B1 Collocation Neutre

zrobić awans

to get a promotion

Signification

To advance in a career.

🌍

Contexte culturel

In Poland, a promotion often comes with a very specific change in title on your business card (wizytówka). Titles are taken seriously in formal correspondence. In the US, 'making a promotion' isn't said; it's 'getting a promotion'. The focus is often on the increased salary and benefits rather than just the title. Promotion is often based on seniority (nenko joretsu), though this is changing. 'Zrobić awans' in a Japanese context might be seen as a natural progression of time rather than just individual effort. The British might use 'moving up the ladder' or 'getting a step up'. It is often discussed with a bit of 'understated' pride.

🎯

Use 'na' for the position

Always remember: zrobić awans NA + [position in Accusative]. Example: 'awans na dyrektora'.

⚠️

Don't say 'mieć'

Saying 'mam awans' sounds like you are holding a physical object. Use 'zrobiłem' or 'dostałem'.
