Questions & Answers about Mówisz bardzo szybko.
Why does the verb mówić change to mówisz here?
Mówisz means "you speak". It comes from the verb mówić (to speak), which belongs to a conjugation group where the "you" (singular) form ends in -isz. The dictionary form loses its -ić ending, and -isz is added to match the subject.
Where is the word for "you" in this sentence?
In Polish, you usually drop the subject pronoun (like ty for "you") because the verb ending already tells us who is doing the action. The -isz ending in mówisz makes it completely clear that "you" are the one speaking. Adding ty to the start of this sentence would sound unnaturally forceful.
Why does szybko end in an -o?
How do I pronounce the ó in mówisz?
The letter ó (o with an acute accent) is pronounced exactly like the Polish letter u. It sounds just like the "oo" in the English word "boot".
