Day 184: Four Hundred Days on Snapchat

At a phone repair shop in Żywiec, a seventeen-year-old girl (A) brings the young technician (B) her phone with a smashed screen.

How to study this lesson 3 steps
  1. Read the situation under the title. It says who is talking and how they know each other, which decides how politely they speak.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.

  1. A

    Dzień dobry, zbiłam ekran i telefon nie reaguje na dotyk. Naprawi go pan jeszcze dzisiaj?

    Hello, I've smashed my screen and the phone doesn't respond when I touch it. Could you fix it today?

  2. B

    Niestety, z powodu braku części dopiero jutro. W razie potrzeby mam dla pani telefon zastępczy.

    I'm afraid we're out of parts, so not until tomorrow. If you need one, I've got a loan phone for you.

  3. A

    Jutro? Przy moim streaku na Snapie już wisi klepsydra, a to czterysta dni!

    Tomorrow? The hourglass is already showing next to my Snapchat streak, and it's four hundred days!

  4. B

    Spokojnie, wyśle pani zdjęcie z zastępczego. Byle nie zwykłą wiadomość, bo czat się nie liczy.

    Don't worry, you can send a photo from the loan phone. Just not an ordinary message, because chat doesn't count.

  5. A

    Serio? Nie wiem, skąd pan to wie, ale właśnie uratował mi pan życie.

    Seriously? I don't know how you know all that, but you've just saved my life.

  6. B

    Sam kiedyś straciłem streaka z bratem. A z kim ma pani swojego?

    I once lost a streak with my brother myself. And who's yours with?

  7. A

    Z babcią. Od ponad roku co rano wysyła mi fotkę swoich kur.

    My gran. For over a year she's been sending me a pic of her hens every morning.
