or spend a day off the way they like.

Well, I definitely like to sleep longer and working from home definitely helps! I like to have my coffee (napić się kawy) and catch up on the news (nadrobić zaległości w wiadomościach), either on tv or in newspaper. (oglądać telewizję lub czytać gazety).

And how is your morning like? Try to describe it in Polish:)

Do następnego razu… (Till next time…)

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.
