    What it means

    Literally “why wouldn’t it be.” Means “why not” — an open, agreeable response suggesting there’s no reason to refuse or object. Slightly more formal than ‘czemu by nie’.

    Vocabulary

    • dlaczego — why
    • by — would (conditional particle)
    • nie — not

    Grammar note

    'By' is the conditional particle — the phrase implies 'why would there be a reason not to'.
