Questions & Answers about Moja partnerka pracuje w biurze, a wieczorem lubi odpoczywać na balkonie.
Why is it moja partnerka, not mój partnerka?
Because moja has to agree with partnerka in gender, number, and case.
- partnerka is feminine singular
- so the possessive adjective must also be feminine singular: moja
- compare:
- mój partner = my male partner
- moja partnerka = my female partner
Here, partnerka is the subject, so it is in the nominative case.
What exactly does partnerka mean?
Partnerka is the feminine form of partner.
In everyday modern Polish, partnerka often means:
- female partner
- girlfriend
- female romantic partner
Depending on context, it can also mean a female partner in other senses, such as in dancing or business, but in a sentence like this, most people would understand it as a romantic partner.
Why is there no word for she in the sentence?
