Questions & Answers about Jesteśmy blisko.

Do I need to include the pronoun my (we), or is Jesteśmy blisko enough?

You can (and usually should) omit the subject pronoun. Jesteśmy blisko is the natural, neutral way to say it. Use My jesteśmy blisko only for emphasis or contrast, e.g., “We are close (not them).”

What exactly is blisko here—an adjective or an adverb? Why not bliscy?

In Jesteśmy blisko, blisko is an adverb meaning “near/nearby.” It does not agree with the subject in gender or number.
Bliscy/bliski/bliska/bliskie are adjective forms meaning “close (emotionally or relationally).” For emotional closeness you’d say:

• Mixed group or men: Jesteśmy sobie bliscy.
• Group of women: Jesteśmy sobie bliskie.

How do I say “We are close to each other,” physically vs. emotionally?

• Physically: Jesteśmy blisko siebie or Stoimy blisko siebie (“We’re standing close to each other”).
• Emotionally: Jesteśmy sobie bliscy/bliskie (use the form that matches who “we” are).

How do I say “We are close to [place/thing]”?
