뜻
Effort leads to discovery.
문화적 배경
The proverb is often associated with 'houbaření' (mushroom picking), a national obsession. If you don't find mushrooms, you aren't looking hard enough. The phrase is identical in Slovak ('Kto hľadá, nájde') and carries the same cultural weight and biblical origin. The phrase is a direct descendant of the Sermon on the Mount, making it a bridge between religious and secular life in Europe. In the age of Google, this phrase is sometimes used ironically when someone asks a question they could have easily searched for themselves.
Add 'ten' for rhythm
Saying 'Kdo hledá, ten najde' sounds more natural and rhythmic to native speakers.
Don't use for luck
Don't use this if someone wins a game of chance. It's only for things that require effort.
