Day 14: The Upside-Down Cat
At an exhibition of pupils' art in the community centre in Płock, Antek (A) and his classmate Maja (B) look for their pictures.
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.

Super, a gdzie jest mój kot? Nigdzie go nie widzę.
Cool, but where's my cat? I can't see it anywhere.

Tam, przy oknie. Tylko chyba został zawieszony do góry nogami.
Over there, by the window. Only I think it's been hung upside down.

No nie! Teraz mój kot wisi na drzewie jak nietoperz!
Oh no! Now my cat's hanging from the tree like a bat!

Gdyby nie ta kartka z tytułem, nikt by nic nie zauważył.
If it weren't for the label with the title, nobody would notice a thing.

No dobra, niech wisi. Ale na kartce zmienię tytuł na „Nietoperz”.
Oh, all right, it can stay. But I'm changing the title on the label to "Bat".
