Translation
Jerzy is lying on a tower and doesn't believe that another Jerzy is lying on the other tower.
Vocabulary
- leżeć — to lie, to be lying (3rd sg. present: leży)
- wieża — tower (locative: wieży)
- wierzyć — to believe (3rd sg. present: wierzy)
- drugi — second, another (masc.: drugi)
Grammar note
'Na wieży' and 'na drugiej wieży' are both locatives after 'na'. 'Drugi Jerzy' — 'drugi' here means 'another/a second'. 'Że' introduces the subordinate clause of disbelief.
