This article contributes to the body of research exploring the relationship between Polish linguistics and glottodidactics. It responds to the growing call in the literature to strengthen the dialogue between these two disciplines. The paper outlines the key steps of a research procedure based on the idea of mutual knowledge transfer between linguistics and glottodidactics, specifically in relation to the syntactic level of language description in Polish.
Transfer is understood here as the movement of specific experiences and knowledge, from both linguistic material and research observations and generalisations, between linguistic continua. This includes: 1) general Polish and the related research experience, and 2) Polish used by speakers whose first language is Ukrainian, along with the corresponding research experience. Thanks to tandem collaboration between glottodidacticians and linguists, and their creative exchange of ideas and research findings, the relationship between the disciplines can be truly bidirectional. Theoretical concepts and descriptions from linguistics serve as a reservoir of knowledge for glottodidactics, which is then adapted for teaching purposes. At the same time, research findings from glottodidactics and insights from the teaching process can inspire linguistics to broaden its research scope, verify hypotheses, or enhance the explicitness of linguistic descriptions.
The application of this concept is illustrated using specific Polish and Ukrainian language material. The study demonstrates that research driven by glottodidactic needs brings tangible benefits to glottodidactics and Polish and Ukrainian linguistics. It enriches knowledge of the grammatical systems of both languages, thereby enabling updates to grammatical descriptions and lexicographic works and the development of appropriate teaching materials for learners of Polish as a foreign language.
