Chcesz mnie nabrać?

English Phonemes: “htseh[sz] myneh NAH-brahch”

Literal Translation: You want me to take on?

Elegant Translation: You want to take me on?

English Equivalent: Are you pulling my leg?

Bouncing off from last week’s April Fool’s episode, this is a different way to challenge a potential trickster! You can say this to anyone you have an informal relationship with. It’s basically a question form of last week’s episode. (I wanted you to have the variety.)

Also, fun fact, if you change the tone, you can absolutely use this as a statement! So, if feel free to adjust the tone to your wishes!

Chcesz = you want [verb, 2nd p. s. informal, present tense]
Mnie = me [pronoun, s. obj. form]
Nabrać = to take on (slang for trick, or fool) [verb, infinitive]
