    Translation

    Jerzy is sitting on the tower and doesn't believe that yet another Jerzy is sitting on the tower.

    Vocabulary

    • siedzieć — to sit (3rd sg. present: siedzi)
    • wieża — tower (locative: wieży)
    • wierzyć — to believe (3rd sg. present: wierzy)
    • jeszcze jeden — yet another, one more

    Grammar note

    'Na wieży' is locative after 'na'. The subordinate clause mirrors the main clause with inverted word order — verb-final 'Jerzy siedzi' instead of verb-initial 'siedzi Jerzy'. Both are grammatical in Polish.
