"I would not talk about it if I were you."

Translation: Nie mówiłabym o tym na twoim miejscu.

[Shuuichi73]

Why aren't translations like "Na twoim miejscu nie mówiłbym o tym." accepted? I'm Polish (doing this course just for fun) and I would say it like I wrote above.

[Inquiss]

Same here, this translation seems even more natural for me (though both are correct).

[martiankoolaid]

This was such an awkward sentence.

[Mudkip20]

"Nie mówiłbym o tym gdybym był ty", tak czy nie możliwe?

[alik1989]

gdybym był *tobą

[frustr4t]

Does this excercise accept both genders for this sentence?

[Aran.Nelske]

It should. Just like the exercises for "ty" and "wy"

[jumbo420]

"O tym nie mówiłabym na twoim miejscu"?

[Jellei]

Starting with "O tym"... hmm, sounds probable enough. I'd recommend "O tym by nie mówiła" in such a case, though. But ok, added.

Why "mówiłbym" and not "powiedziałbym"? I would think the point isn't just not talking, it's not talking about it, or telling it, to someone else .

[Jellei]

Well, then the English sentence should rather be "I wouldn't say it"/"I wouldn't tell it", I think.

Also I believe that "Nie powiedziałbym" sounds to me like it's kinda too late - you already did say it, so I'm saying that I think it was a mistake.

[gkouye]

Oh, I just remembered that powiedzieć is perfective and mówić is imperfective, and when you say not to do something, you normally use imperfective.

[alik1989]

That's true for imperatives, but powiedziałbym/mówiłbym are in the conditional mood.

I also think that with powiedzieć the English translation would need the past tense (e.g. 'I wouldn't have said it').
