    Translation

    Jerzy is lying near the tower and doesn't believe that a bat nest lies on the tower.

    Vocabulary

    • leżeć — to lie, to be lying (3rd sg. present: leży)
    • koło — near, around (+ genitive)
    • wieża — tower (genitive/locative: wieży)
    • gniazdo — nest
    • nietoperz — bat (genitive pl.: nietoperzy)

    Grammar note

    'Koło wieży' — 'koło' takes the genitive. 'Na wieży' in the subordinate clause is locative. 'Gniazdo nietoperzy' — 'nietoperzy' is genitive plural (a nest of bats).
