No. 388 in Polish
polskę
The accusative form of "Polska," meaning "Poland" in English.
In a sentence
Kocham Polskę, bo jest piękna.
I love Poland because it is beautiful.
In this sentence, "Polskę" is the direct object of the verb "kocham" (I love) and is in the accusative case due to the nature of the action expressed.
Widziałeś Polskę na mapie?
Have you seen Poland on the map?
Here, "Polskę" again serves as the direct object and is in the accusative case as "widzieć" (to see) is a transitive verb requiring its object in this case.
Gdy przemierzaliśmy Polskę, zauważyliśmy wiele wspaniałych miejsc.
As we traveled across Poland, we noticed many wonderful places.
In this instance, "Polskę" appears in the accusative case yet denotes movement within Poland due to the context provided by the verb "przemierzać" (to traverse).
