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.

„Miasto trzech nazw”, autorka Łucja Zych. W wyszukiwarce jej nie ma, ale dostałem nawet liczbę stron.
'A Town of Three Names', by Łucja Zych. It doesn't come up online, but I even got the number of pages.

Niemożliwe! Im dłużej pytałem, tym więcej wiarygodnych szczegółów dostawałem.
You're joking! The longer I asked, the more convincing details I got.

Gdyby ta sztuczna inteligencja znała też zakończenie, chętnie bym ją zapytała.
If that AI knew the ending as well, I'd happily ask it.
