"You cannot do this without electricity."

Translation: Nie możesz tego zrobić bez elektryczności.

Jaka jest różnica między słowami "prąd" oraz "elektryczność"?

[jagonics]

The difference is the same as the difference between the words "electric current" and "electricity".

According to Wikipedia:

• Electricity is the set of physical phenomena associated with the presence and flow of electric charge. Electricity gives a wide variety of well-known effects, such as lightning, static electricity, electromagnetic induction and electric current.
• An electric current is a flow of electric charge. In electric circuits this charge is often carried by moving electrons in a wire.

Electricity is more general. A lightning is an example of electricity, an electric current is also an example of electricity.

Dziękuję za wyjaśnienie :)

I'd also say that "prąd" in Polish is like "power" in English - technically they mean different things, but are usually used instead of "electricity" in common language.

"Nie można tego robić," interpreting the English construction as generic?

Looks good to me; was it accepted?

[alik1989]

Yes, it's an accepted answer. It slightly shifts the meaning towards "you are not allowed to".

What about "Nie da się tego zrobić bez elektryczności"? Thanks.

Interpreting 'you' as 'one' here? Sure, added.
