    What it means

    A vulgar but very common expression meaning “to be screwed” or “to be in deep trouble” — to be in a hopeless or very difficult situation with no good way out. The literal words are crude, but the phrase functions much like English “to be fucked.”

    Vocabulary

    • mieć — to have
    • przejebane — (vulgar) a bad situation, being screwed

    Grammar note

    Uses 'mieć' + a past passive participle in a fixed vulgar construction. Conjugate only 'mieć' to change subject: 'masz przejebane', 'ma przejebane'.

    Cultural context

    Widely used in informal speech across age groups despite its vulgarity. Considered coarse but not taboo in casual settings.
