  What it means

  “A great family, but everyone fends for themselves.” Despite noble lineage or a large clan, each person must look after their own interests. Family name doesn’t guarantee mutual support.

  Vocabulary

  • ród — family, lineage, clan
  • wielki — great, large
  • każdy — everyone, each
  • sobie — for oneself
  • robić — to do, to make

  Grammar note

  'Sobie' is the dative reflexive pronoun, indicating action done for oneself. 'Rób' is the imperative of 'robić'.
