    What it means

    Means “at the feet of” or “at the foot of”. Used both literally (at someone’s feet) and figuratively (in complete submission or admiration). Example: “Leżał u stóp góry.” — “He lay at the foot of the mountain.”

    Vocabulary

    • u — at, by (preposition + genitive)
    • stóp — of the feet (genitive plural of 'stopa')

    Grammar note

    Preposition 'u' governs the genitive case. 'Stóp' is the genitive plural of 'stopa' (foot).
