  • #570 Dzień Kobiet – Women's Day
    Mar 8 2026

    Hosts Ania and Roy talk about International Womens Day (March 8), comparing Polish and Irish traditions, gift ideas like flowers and jewelry, and what the day means in modern life.

    Hear personal stories, thoughts on gender roles and equality, and warm wishes for women learning Polish. Find episodes and show notes at learnpolishpodcast.com.

    "Dzień Kobiet" means "Women's Day," and in this micro-lesson you'll say it like you're handing flowers to every woman you know. First you hear the phrase at native speed, then slowed down so you can master the soft "Dzień" and the flowing "Kobiet." We drop it into three celebration-ready sentences: – "Wszystkiego najlepszego w Dzień Kobiet!" (All the best on Women's Day!) – "Kupiłem kwiaty na Dzień Kobiet." (I bought flowers for Women's Day.) – "To ważne święto w Polsce." (It's an important holiday in Poland.) Repeat-along track included—perfect while you pick tulips or write a card. Challenge: record yourself saying "Dzień Kobiet" and tag us @learnpolishpodcast—we'll repost the sweetest ones! Key Words: English → Polish Table Copy English Polish Women's Day Dzień Kobiet flowers kwiaty tulips tulipany best wishes wszystkiego najlepszego March 8th ósmy marca gift prezent chocolate czekolada celebrate świętować important ważny / ważna holiday święto mother matka wife żona girlfriend dziewczyna colleague koleżanka respect szacunek love miłość
