Question about Polish
I've once heard the sentence: "Kimże ja jestem, żeby powiedzieć...", why is used że here? Is it an intensifier? When do I use it? Can you also give me some examples of this usage?

To zdanie brzmi jak z jakiejś starej książki. Nie jest to forma, której używa się na co dzień. Nie sądzę, że kiedykolwiek będzie ci to potrzebne w rozmowie ;)

Że in this sentence is unnecessary. You can also say ,,Kim ja jestem, żeby powiedzieć..." and that will be more correct.
Że in words was use in old polish so today you not say kimże, just Kim.
But if you want examples, that will be:
Kimże
idźże (idź) - go
czemużeś (czemu) - why?
skądże (skąd) - whence

@Athorin_ Sometimes Polish speaking like that for fun, like:
- Masz pomóc swojej koleżance - You have to help your friend.
- Kimże ty jesteś, żeby mi mówić co mam robić? - who are you to tell me what to do?
but some this words are use normal like:
to byłeś ty? - That was you?
skądże... - (that can be translate like ,,That's not true"
