Cultural Note

'Romans' in Polish has a dual meaning: it can refer to a romantic novel (literature) or a love affair (often implying something passionate and possibly illicit). When referring to an extramarital affair, Poles often use 'romans' — so context matters. A 'wakacyjny romans' (summer romance) is a well-known cultural concept of a holiday fling.
