Can someone help me write something in polish?

I can speak very well but i can't write that good. I want to say: Hello Grandma how are you I miss you and I hope you are doing well. I think about you everyday and I want to tell you that I love you and I miss you. I got you a mother's day card because you took care of me like I was your daughter and I want to thank you for that. I wish I can go see you in poland. It has been a long time since we seen each other and we used to see each other every year. I think of you daily and I want to let you know i'm doing great. My son will be 4 on May. 22 Me and his father are doing very well we love each other very much and help each other and we are strong together. I want to start school soon when alex goes to preschool in September. Either for the police department or in nursing. i don't know yet it's hard to decide because i don't want to regret what I choose to study. Stephanie is doing good. She is doing very well in school and she misses you too. I will talk to you soon. Love you very much and take care!

I speak Polish and English fluently, Polish is my native.

Do you speak Polish/Mówisz po Polsku?

If you don't, start learning now; it will be the world's future official language. If you do, say something in Polish :)

How do you write "Daddy" in Polish?

I get a few answers from the online translations, but I'm looking for the most common version of how you would say/write "Daddy" in Polish. Here are the translations that I get online:

ojciec
tata
tatuś
ojczulek
papa
papcio

I am getting a tattoo to represent my Polish dad! Thanks! :)
UPDATE - Thank you for the answers so far! And I'm not looking for a lecture about tattoos, so please don't waste your breath on that. I love all of my tattoos, and no comment you make here is going to change that, so please don't bother. Thank you!

tattoo in polish language?

I don't think I wrote my question right earlier but mabye it makes no difference.
I am wanting to get my maiden name tattooed on me but I just thought it strange that "Rojewski" is written the exact same way as the english language. Please pardon my ignorance if it is the same way. I also wanted to get "Severi" written in Polish as well.
Thankyou again to the lovely person that replied to me earlier

Okay well i'm 15 and I really like the way that polish sounds. Well my step-dad is polish and speaks it fluently... So for me to learn polish should I just get like a learning program or just have myself immersed in it by him speaking it to me all the time? I really do want to learn it

As far as I understood (and, correct me if I'm wrong), abortion is illegal in Poland although it is performed somewhat discreetly so I guess it's not too uncommon to have a high rate of illegitimate births.

However, I'm talking from a social point of view. Is it socially acceptable to have illegitimate births within your average-Joe Polish families?

Are there any benefits to Polish products?

I work next door to a polish deli/grocery store. They sell all types of deli products, plus shampoos, facial cleansers, and also cooking ingredients such as oils, spices, etc. However, everything on the bottles are written in Polish. Are there benefits to these products over standard american products?

I am volunteering for a political campaign. I have to phone a lot of voters and go door to door encouraging people to vote for our candidate and leaving pamphlets. I already speak some spanish but no polish. I need to know how to say "I am sorry, I do not speak polish" and "I am from john doe's campaign for state senate" and "thank you." I tried to look it up on the internet but I could not figure out how to pronounce it so if you could write it down in a way that explains how to pronounce it I would be delighted.

Thank you for your help.

I'm about to write to a Polish friend (in English) but wanted to close my email with a nice touch of Polish language :-)

Hello, I'm currently trying to apply for polish citizenship, but I'm having a hard time trying to understand some of the documents that are required. (2)

Wyciąg z Księgi Ludności
Poświadczenie Obywatelstwa Polskiego

If you speak Polish, can you help?! Are those documents, or just data? Thank you.

I didn't learn anything at my polish school. My mom spend 0 on that school, and it was a big waste, but hey... it was fun. I learn a lot in my normal school but not my other school. Why?

How to write an address in Polish?

My Polish girlfriend gave me this address: 05-090 Raszyn 17 Wodna street Poland. How do I write that on an envelope? I am used to the american style.

Hi, whats the polish name of saying female name Johanna, Joanna?

Is there a translation?

I knew a girl who's name was Joanna and in Poland they say it someway else

Thanks!
Thankyou for the responses so far,

However I think the name that I'm thinking of starts with an 'S', any ideas??

Thankyou

British workers have been turned away from jobs in a local factory – for not speaking Polish.
Cooked meat manufacturer Forza AW effectively barred anyone but Poles for applying for jobs on its production line in East Anglia by insisting all staff speak the language fluently.

The company claimed it was necessary as all health and safety training was conducted in Polish.
But Forza – a major supplier of Asda supermarkets – was last night accused of anti-British discrimination because of the adverts, which came after an official report detailed how unscrupulous employers prefer to hire migrants because they are cheap and less inclined to answer back.
Forza’s insistence on Polish speakers may be illegal, as a spokesman for the Government Equalities Office said last night: ‘Under the 1976 Race Relations Act, unless there is a genuine need for a worker to speak a particular language it is against the law to require that they should do so as a condition of employing them.’
'I couldn't believe it - are we in England or in Poland?' How soon will it be here I cannot believe it - are we in America or in Mexico ?

My dad is from Poland and I want to learn a language that would help me in learning Polish from him.
Would Russian be helpful because they are both Slavic languages?

Learning the Polish Language?

I have my parents to help me learn, thats fine in terms of practice, but are there any decent books aimed at young people or children?

also, any gcse polish textbooks out there? I was thinking that might be a good basis, and would be aimed at young people.

any further information is appreciated

how to write thank you card in polish?

I recently had a baby shower and would like to send a Thank You card from my baby for few of my Polish friends. Please help!

He's old and had half of his leg amputated so can't really exercise too much. He still will walk a couple of blocks but i wouldn't recommend more than that. He only speaks Polish. He's going to be staying for the next 6 weeks
Everyone in my family is busy most of the time, either working or running around doing things. And I feel bad that he's alone alot of the time.
So what can we get him or do to entertain him when he's alone or bored?

How to learn Polish online for free?

is there a way to learn Polish, or at least MOST of the basics, online for free, with no downloads preferably? thanks!

It's the same letters except there's little marks on them. But no other "letters". I don't wanna have everything in Polish, but I wanna type certain words or phrases in Polish using their alphabet, or should I just use the English alphabet, it won't always come out right, though.
