              I really wish this Polish course was a little more tolerant of minor typos, especially considering that Polish orthography is a bit of a new thing for most people starting out in the language.

                        Well, not really, it's not an apology for eating an apple (Przepraszam, że jem jabłko), it's rather more in the direction of "Sorry, can't ralk right now, I have my mouth full because I'm eating an apple".

                          "Je" is "he, she is eating" "Jem" is "I am eating"

                            If I understood correctly, the first letters are not silent. you have P + "RZ" and according to the prononciation table "RZ" = more or "s" in treasure. hope this is clear --"

                              It's pronounced 'Pshehprasham' from a native English speaker's point of view. So the 'r' is silent, not the 'p' :-)
