Hello Steemians!
Let's start our POLISH-CRASH-COURSE. Only the most necessary words and sentences. You can read or print. Maked up especially for Steemians.
Sometimes you will need a vowel ɛ – it sounds like „e” in „bed”. Remember that in Polish „r” is pronounced like in Spanish - very clearly and vividly.
And remember – Polish is quite easy. Just try!
In Kraków
Steemfest will take over Kraków (try to spell it like Crackooff)- one of the most beautiful cities in Poland, full of monuments, romantic places, museums and restaurants with specialties of local cuisine. So you have to see the most interesting places in Kraków, try a few things to eat and drink, maybe buy something as a souvenir and do not get lost on the way.
How to get to Main Square (Wawel, Kazimierz)?
Yak doydɛ na Rineck (Vavɛl, Kasimyesh)?
Two tickets please. One ticket please.
Poproshe dva beelɛty. Poproshe beelɛt.
I'd like some Polish dish.

Poproshe pyeroghee (beeghos, s-habo-vy s kapoostom, oghoorkhova, rosoow, joorekh, flakhy).
I'd like some Polish snacks or sweets.

Poproshe voodke (kroopneek, joobroovke, myoot peetny).
Steempolish
Of course, in Polish, we talk about cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology and here many terms are similar because they come from English. But also Polish Steemians have some steem slang.
About Steem:
Naylepsha plat-for-mah crypto!

Hi! Hello! - to somebody from steem.chat/polish
Bonjour! (also in the middle of the night) - it's in French of course. Don't ask why. Just is.

Let's take a picture together! Zdyenche! Zdjenche! Fspoolnah fot-kah!
You'll put it on Steem? Ben-dje toh nah Steemye?
Afterparties
And now a few phrases for use in informal situations. For ease with the division into those associated with positive feelings and those that will be good when you do not want to talk to someone or you're just tired.
Let's have some fun. In this part, I will not translate all phrases (moreover, some are idioms), but they are all perfect for a given situation. ;)
When you're having a great time:
Yest soopɛr!
Alɛ tschad!
Amazing food and drinks:

Fantastic people:

When you've had enough:
Knee mom money.
Doh-bra, vy-star-tschy.
Yush vyen-tzey nye pee-yeah.
When someone bores you:

Poghaday trokhe s in-knee-me vye-lo-ribbah-me.
Tired?
Pah-dam s noogh. Doh you-trah!
Some special frases (You must remember exactly these words) ;)
If you are a woman and need some help with luggage, just say loud: Vee-djau ktosh Yatz-kah?
If you need some magic, shout: Gandalf pomoosh!
If you feel Wise: Khtze gadatsch z Noisym!
If you are a very serious person, then these conversations are not likely to be in your style. Then remember only Me-how-key - these candies are really delicious. :)
Have a fantastic time at Steemfest3 in Kraków!

Special greetings for 
EDIT:
One suggestion from Gandalf (
In southern Poland (where our witness comes from), is often used as a greeting polish equivalent of God bless!, Grüß Gott! (Austria!) which is SZCZĘŚĆ BOŻE!
Yes, I know - there's a lot of typically Polish sounds. Let's do it!
It was simplified pronunciation. ;) If you want to shock Gandalf, you need IPA. 😉
