Hey! I'm helping out a polish girl (whom I know) in some english assesment. How would I say "you owe me a favour in return" in a somewhat playful/flirtacious context??? Thankyoo

Wisisz mi przysługę

"Wisisz"? An expression characteristic to uneducated folks or maybe.... when you really know someone reeeeeally well. This word has nothing to do with flirt. Perhaps just say: Przysługa za przysługę i.e. "favor for favor"

Wisisz mi przysługę is a playfull way of saying what he wants to say to a young girl. Przysługa za przysługę is neither playful or flirtacious for sure. It is how older folks speak to each other.

young girl

Well...In her 20's. I know her fairly well, though we're something like 20000km apart.

Really? I thought it was fun sounding. But I'll take your word for it. Maybe it does sound bit like "tit-for-tat" in economic terms.

Maybe I'll try "Chętnie ci pomoge. Pod warunkiem że dasz sie zaprośić na lody". Or just stay simple with "Wisisz mi przysługę".

I would be very careful asking for or offering lody, if the conversation is between a man and a woman. It all depends on the context but it can be taken the wrong way. Robić loda is the slang term for bj.
Wiisisz mi przysługę is much safer, especially when said with a smile.

There is another word you may consider using: rewanżować się
Chętnie ci pomoge pod warunkiem, że się zrewanżujesz. (sounds little demanding)
Chętnie ci pomoge, ale czekam na rewanż - this is how i would say

It all depends on how you talk to each other: jokingly and in the playful way ten wisisz mi przysługę is very OK.
Not so playfully then other options are fine

Thanks Zazulka I've gone with "wisisz mi przysługę". Its nice and simple. With the ice cream, well, we know each other so it wouldn't be at all interpreted as a bj, but still I think "wisisz mi przysługę" was best of all options.
