Zakupy w supermarkecie
Grocery Shopping
A Saturday grocery run: filling the basket with fruit, vegetables, bread and dairy, picking up a chicken for Sunday dinner, and paying at the checkout.
You will practice: Present-tense verbs of routine (idę, biorę, kupuję), the accusative for direct objects (biorę pomidory, kupuję kurczaka), and po + accusative for going to fetch something (idę po chleb).
