This is the 15th most frequent Polish word.


ma

"Ma" means "has" in English.


In this sentence, 'ma' is the third-person singular verb form of 'mieć' (to have), referring to possession.

Ona ma nowy samochód.

She has a new car.


Here, 'ma' again serves as the third-person singular form of 'mieć,' describing ownership or characteristic of the subject.

Pokój ma ładny widok.

The room has a nice view.


In this example, 'ma' is used in an interrogative sentence to inquire about possession, maintaining its verb form for 'mieć' in the third-person singular form.
