zrobić ukłon

to make a bow

معنی

Showing respect or greeting someone.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

In the 17th century, the 'ukłon' was part of the 'Sarmatian' culture. Nobles would sometimes bow so low they would touch the floor with their hand to show extreme respect. Polish business culture is becoming more egalitarian, but using phrases like 'ukłon w stronę klienta' is still seen as a sign of high-quality service and professionalism. In Polish theaters, the 'ukłon' is a sacred ritual. Actors often come out multiple times if the applause is loud, making different types of bows. In Polish diplomacy, 'zrobić ukłon' describes a move that allows the other side to 'save face' (zachować twarz).

🎯
