  What it means

  Literally “why wouldn’t it be.” Means “why not” — a casual, open-minded agreement or willingness to try something. Less emphatic than a direct yes.

  Vocabulary

  • czemu — why (dative/colloquial form of 'dlaczego')
  • by — would (conditional particle)

  Grammar note

  'By' is the conditional particle — 'czemu by nie' literally asks why it wouldn't be possible, implying there's no reason against it.
