"Jem jabłko i piję herbatę."

Translation: I am eating an apple and drinking tea.

[verticordian]

Is there any reason why 'I eat an apple and I drink tea' isn't accepted?

[schmidzy]

I answered the same thing. Just reported it.

Is there any difference between "herbata" and "herbatę"?

[va-diim]

When tea, herbata is the object of the verb in this case pić "to drink," it takes the accusative case herbatę. When it's the subject of the sentence, it uses the nominative case herbata.

Interesting combination

[va-diim]

Herbata goes with everything, Slavs know this.

Why doesn't piję wodę make the nasal sound like lubię?

[Jellei]

Frankly, neither in "piję" nor in "lubię" the nasal sound shouldn't be too clear, if "ę" is the final sound of a word, it usually is pronounced just like normal "e" or nasalized only slightly.

[diegomrsantos]

Why is it piję and not pije?

[Jellei]

They are two different words (although they are pronounced the same or almost the same).

"piję" means "I [drink/am drinking]", "pije" means "[he/she/it] [drinks/is drinking]".
