Listen
Translation
Does the good-natured postmaster from Tczew often dance the cha-cha?
Vocabulary
- poczciwy — good-natured, decent
- poczmistrz — postmaster (archaic)
- Tczew — a town in northern Poland (genitive: Tczewa)
- często — often
- tańczyć — to dance (3rd sg. present: tańczy)
- cza-cza — cha-cha (the dance; accusative: cza-czę)
Grammar note
'Z Tczewa' takes the genitive after 'z' (from). 'Tańczy cza-czę': 'cza-czę' is the accusative of 'cza-cza', the direct object of 'tańczyć'. 'Czy' opens a yes-or-no question.
