Wygrałoś
Wow, that's a completely new form to me! Do you know any examples of where I can find it - or even a description - as my usual online sources are failing me :)
I like your word-hack using Osoba! I'm loving learning Polish, it's a real eye-opener about how languages can work.
- ajuc 14y ago"Wygrałoś" (You-neutral have won) is made from "wygrało" (It have won) in the same way "wygrałaś"(You-female have won) is made from "wygrała"(She have won), or "Wygrałeś"(You-male have won) is made from "wygrał"(he have won). In Polish kid is neutral gender, so you theorethically could use "wygrałoś" when speaking with a kid. But nobody uses that, so it sounds strange ven for native speakers. I don't remember ever hearing it.

Heh, I was just curious as I hadn't seen that form anywhere :) That said, the Polish Wiktionary wygrać entry (http://pl.wiktionary.org/wiki/wygra%C4%87 http://pl.wiktionary.org/wiki/wygra%C4%87) lists it and a couple of other new-to-me ones as "forma potencjalna", so I guess it's possible in theory, but as you say, just not used.
