siadać/ usiąść / siąść
Hi,
I have a grammar book with states that the perfective aspect of siadać is usiąść ('301 Polish Verbs' by Klara Janecki).
However, I have seen another grammatical table which states that perfective aspect of siadać is siąść here's the link :-

I'd be grateful for comments on this. Is one of the sources incorrect? Or is it possible that they could both be correct? Thanks

O czym jestem odpowiedzialny?
Hello!
Duolingo asked me to translate from English 'For what am I responsible?' to Polish.
I wrote 'O czym jestem odpowiedzialny? ' But Duolingo marked this as incorrect. Duo gave the translation as 'Za co jestem odpowiedzialny?'
Is 'O czym jestem odpowiedzialny?' definitely incorrect??? Or is it correct but sounds a bit strange/unnatural??? :)
Thanks!

Prosić kogoś o rękę
Clozemaster translates this as 'Ask someone's hand'.
Does it mean 'Ask someone for a hand', in other words, to ask someone for their help?
Thanks

Bez powodu, bez powodu
Hi,
I encountered this phrase on Clozemaster :-
'Bez powodu, bez powodu'. Po Angielsku, 'Without reason, without reason'.
Can someone give me an example of a situation, whereby one would use this phrase?
Thank you in advance.

Czemu zawsze ja?
Hi,
I've come across the sentence 'Czemu zawsze ja' on Clozemaster. Regarding the word 'czemu', I understand that this means 'why' and that this is a dative (celownik) word.
Can anyone please explain why in this context 'czemu' is used, rather than the word I already knew for 'why', which is 'dlaczego'.
Would 'Dlaczego zawsze ja' be grammatically incorrect? Or would it just convey a different meaning, or emotion?
Thanks in advance.

Ręcę do góry
Hi,
I've seen the phrase 'Ręcę do góry' on Clozemaster a few times. I know that it means 'put your hands up' but can someone give an example, or examples, of situations in which you would use this phrase in Poland?
Would you say this to someone in Poland if you wanted them to admit that they are guilty of something???

Mam pytanie
On Clozemaster, I have encountered this sentence:-
'Nie chce wyjść za mąż'. The translation is given as 'I do not want to get married'.
The sentence seems unusual to me, as the literal translation would be something like 'I do not want to leave for(?) husband'. I know that 'za' is a preposition that can have multiple meanings in Polish, however.
Can anyone please clarify how this sentence works in Polish?
As the sentence specifically refers to a husband, would the sentence be normally said by a woman who does not want to get married?
Thanks

Puszka czy puszkę ???
Hi,
Can anyone tell me the difference between 'puszka and puszkę'?
NP 'Puszka piwa' = A can of beer.
Ale ...
'Puszkę sardynek = A tin of sardines.
Więc ... puszka = a can, ale puszkę = a tin?
OR ... are puszka and puszkę the same thing but there is just a grammatical difference here??? Puszkę because 'sardynek' is plural ???
Thanks in advance :)

Mam pytanie
'On wcale nie ma dzieci.' ... po angielsku = 'He has no children at all'
Why not just say 'On nie ma dzieci'?
What does the word 'wcale' add to the sentence, in terms of emotion?
Dzięki.
