  What it means

  Literally “better late than never.” Means it’s better to do something late than not at all — identical to the English proverb.

  Vocabulary

  • późno — late
  • wcale — at all, not at all
  • niż — than

  Grammar note

  Comparative construction: 'lepiej … niż' (better … than). 'Wcale' in positive context means 'at all'.
