    What it means

    Literally “one’s own is drawn to one’s own.” Means birds of a feather flock together — people naturally gravitate toward those similar to themselves.

    Vocabulary

    • ciągnąć — to pull / to be drawn
    • swój — one's own kind

    Grammar note

    'Swój do swego' — both are genitive forms of 'swój.' The subject 'swój' (one's own) is drawn 'do swego' (to one's own).
