뜻
Looking exactly like someone else.
문화적 배경
In Poland, it's very common for strangers to comment on a child's resemblance to their parents using this idiom. It's seen as a friendly social lubricant. Historically, seeing your 'double' was sometimes considered an omen, but this idiom has completely lost any negative connotation and is now purely observational. The idiom is frequently used in tabloid headlines to compare celebrities or highlight 'secret' siblings. In big cities like Warsaw, you might hear this idiom used sarcastically about the 'cookie-cutter' architecture of new housing estates.
Gender Matters
Always remember 'dwie' (feminine) because 'kropla' is feminine. Using 'dwa' is the most common learner error.
Use with 'Wyglądać'
Pairing this with 'wyglądać z + [person in Instrumental]' makes you sound very advanced.
