"Dziękuję, pa!"

Translation: Thank you, bye!

[alex_tv80]

I thought it means "Thank you, dad!" )))

[vytah]

"dad" is "tata" (although in this sentence you'd want vocative "tato")

[MuratNasyrov]

I translated it as well!

[Cdmcbride01]

Same

[PartyPoison707]

[Ben517719]

I've noticed this when I have low quality connection

[WraythRose]

same :(

[The_dubliner]

It wouldn't on mine but then it was really loud

Isn't 'dz' pronounced like 'ds' in "gods", instead of like 'j' in "jam"?

At least it says that among the tips, written to this lesson.

[Jellei]

Yes. "DZ" is from "gods", or "woods", DŻ is from "jam" or "jungle".

However, this is the third one from the family. When you have DZI, that equals DŹ (it's not that visible in Duolingo font, but that's what people usually call 'accent', and not a dot like in DŻ). And DŹ = DZI is palatalized DZ. Palatalized sounds are difficult for most of foreign learners. It could help to listen to the comparison in section two of this website.

Other pairs of palatalized sounds are Ń = NI, Ć = CI, Ś = SI, Ź = ZI. It's a matter of orthography mostly, although sometimes there will be a hearable difference between just having "ń" and having "ni" which will make a separate "i" sound after the palatalized "n".

What's the difference between dziękuje and dziękuję?

[Yola448704]

I thank - dziękuję
you thank - dziękujesz
he/she thanks - dziękuje

we thank - dziękujemy
you thank - dziękujecie
they thank - dziękują

Dziękuję, pa, pa! - Thank you, bye, bye!

Why it can not be "Thanks, goodbye"?

[jmargarit]

'Goodbye' would be 'do widzenia' in Polish.

[Aldrost]

Am I the only one hearing a "n" sound right before the "k"? Like "Dzienkuje"?

[Inge452707]

the "e" with accent is spoken as a nasal. That's why it sounds a little like a "n"
