意思
Time is a valuable resource.
文化背景
The phrase is closely linked to the 'Baťa' legacy. Tomáš Baťa's systems of efficiency are still taught in Czech business schools. As the origin of the modern phrasing, Americans use this very frequently and directly, often more so than Czechs. Germans share the Czech emphasis on punctuality, making 'Zeit ist Geld' a core cultural value in professional life. In these cultures, time is often viewed more fluidly. Using 'Time is money' too aggressively might be seen as stressful or rude.
Grammar Hack
Always remember the plural 'jsou'. If you say 'je', people will understand, but you'll sound like a beginner.
Social Sensitivity
Don't use this with your Czech grandmother when she's telling you a long story. It's considered very disrespectful.
