  What it means

  “To come to fruition / to materialise / to take place.” When a plan, event, or agreement actually happens — when something comes off successfully.

  Vocabulary

  • dojść — to reach, to come to (perfective)
  • skutek — effect, result
  • do skutku — to effect, to fruition

  Grammar note

  'Do skutku' uses the genitive of 'skutek' after 'do'. The negated form 'nie doszło do skutku' (it didn't come off / it fell through) is equally common.
