Day 30: Parking Lessons from Facebook
In the car park of a housing estate in Gliwice, Renata (A) stops her neighbour Ewa (B) to ask about a photo of a badly parked car in the estate's Facebook group.
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.

Tym bardziej trzeba go usunąć. Ludzie potrafią być bardzo złośliwi.
All the more reason to delete it. People can be really nasty.

Proszę go zostawić. Wczoraj parkował mój syn, a on słucha tylko internetu.
Please leave it. It was my son who parked yesterday, and the internet is all he listens to.

Rozumiem. Im więcej złośliwych komentarzy, tym szybciej nauczy się parkować.
I see. The more nasty comments, the faster he'll learn to park.
