W języku ojczystym
Particles such as czy, już, się, by, niech carry key grammatical and discourse meanings.

Q he already came.
W języku docelowym
Particles are central: they mark negation, future, subordination, emphasis, case government and discourse relations.

I will not go today.
Learners may memorize particles as words but miss how they control verb or noun forms.
Same block, different coding
Both languages use this block strongly, but they signal it differently. Focus on form changes, not only meaning.
