    What it means

    Literally “to float among the clouds.” Means to daydream, to have one’s head in the clouds — to be lost in fantasy rather than paying attention to reality.

    Vocabulary

    • bujać — to float / to swing / to rock
    • obłoki — clouds (poetic plural)

    Grammar note

    'W obłokach' uses the locative plural of 'obłok' after 'w.' 'Obłok' is a more poetic/literary word for cloud than the everyday 'chmura.'
