A1 Proverb ニュートラル

Tko rano rani, dvije sreće grabi

Early bird catches worm

意味

Waking up early brings success.

🌍

文化的背景

The proverb is a cornerstone of the 'marljivost' (diligence) value in Croatian society, often taught in elementary schools. In coastal regions, this proverb is sometimes used ironically because of the intense afternoon heat which makes early work a necessity, not just a choice. In the agricultural heartland, this proverb is taken very literally regarding the harvest and field work. Younger generations use it on social media to accompany photos of early morning coffee or gym sessions.

🎯
