Boli mnie głowa!

It's quite cold these days... I'm ill lying in the bed, so that is why the topic of this post is:

ZDROWIE (HEATH)


How to say that you have a headache/ a stomachache etc.?
We have special construction for that:

Boli mnie głowa.- I have a headache.
Boli mnie brzuch.- I have a stomachache.
Boli mnie gardło.- I have a sore throat.
Boli mnie ręka. - I have a pain in my arm.

or for plural words like eyes, ears etc.

Bolą mnie oczy.- My eyes hurt.
Bolą mnie uszy.- My ears hurt.
Bolą mnie nogi.- My legs hurt.

So please start your sentence with BOLI or BOLĄ and then you need to use personal pronouns (I, you, she etc.) in Accusative case:

ja- mnie
ty- cię
on- go
ona- ją
ono- je
my- nas
wy- was
oni- ich
one- je

So if you have a headache, you say: Boli mnie głowa, but if you want to say that she has a headache, then: Boli głowa.
Have a look at more examples:

Bolą ją oczy.- Her eyes hurts.
Boli ich brzuch.- They have a stomachache.
Boli go gardło.- He has a sorethroat.

How would you say in Polish: 1) Her arm hurts., 2) You have a stomachache. 3) Our ears hurt. 3) I don't have a headache, I have a stomachache ?
