How to study this lesson 3 steps
- Read the situation under the title. It says who is talking and how they know each other, which decides how politely they speak.
- Read the dialogue line by line with its translation, until every line makes sense. Point at (or tap) a Polish word to see what it means.
- Spend at least 30 minutes listening to native Polish, for example from the Resources page. It doesn't matter if you don't understand it yet.
Dialogue
Audio recordings are on the way. For now, each lesson is the dialogue with its English translation.

Poproszę tę różę. Napisze pan na kartce „Przepraszam, Olu”?

Już piszę. A co pani zrobiła?
I'm writing it now. So what did you do?

Nic nie zrobiłam! To ona pisała o mnie głupoty.
I didn't do anything! She's the one who was writing rubbish about me.

To czemu pani przeprasza? Powinno być odwrotnie.
Then why are you apologising? It should be the other way round.

Racja. Niech pan nic nie pisze, różę biorę dla siebie.
True. Don't write anything, then. I'm keeping the rose for myself.
