المعنى
Pain goes away over time.
خلفية ثقافية
In Slovak culture, silence is often preferred over empty talk during grief. This proverb is one of the few acceptable things to say when words fail. There is a shared stoicism in the region. People believe in 'pretrpieť' (suffering through) something until time fixes it. Slovak youth use this ironically sometimes when something minor goes wrong, like a phone screen breaking. Older generations connect this to the healing power of herbs and nature, viewing time as a natural medicine.
Use it sparingly
It's a powerful phrase. If you say it too often, it loses its meaning.
Don't use for physical pain
If someone has a broken leg, don't say this. They will think you are joking.
