Dating Apps

1. Zobaczyłem/Zobaczyłam twój profil na aplikacji randkowej

   zoh-bah-CHIH-wem/zoh-bah-CHIH-wahm tvoy PROH-feel nah ah-plee-KAH-tsyee ran-KOH-vey

   I saw your profile on a dating app

   Usage

   Telling someone you saw their dating app profile

   Grammar Note

   "Zobaczyłem" (male speaker) / "Zobaczyłam" (female speaker). Past tense in Polish agrees with the speaker's gender

2. Czy chciałbyś/chciałabyś dopasować się na Tinderze?

   chih HCHAW-bish/hchah-WAH-bish doh-pah-SOH-vach sheh nah teen-DEH-zhe

   Would you like to match on Tinder?

   Usage

   Suggesting to match on a dating app like Tinder

   Grammar Note

   "Chciałbyś" (male) / "chciałabyś" (female) are conditional forms. "Tinder" takes the locative case: "na Tinderze"

3. Czego szukasz na tej aplikacji?

   CHEH-goh SHOO-kahsh nah tey ah-plee-KAH-tsyee

   What are you looking for on this app?

   Usage

   Asking what someone is looking for on the app

   Grammar Note

   "Czego" is the genitive form of "co" (what), required by "szukać" (to look for), which governs the genitive case

4. Jestem nowy/nowa na tej aplikacji — jak to działa?

   YES-tem NOH-vih/NOH-vah nah tey ah-plee-KAH-tsyee — yahk toh DJAW-wah

   I'm new to this app — how does it work?

   Usage

   Asking how the app works as a new user

   Grammar Note

   "Nowy" (masculine) / "nowa" (feminine) agree with the speaker's gender. "Działa" is third-person singular present

5. Czy możemy porozmawiać na wideo przed spotkaniem?

   chih moh-ZHEH-mih poh-roz-MAH-vyach nah vee-DEH-oh pshed spot-KAH-nyem

   Can we video chat before meeting in person?

   Usage

   Suggesting a video call before an in-person meeting

   Grammar Note

   "Przed" (before) requires the instrumental case: "spotkanie" (meeting) → "spotkaniem"

6. Gdzie chciałbyś/chciałabyś się spotkać na pierwszą randkę?

   gdjeh HCHAW-bish/hchah-WAH-bish sheh SPOT-kach nah PYERV-shom RAN-keh

   SHVYET-nyeh sheh roz-mah-VYAH-woh — HCHAW-bish/hchah-WAH-bish sheh SPOT-kach

   I enjoyed chatting with you — want to meet up?

   Usage

   Suggesting to meet up after enjoying a chat

   Grammar Note

   "Świetnie się rozmawiało" is an impersonal construction meaning "it was great chatting". No explicit subject

   mahsh SHVYET-nih PROH-feel / WAD-neh ZDYEN-chah

   You have a great profile / nice photos!
