"The presented fragment of the radio broadcast, titled 'Słownik na Fali' (Dictionary on the Airwave), focuses on the linguistic and cultural analysis of words related to an oath. Dr. Habil. Sebastian Żurowski, a linguist from Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń, together with Jarosław Banaś from Polish Radio Koszalin, discuss the differences between 'przysięga' (oath), 'zaprzysiężenie' (swearing in), and 'sprzysiężenie' (conspiracy). The broadcast highlights the historical and romantic connotations of 'sprzysiężenie', contrasting them with contemporary conspiracy theories, which are often unprovable due to their secret nature. They also discuss how the Internet accelerates the spread of conspiracy narratives and how difficult it is to defend oneself against such accusations in the digital age. At the end of the broadcast, the issue of 'krzywoprzysięstwo' (perjury) as a crime is raised."
