    What it means

    Literally “to walk one’s own paths.” Means to do things your own way, to be independent and not follow the crowd.

    Vocabulary

    • chadzać — to walk / to go (habitual, frequentative)
    • własny — own
    • droga — road / path / way

    Grammar note

    'Własnymi drogami' is instrumental plural — used after verbs of motion to indicate the path taken. 'Chadzać' is the frequentative form of 'chodzić,' implying habitual behavior.
