A2 Collocation ニュートラル

zrobić na złość

to do something out of spite

意味

To intentionally annoy someone.

🌍

文化的背景

The concept of 'przekora' (contrarianism) is a valued, if frustrating, national trait. Doing things 'na złość' is often seen as a sign of a strong, independent character. There is a stereotype that clerks might do things 'na złość' to citizens by demanding extra paperwork, reflecting a power dynamic. Many classic Polish comedies (e.g., 'Sami Swoi') are entirely based on two neighbors doing things 'na złość' to each other for decades. In the era of influencers, 'robienie na złość' often takes the form of 'unfollowing' or posting specific content to provoke an ex-partner.

💡

Use with 'specjalnie'

Adding 'specjalnie' (on purpose) makes the phrase sound much more natural and emphatic in a complaint.

⚠️

Dative Case

Always remember: it's 'mi', 'ci', 'mu', not 'mnie', 'ciebie', 'jego' in this context.

Yes! Use 'robić' for habits ('On zawsze robi mi na złość') and 'zrobić' for one-time actions.

It's not a swear word, but it is an accusation. Use it when you are actually annoyed.

'Na złość' is an idiom for the motivation; 'złośliwie' is an adverb meaning 'maliciously'. They are similar but 'na złość' is more common in speech.

No, it sounds a bit childish. Use 'działać na szkodę firmy' or 'utrudniać pracę' instead.

In this specific idiom, it means 'spite' or 'malice' rather than just the feeling of being angry.

You say 'zrobić sobie na złość'. It's common when you do something that hurts you just to prove a point.

The formal version would be 'działać złośliwie' or 'podejmować działania odwetowe'.

No, 'do' is wrong. It must be 'bratu' (Dative).
