      Conjugation of verbs.

      mają = they have, ma = he/she/it has.

      Because the form of the verb makes the pronoun usually obvious, we very often omit it.

      Take a look at conjugation of this specific verb here.

      Hi Marek. Your comments are very helpful, so could I suggest that you give full web addresses (that Duo automatically turns into links), as formatted links can't be used from the Android app. :)

        Yes, I was informed about that some time ago and I started giving full web addresses. The aesthetic-loving part of me is in pain, but if it helps more people... ;)

          so are there definite and indefinite articles, or does it not matter? I'm just starting, but it seems random so far.

            There are no articles in Polish. Both definite and indefinite are correct every time... well, unless one is incorrect or at least strange in English on its own.
