Day 133: Viral in the Corridor
At a secondary school in Mińsk Mazowiecki, Tymon (A), a sixteen-year-old pupil, comes to see his form teacher, Mr Jabłoński (B), who has asked to talk to him.
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.

Wzywał mnie pan? Jeśli chodzi o filmik, który wrzuciłem na TikToka, to już go usunąłem.
You wanted to see me, sir? If it's about the video I put on TikTok, I've already deleted it.

Za późno, pan dyrektor zdążył obejrzeć wasz taniec na korytarzu, i to kilka razy.
Too late, the head has already watched your dance in the corridor. Several times, in fact.

No nie. Mama kazała, żebym go skasował, zanim ktoś ze szkoły zobaczy.
Oh no. Mum told me to delete it before anyone from school saw it.

Nagrałeś go wbrew regulaminowi, ale spokojnie, dyrekcja nie planuje żadnej kary.
You filmed it against the school rules, but relax, the school isn't planning to punish anyone.

Serio? To o co chodzi, mam przeprosić na apelu?
Seriously? Then what's this about, do I have to apologise at assembly?

Nie, pan dyrektor prosi, żebyś nakręcił podobny filmik na dzień otwarty. I żebym ci pomógł.
No, the head wants you to make a similar video for the open day. And he wants me to help you.

Dobra, ale pod jednym warunkiem: pan też zatańczy.
OK, but on one condition: you dance too, sir.
