¶ Learning the Word Kawałek
Okay, so today I'm gonna teach you new word. Lately I showed you the word kawał. Yeah. Today, the word kawałek. Kawałek. It's basically the soften of the previous word, yeah, which was kawał, as I said. So, we are going to focus on kawałek because basically this word comes from kawał, but has a new different meanings. Okay? So, I'm gonna show you the bad meanings. Czy jesteś gotowy? Jestem. Ok, to zaczynamy. Kawałek. The first meaning, and probably one of the most popular, it's a piece. Yeah?
For example, kawałek ciasta. Kawałek. A piece of cake. Yeah? Or, also, like a slice of. And now I'm gonna show you the real sentences. To ciasto było przepyszne. To ciasto było przepyszne. Tasty, is this? Yes, so delicious. Basically, as you know, Roy, probably you know the word pyszne. Pyszne. Yeah, delicious. Yeah? But when we say przepyszne, it's like delicious plus, you know, it's like... The answer delicious. is it?
Yes, it's like like, it's like wonderful, like so, like, it's great, yes, but in taste. And so, pyszne, przepyszne. So, to ciasto było przetyczne. Czy mogę dostać jeszcze jeden kawałek? Can I get, like, additional one, yes? Niestety, nie, talerz jest pusto. Talerz pusto, yes, like, the plate is empty. Can I, can I, can I get, like, Next one? Yes? Jeszcze jeden? Jeszcze jeden? And when it comes to, for example, pizza, like a slice of, ile chcesz kawałków?
Sometimes when we and my mom, kiedy ja i moja mama zamawiamy pizza, when we ordered pizza, And it's already at home. My mom asks me. Moja mama pyta mnie. Ile chcesz kawałków? Yes? Like, how many slices would you like to? Yeah? And I say, for example, poproszę dwa. Or just dwa, trzy. Zazwyczaj, jeżeli jem dwa albo trzy, zależy jak bardzo głodna jestem. It depends on how hungry am I, yeah? I też jaki was my... The size of pizza, bożbyś mały, albo bardzo dużo. O, my tylko zamawiamy dużo.
My tylko zamawiamy dużą pizzę, yes? Pizze następny dzień nie jest dobrze. Śmijć chipop i śpiesze fresh, tak? Prawda, prawda. i think i think roy that if you live in poland you've heard this context many times yeah kawałek ciasta kawałek pizza yeah even sometimes in poland you can you can find the places where you can like buy pizza like on the own like like sites of fact but yeah so for example pizza it is called pizza na kawałki, yes?
There are the places where you directly buy, for example, one slice, yeah? Jeden kawałek, dwa kawałki, yeah, etc. Basically, it's cheaper, because usually when you go out, yes, for example, to just eat pizza, then you need some group of friends, but just alone. And you just, for example, mix the tastes, yeah? Możesz mieszać smaki. Okay. Kawałek, song. Also, yeah, it is, basically, dictionaries say that it is short song. But I have to disagree. Many times we just use it just for songs, yeah?
