  What it means

  Literally “whoever is first is better.” Means first come, first served — being first gives you the advantage. “First come, first served,” “the early bird gets the worm.”

  Vocabulary

  • pierwszy — first
  • lepszy — better

  Grammar note

  'Kto … ten' — correlative pronoun construction: 'whoever … that one'. Both predicates are nominative.
