witam
welcome, greetings (I welcome you)
Pronunciation
/ˈvi.tam/
Cultural Note
'Witam' is a somewhat controversial greeting in Polish. Traditionally, only the host or person of higher status says 'witam' (I welcome you). Using it casually (e.g., in emails to a boss) can be seen as presumptuous. 'Dzień dobry' is always safer.
