Sentence Discussions Polish
#1

English Translation

I miss him a lot.

Wouldn’t “tęsknić” be the better verb to use here? Like, “Bardzo mi go tęskni”? I feel like brakować doesn’t fit the meaning of missing a person, which implies longing for them in English.

#3

it’s incorrect. You wanted to say Bardzo za nim tęsknię. It would be fine as well.

it’s the best translation and fits perfectly.
