What I Did as a Child – Co robiłem jako dziecko
"Co robiłem jako dziecko" means "what I did as a child," and in this nostalgic micro-lesson you'll say it like you're flipping through old photo albums with your Polish grandmother.
First you hear the phrase at native speed, then slowed down so you can master the rolling "r" and the soft "dziecko." We drop it into three memory-lane-ready sentences:
– "Kiedy byłem mały…" (When I was little…) – "Lubiłem się bawić." (I liked to play.) – "To było dawno temu." (That was a long time ago.)
Repeat-along track included—perfect while you reminisce or share your own childhood stories.
Challenge: Tell us in the comments what YOU did as a child—reply in Polish and Ania might sing your answer in the next episode
