Your say - Weird words 2p2i2g

Cuddly as a cushion c4b

I've been learning Polish for three weeks. Sometimes it's kind of boring, because at present I'm mostly learning basic words. It tests my patience but it's rewarding. My favourite Polish word so far is łóżko, bed, which is pronounced 'wooshko'. I find it sounds exactly like cushions, soft sheets and coffee in bed on a sleepy Sunday morning!

My office mate's favourite word is "niegrzeczny" (naughty) which is very often used to describe me :)

I agree, łóżko sounds really nice. Have you tried dogadamy się, meaning 'we come to an agreement'.
