Jak to przetłumaczyć na polski? - What makes you so sure I lost it?
- Because you're you.

The first sentence can be translated to: "Skąd masz taką pewność, że to zgubiłem/łam?" (depending on the gender of the person who lost it) or more literally: "Co cię tak upewnia w tym, że to zgubiłem/łam?"

Things get more complicated with the 2nd one. You can say:
- Bo cię znam. (Because I know you)
- Bo wiem, do czego jesteś zdolny/zdolna. (Because I know what you are able to do)
- Bo wiem, jaki jesteś. (Because I know what you're like.)

You could translate it literally and say "Bo jesteś sobą." and ppl would understand you, but it doesn't sound natural to talk about general facts in this case. It would be better to refer it to "me doing sth towards you", like "I know you", "I feel you" etc - like the translations I've already mentioned.

I KNOW!!! Say: Bo jesteś, jaki/jaka jesteś. I think it's the best translation for the 2nd sentence and sounds very natural in this case.

@pandryf thanks a lot! I forgot to mention that the logical stress in the first line is on the "I". Can I say "Skąd masz taką pewność, że (właśnie) ja to zgubiłem"?
Also, can I alternatively say "Bo jesteś kim jesteś" instead of "Bo jesteś jaki jesteś"? Will it sound equally natural?
