  What it means

  As the apple tree, so the apple. Children take after their parents — character and qualities are inherited.

  English equivalent

  The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

  Vocabulary

  • jabłoń — apple tree
  • jabłko — apple

  Grammar note

  'Jaka… takie…' is a correlative construction. 'Jabłoń' is feminine, 'jabłko' is neuter — the adjectives agree accordingly.
