Fat Thursday – Tłusty Czwartek
"Tłusty Czwartek" means "Fat Thursday," and in this delicious micro-lesson you'll say it like you're queuing at the best pączek shop in Warsaw with powdered sugar on your chin.
First you hear the phrase at native speed, then slowed down so you can master the tricky "ł" and the flowing "Czwartek." We drop it into three sugar-rush-ready sentences:
– "Kocham pączki!" (I love donuts!) – "Dziś jest Tłusty Czwartek." (Today is Fat Thursday.) – "Zjem dziesięć pączków" (I'll eat ten donuts)
Repeat-along track included—perfect while you fry, fill, or feast on your favorite pączki.
Challenge: Tell us in the comments how many pączki YOU ate this last Fat Thursday—or just write "Pączki są pyszne" (Donuts are delicious)
