뜻
To stop talking about irrelevant things.
문화적 배경
In Polish business culture, 'konkret' is a virtue. Being able to 'przejść do rzeczy' quickly is seen as a sign of competence and respect for the other person's schedule. While directness is valued, jumping too quickly to the point in a social setting can be seen as 'chłodne' (cold). It's common to have at least 2-5 minutes of small talk first. The phrase is often used in debates to call out an opponent who is avoiding a difficult question or using 'erystyka' (rhetorical tricks). Polish YouTubers often use 'przejdźmy do rzeczy' as a verbal 'jump cut' to keep viewers from clicking away during long intros.
The 'Let's' Trick
Use 'Przejdźmy do rzeczy' (Let's get to the point) to sound like a leader without being bossy.
Don't be too fast
In Poland, jumping to the point in the first 10 seconds of a phone call to a friend can seem rude. Ask 'Co słychać?' first.
