A few questions

Hello, I have a few questions about Polish:

1)In "Dzień dobry", how do you pronounce the "ń" ?

2)Are these phrases correct? :

"Jesteśmy zadowolonami"
"Jesteście zachwyconami"
"Są zmęczonami"

3)For the past, for the verb "czekać", there is written
"czekałem/łam"
"czekałes/łas"
"czekał/ła"

I don't understand what the difference is, how to use this.

Thanks if you answer =)

    1) "ń" should be pronounced like very schort "ni"

    2)
    "Jesteśmy zadowolonami" - We are glad/pleased - correct is: "Jesteśmy zadowoleni"
    "Jesteście zachwyconami" - You are delighted/fascinated - correct is: "Jesteście zachwyceni"
    "Są zmęczonami" - They are tired - correct is: "Są zmęczeni"

    3) The difference is:

    "czekałem/łam" I was waiting "~ łem" (used by boy) "~ łam" (used by girl)
    "czekałes/łas" You were waiting "~ łeś" (the person you are talking to is a boy) "~ łaś" (the person you are talking to is a girl)
    "czekał/ła" "~ ł" (He) "~ ła" (She) was waiting

    I hope I could help a bit and that I didn't make it more complicated XD
