to have no contact with someone

معنی

To not be communicating with someone.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

The 'Great Emigration' after 2004 made 'nie mieć kontaktu' a common family theme. Many grandparents only have contact with their grandkids via Skype/WhatsApp. The concept of 'ghosting' is often translated as 'urywanie kontaktu' (cutting contact) or simply 'nie mieć kontaktu' after a date. In Japan, 'enryo' (restraint) might lead someone to not have contact to avoid being a burden, whereas in Poland, it's often seen as a negative thing. In the modern remote-work world, 'brak kontaktu' is a serious professional issue often discussed in performance reviews.
