뜻
Doing what was suggested.
문화적 배경
Poles value 'dobra rada' (good advice) highly, especially from family members. It is common for parents to give advice to adult children, and 'pójście za radą' is seen as a sign of familial respect. In modern Polish offices, 'pójście za radą' is often used when discussing consultants or external audits. It sounds more decisive and professional than 'słuchać się kogoś'. In classic Polish literature (like Sienkiewicz), characters often 'idą za radą' of a mentor or a priest, highlighting the moral weight of following wisdom. On Polish forums like Wykop or Reddit, users often say 'poszedłem za waszą radą' when reporting back on a problem they asked about.
Use the past tense
Most of the time, you will use this in the past tense ('poszedłem/poszłam') because you are reporting that you already did what was suggested.
Watch the 'ą'
Don't forget the tail on the 'ą' in 'radą'. Without it, 'rada' is the wrong case and the sentence becomes ungrammatical.
