Hi 😀 let me show you everything you asked for!

Dni tygodnia po polsku (days of the week in Polish)

Polish	Sound	English
poniedziałek		Monday
wtorek		Tuesday
środa		Wednesday
czwartek		Thursday
piątek		Friday
sobota		Saturday
niedziela		Sunday
poniedziałek, wtorek, środa, czwartek, piątek, sobota, niedziela		Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday

I have also made a short Youtube video presenting days of the week in Polish. If you prefer video format, please have a look:

In the second table, you will find information on how to say in Polish that something happens on a particular day of the week. This will be helpful if you want to say that some kind of activity happens on Monday, on Friday or any other day. As you will notice, in Polish it is a bit more complicated than in English when we just add "on" to the basic name of the day.

Usually you need to put w but in the case of Tuesday, you need to add we instead.

In some cases the ending of the day name will also change: niedziela Sunday but w niedzielę on Sunday. I agree it is slightly compliated but I think the way to master it is to repeat is many times until using the correct forms becomes automatic. OK, let's have a look.

Który dzień tygodnia? (Which day of the week?)

Polish	Sound	English
w poniedziałek		on Monday
we wtorek		on Tuesday
w środę		on Wednesday
w czwartek		on Thursday
w piątek		on Friday
w sobotę		on Saturday
w niedzielę		on Sunday
w poniedzialek, we wtorek, w środę, w czwartek, w piątek, w sobotę, w niedzielę		on Monday, on Tuesday, on Wednesday, on Thursday, on Friday, on Saturday, on Sunday

There are also slight differences when we use plurals forms for days of the week (like in sentence On Mondays I go to the swimming pool W poniedziałki chodzę na basen), but I think that such sentences are not frequent so I have decided not to include them. However, if you would like to know these forms or have any other questions, please feel free to contact me.

Fantastic, thanks a lot!

Great resource for learning Polish days of the week.

btw, there is a nice Polish song Niedziela będzie dla nas where the lyrics contain all the days of the week.

Please have a look (lyrics with Polish days of the week below the video)

W poniedziałek w poniedziałek ja nie mogę

Bo pomagam mamie

A we wtorek a we wtorek i w środę

Ty masz w domu pranie

No a w czwartek no a w czwartek ja mam dyżur

W piątek w piątek dwa zebrania

Ty w sobotę ty w sobotę też nie możesz

Bo na lekcje ganiasz

Ale za to niedziela

Ale za to niedziela

Niedziela będzie dla nas

A za tydzień

W poniedziałek ty nie możesz

Bo pomagasz mamie

A we wtorek a we wtorek i w środę

Ja mam w domu w pranie

No a w czwartek no a w czwartek ty masz dyżur

W piątek w piątek dwa zebrania

Ty w sobotę Ty w sobotę znów nie możesz

Bo na lekcję ganiasz

Ale za to niedziela

Ale za to niedziela

Niedziela będzie dla nas
