55 Common (High-Frequency) Polish Verbs found on the Swadesh List

Embedded below you will find a game to learn 55 of the most commonly-used Polish verbs from the Polish Swadesh List.

This was taken from a Quizlet set I just made to help me learn these common verbs and test my brewing theory of action-oriented language learning. I like using Quizlet because it is free, quick, currently has non-intrusive ads and, perhaps most importantly, allows me to share with anyone else work that I do to create language-learning materials.

As I will be heading to Poland within a week or two, I have kicked into high gear to learn as much as possible before getting there. It is a challenge to test out my own ideas on picking up languages quickly for practical use, ideas developed over a period of years while learning the four languages I speak with relative fluency and bits and pieces of others I am not yet terribly proficient in.

At any rate, included with the Polish are International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) transcriptions of the words being learned for quick pronunciation reference. There are other ways to learn and practice at Quizlet if you visit a Quizlet setthis set's page. If you are into learning lots of languages, I recommend learning the IPA.

Quizlet HSK Test Vocabulary Preparation

Wow! While researching Quizlet on Free Language, I found an amazing stack of vocabulary cards specifically for preparing for the HSK examination. Currently there are four stacks with a collective total of over 8,700 terms with definition, characters and pinyin!

Chinese HSK A
Chinese HSK B
Chinese HSK C
Chinese HSK D

If you want to be an accredited Chinese user, you can work at it and take the test.

The Hànyǔ Shuǐpíng Kǎoshì (simplified Chinese: 汉语水平考试; traditional Chinese: 漢語水平考試), abbreviated as HSK, is the People's Republic of China's only standardized test of Standard Mandarin Chinese proficiency for non-native speakers, namely foreign students, overseas Chinese, and members of ethnic minority groups in China. It is also known as the "Chinese Proficiency Test" and the "Chinese TOEFL."
