    What it means

    “A piece of bread won’t fall from the sky.” Nothing comes for free — you have to work for what you need. A reminder that basic necessities require effort.

    English equivalent

    There's no such thing as a free lunch.

    Vocabulary

    • kawałek — piece, chunk
    • chleb — bread
    • spaść — to fall
    • niebo — sky, heaven

    Grammar note

    'Z nieba' uses the genitive after 'z' (from). 'Nie spadnie' is a negated future perfective.
