git

Cultural Note

'Git' is one of Poland's oldest slang words, borrowed from Romani language ('gid' = good). It simply means 'good' or 'fine' and is used as a one-word response. 'Wszystko git?' (everything good?) is the ultra-casual way to ask how someone is. It's been around for decades and is used across all age groups. Short, punchy, and universally understood — it's the slang equivalent of 'dobrze' (good/fine). Programmers in Poland find it amusing because of the version control system with the same name.
