JĘZYK POLSKI - LEKCJA 1 ;)

(You don't even imagine how long it took to make this video!! :D)

I was asked to make a video with some basic Polish phrases but I stated that before uploading a video with dialogues, it would be helpful to focus on the prunciation, the Polish alphabet etc.

In this video you'll get familiar with the Polish sounds. I'm sorry for the bad quality :(

The alphabeth:
A, Ą, B, C, Ć, D, E, Ę, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, Ń, O, Ó, P, R, S, Ś, T, U, W, Y, Z, Ź, Ź.

The diacritics:
ą, ć, ę, ł, ń, ó, ś, ź, ż.
Thw vowels in the alphabet:
a, ą, e, ę, i, o, u, y.
The digraphs:
ch, cz, dz, dź, dż, dź, sz.
The voicless sounds:
t, p, f, s, k, c, sz, cz, ś, ć.
The voiced equivalents of the sounds above:
d, b, w, z, g, dz, ż, dż, ź, dź.
Equal sounds:
h - ch; ó - u; ż - rz.
Stressed syllable: the penultimate one.

GOOD LUCK WITH LEARNING POLISH! Powodzenia w nauce języka polskiego! :D

  • ż does not remind bonjour :O

  • @milczypiotr I meant, the 'j' in bonjour, obviously :)

  • Some sounds are similar to Chinese. "rz" is like Chinese "r". dz(dot) is like Chinese "zh".

  • @criskity Oh wow, that was a surprising thing to hear! I don't speak any Chinese, so I'll just trust your words:)

  • Quiero aprender, pero es bastante difícil :( Igual, muchas gracias. Thank you so much.

  • @elenadarkness4 De nada, sé que el polaco es difícil. Igual... ¡buena suerte! :)

  • You wrote "ę at the end of a word loses its nasality", but then you pronounce "idę" and "uczę się" nasally... I'm confused :0

  • brilliant!! thank you very much!

  • I'm learning Polish and find it difficult to distinguish and hear the difference between all of the "zh," "sh," and "ch" sounds as in z, z(with dot), z(with accent mark), etc. Your pronunciation was very clear! Thank you!

  • @M4ulandi Kurwa is out of fasion, now we use kurvix

  • @elenadarkness4 !espanol es mas y mas popular!

  • my my let get bck to J biever XD

  • I'm half pollack and proud :D

  • @AyeAyeKapitanie of course. But I meant the sounds aren't the same. I find the french 'j' more similar to the polish 'ź'. But then again, I suppose there is no equivalent to ż in a non-slavic language. So never mind :)
