    Translation

    Stroke the neighing foal, horseman!

    Vocabulary

    • głaskać — to stroke, to pet (imperative: głaszcz)
    • jeździec — horseman, rider (vocative: jeźdźcze)
    • rżeć — to neigh (present active participle gen. masc.: rżącego)
    • źrebiec — foal, young stallion (genitive: źrebca)

    Grammar note

    'Jeźdźcze' is the vocative of 'jeździec' — used for direct address. 'Rżącego źrebca' is the accusative with a genitive-form participle: 'głaskać' takes the accusative, and 'rżącego' agrees with 'źrebca' in accusative masculine animate.
