خلفية ثقافية
In Polish schools, 'robić postępy' is a key phrase in descriptive evaluations (oceny opisowe) for younger children, focusing on effort rather than just grades. During 'feedback' sessions in Polish offices, this phrase is used to soften criticism by acknowledging that while goals aren't met, progress is being made. Among Poles living abroad, 'robić postępy' is often used when discussing how well their children are maintaining the Polish language. The concept of 'Postęp' was a major theme in 19th-century Polish Positivism, where intellectuals argued for organic work and education to improve society.
Use with 'w'
Always follow the phrase with 'w' + Locative to specify the field of progress (e.g., 'w nauce', 'w pracy').
Plural is key
Remember that 'postęp' is singular, but 'postępy' is what you 'make'. Using the singular is a common beginner mistake.
