"Nie jestem mądra."

Translation: I am not clever.

[Paragonium]

Ah, that reminds me of a word I learned a while back - "Mądrala" (smartarse)

[LydiaKelle1]

I entered clever instead of smart. Does madra not mean clever too?

[Jellei]

I think it's an even better translation. Added, of course.

[AJasko]

I would say smart is more sprytna

[NicoleTurn8]

Clever means more sprytny then mądry

[OpalFeciat]

You okay duolingo?

[JerryMcCarthy99]

British English uses "smart" to mean "well-dressed". I'm guessing that you wouldn't use "mądry" to compliment someone on their nice new suit!

[OmegaPiSquared]

smart means clever too

[NicoleTurn8]

Nope

[TwinTip]

When would I use "mądrą"?

[Jellei]

If you added some noun, thus creating a noun phrase ("smart woman", for example), then it would go into Instrumental and be "Nie jestem mądrą kobietą".

[michmo]

Do you know a woman who says it?

[Mrs.Mop]

Don't know what nicole means by Nope. Eg. He is top of his class. Yes he's very smart. Meaning clever.

[Jellei]

Yeah, but that was about the 'smart' = 'elegant' meaning. Doesn't work in Polish.

[EdwardKeat3]

It seems funny to me to have Duolingo use the male voice but then the feminine adjective mądra. I would think it would be preferable if they tied their voices' genders to their adjectives. Presumably, a male in Poland would say Nie jestem mądry

[Jellei]

Yes, he would.

I would also prefer having the right voice with the right sentence, but at least for now it is impossible to ensure that.

I do know someone with the name Mądra (pan i pani mądry/a )
When we are at their house en open the door, can my wife use this sentence to tell the person in front of me that "Nie jestem Mądra" (but a guest). Or should she use : "Nie jestem pani Mądra "

[Jellei]

I'd go with "Nie nazywam się Mądra", but I guess "Nie jestem Mądra" works as well, although something sounds colloquial about it, plus of course it has the joking layer of "I am not smart". I think that your other version, which introduces a noun phrase "pani Mądra" should take Instrumental (Nie jestem panią Mądrą). Not that it sounds like a likely thing to say, to my ears...
