Poles often use 'mieć pewność' in bureaucratic settings. If a clerk says 'Muszę mieć pewność', they are usually asking for more documents. In academic debates, saying 'Nie mam pewności' is seen as a sign of intellectual honesty rather than weakness. Some older Poles believe that having 'too much certainty' about the future can bring bad luck (the 'evil eye'). On Polish social media, 'mieć pewność' is often used when debunking myths or 'fake news'.
