Where Is the Toilet, Please?

To the next lesson

Oprostite, gdje je zahod? means “Excuse me, where is the toilet?” Two of the three parts are already familiar.

You ask the old man from chapter 1, the one having a drink who raises a toast to you and has a tiger with a teacup on his jumper: oprostite. He points to the other wall, where the large lady is standing on the elephant – the familiar gdje je. Behind it a door opens: there is sand on the floor, trousers are hanging on a rail, and you can shower there too. Sand, trousers (Hosen in German) and showering give you zahod.

From here on you will notice the course speeding up: new sentences increasingly consist of images you already carry around.
