Cultural Insight |
Eric: Now it's time for a quick cultural insight. |
Marzena: On the phone, after the person answering says Tak słucham we usually answer with Dzień dobry meaning "Good morning/good afternoon", but if it's really late it is ok to say Dobry wieczór meaning "Good evening". When you call a friend, you can say Cześć, which means "Hello" and can be also used as "bye" at the end of the conversation. |
