The phrases posted by Jasiu/Kama and Aurika have been very helpful. I especially like the English phonetic spelling on the compiled list by Kama
If anyone who speaks Polish could help me with translating the following, I'd greatly appreciate it:
1) doll
LALKA "
LULL-KAH"
2) more (as in "more, please")
WIECEJ "
VEE-ANN-TSEY" but also commonly used is "
YESH-CHEH"
2) all done
We usually use KONIEC "
KOH-KNEE-YETS" meaning "the end", but you could also use JUZ NIE MA or NIE MA "YOOSH-
KNEE-YEAH-MAH" or "[b]KNEE-YEAH/B]-MAH" meaning "there isn't any anymore"
3) walk (as in "walk, please" if a child were running)
I would use "don't run" NIE BIEGAJ "
KNEE-YEAH BEE-EGG-GUY"
4) run and no running (both the command to run and the negative)
BIEGNIJ "
BEE-EGG-KNEEY" and "no running" as above no. 3
5) jump and no jumping
SKACZ "SCOTCH"
vs. "
KNEEY SCOTCH"
6) princess (as in "you look like a princess")
OK, this is a tough one, princess in Polish is KSIEZNICZKA "KSHE-
YEAH-ZHNICHKA" (something like that!), but I would use another word for princess something like KROLEWNA "CRUE
L-EV-NAH" or the word for doll "LULL-KAH".
Since our girls are still young, I was trying to make a list of the most common toys and phrases I might use in the most simplest form. I have a larger list, but these are one's I'm not sure about.
Thanks a million!
