"Miałam dużo chleba."

Translation: I had a lot of bread.

[Ten_Pies_I_Brew]

Can "miałam" mean "I ate" (like "I had" can), or is this only "I had a lot of bread in my possession"?

[dmysze]

i'm wondering, how would it be written in order to say "i had a large bread" ?

[nicole.bur1]

"Miałem duży chleb". If I'm not mistaken.

[Ten_Pies_I_Brew]

"A large bread" sounds weird in English; does "duży chleb" also sound weird in Polish or is it a perfectly normal way to say "a large piece of bread"?

[Jellei]

Well, a large loaf of bread, rather. In theory chleb is uncountable and you can only count "bochenki" (loaves), but in everyday language, "duży chleb" sounds perfectly fine to me.

I can hear the m on mialam on speed, when I checked on turtle, I defy you to hear anything but maila.

[Jellei]

Well, it's there. It's getting quieter though.

I first translated "I had a big bread" and it was wrong. Now I read the coments, can you explain if there is any logic why "dużo chleba" is a lot of bread and "duzy chleb" a big bread (even if it's not usual to say it)?

[alik1989]

Big is an adjective, and Polish adjectives never end in -o and always inflect for case, number and gender (at least in this course).

Dużo is an adverb (quantifier) that means many, much, a lot.

Dziękuję bardzo! Teraz razumię! I was not aware of that, I thought dużo was a declination... Difficult language!
