Questions & Answers about Konsument ma prawo do odstąpienia.
Why is it Konsument ma prawo do odstąpienia, and not something with jest?
Because Polish uses the fixed expression mieć prawo do + noun to mean to have the right to ....
- ma = has
- prawo = right
- do odstąpienia = to withdraw / to cancellation / to rescission depending on context
So ma prawo do ... is the natural Polish structure here. Using jest would not fit this meaning.
