    What it means

    Literally “let’s drink, because the vodka is getting cold.” A humorous, ironic invitation to drink. Since vodka is served cold, it can’t actually “cool down” in a bad way.

    Vocabulary

    • stygnąć — to get cold / to cool down
    • wódka — vodka

    Grammar note

    'Pijmy' is the first-person plural imperative (let's drink).

    Cultural context

    A classic example of Polish drinking humor, used to speed up the pace of a toast.
