Numbers in Polish
These are the 25 words for numbers that the Jasny Polski course teaches first — the ones that turn up in your first real conversations. Each comes with a sentence, so you can see how the word behaves rather than only what it means.
How to use these words
One and two follow the gender of the noun. One is jeden bilet, jedna kawa, jedno jajko; two is dwa with masculine and neuter words (dwa bilety, dwa jajka) and dwie with feminine ones (dwie kawy). With things, the numbers from three up have a single form.
Age is something you have, not something you are: Ile masz lat? — Mam dwadzieścia lat. After 2, 3 and 4 (and 22, 23, 24…) the word is lata: Mam dwadzieścia dwa lata.
