  What it means

  Literally “to come out with one’s face intact.” Means to save face — to emerge from a difficult situation with your dignity and reputation preserved.

  Vocabulary

  • wyjść — to exit / to emerge
  • twarz — face

  Grammar note

  'Z twarzą' uses the instrumental of 'twarz' after 'z.' In Polish, 'z + instrumental' often describes the state or condition in which you exit a situation.
