"A director works in the office" - why not? (reported)

    Well, in English, boss and director are definitely not the same thing

      Sometimes cases are so weird, how comes "biuro" transforms to "biurze" or "okno" to "okien"... Is there some logic behind this?

        Well, it's a very broad question, but I'd advise to:

        look for posts about cases here: https://www.duolingo.com/comment/16296174

        or this website: http://mowicpopolsku.com/polish-grammar/cases/ (note that it's not completely devoid of mistakes, but still it's one of the best that you can find)

        "The chief is working in an office." should be correct, too!?
