सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Poles value specific sources. When you say you 'got information', people will often ask 'from whom?' to judge its reliability. In modern offices, 'dostać info' is often used as a direct translation of 'get an update', reflecting the influence of English business culture. Getting information from a government office is often described with 'uzyskać' to emphasize the effort required. Shortening words is common in Polish texting. 'Info' is one of the most common loanwords used this way.
Use the Plural
Always default to 'informacje' (plural). Using the singular 'informacja' sounds like you are talking about one very specific, isolated fact.
Negation Rule
Don't forget to change the ending to '-i' when you say 'Nie dostałem...'. It's a classic B1 exam trap!
