I'm Polish. The verb "mówić" can be translated as both "to speak" and "to say".
But there are also two additional verbs used. -just to widen the vocabulary.
Rozmawiać- to speak Powiedzieć- to talk/ say
For example
My rozmawiamy- we speak
Ja mówie- I say
Powiedz mi- tell me
Often you can use different Polish verbs for "saying"... and there's quite many ways to say in this language.
I recommend learning phrases on the flashcards by the way.
it is a very specific construction, that basically means "the way they do in ....".
The most common uses of this construction are with languages, and food.
In most cases adjectives work differently. you put adjective before a noun and case, number and gender of adjective has to match that of a noun.

It's not confusing. In Romanian I can also say: Vorbesc în engleză, which means I speak in English. At least for me it makes sense :)
