    What it means

    Literally “good for nothing.” Means useless, worthless, terrible — used to dismiss a person or thing as completely without value or quality.

    Vocabulary

    • do — to / for
    • niczego — nothing (genitive of 'nic')

    Grammar note

    'Niczego' is the genitive of 'nic' after 'do'. The phrase functions as a predicate adjective: 'to jest do niczego' (this is useless).
