See you in class! 🎉 Today, we’re going to talk about an interesting and frequently used phrase in the Polish language – "na czuja". If you’re learning Polish and want to sound more natural, this phrase will be very useful for you. What does "na czuja" mean? Simply put, it means doing something intuitively, without a plan, spontaneously. It’s like acting based on a feeling, following your intuition rather than specific rules. Now, let’s move on to some practical examples of how "na czuja" is used in everyday situations! "Where are we?" in PolishImagine you come home after a long day, hungry and excited to see what your partner or friend has prepared for dinner. You ask the usual question: "What’s for dinner?" and the answer is… rice. Just rice. No sauce, no spices—just plain rice. But what makes it even funnier? Your partner isn’t exactly a chef and admits to cooking it "na czuja"—just following their gut feeling. Will it be good? Who knows! Let's see how this short and funny conversation plays out. 👇 Check out the dialogue below! 👇 "What is for dinner?" in PolishParking "Na Czuja" – The Struggle is Real 🚐😅 Imagine you’re in a big city abroad, driving a massive rental van.

Most of the time, it works… well, with a few exceptions. 😬 Now, let’s see how this plays out in a short and simple dialogue! "Where should I park?" in PolishWhy Learn How to Complain in Polish?
