OMG how difficult, yet beautiful language! I will keep learning, many thanks for your lessons!

[@juilescieg]

I was born in poland an can speak the language. yet i am not good in writing it. so don´t bother to much with the letters. learn to speak and understand it. ^^

[@jacekplacek8274]

[@invadertifxiii]

@@jacekplacek8274 thats how i am with spanish, i can read it easier that i can pronounce it

[@gurriato]

Similarly to Chinese, whenever you are not sure on how to read a Polish consonant, try with some kind of sh or ch sound and you'll be fine most of the time.

[@adirang2926]

My thoughts exactly! 🥲

[@rexounouille4817]

I fell in love with the Polish language, really beautiful one I think. Thank you for this videos

Dzięki Monika! To jest najlepszy filmik z wymową, jaki kiedykolwiek widziałam. Thanks Monika! This is the best pronunciation video I've ever seen.

Thank you Monika! Your channel is helping me a lot to understand my (non) native language, hope to see more videos soon!! Hugs from Argentina

Thank you so much!!!! I just randomly decided one day to learn polish and I’m starting from the bottom up and luckily your video is the first one I’ve seen that’s very helpful and insightful . Thank you thank you thank you

[@chilehabanero007]

Thanks Monika , great lesson I have watched your previous videos for specific letters or letter combinations and they helped me greatly with the pronunciation, thanks again I’m glad to see you back

[@debbenning-edgar]

Dzięki, dzięki! Finally I understand the reasons of ‘why’ for voice & voiceless constanants❣️

[@mockingbird3099]

Excellent presentation! This brings much clarity. Thanks!

Thank you, Monika! Your explanation about the voiced and voiceless pronunciation was so helpful. The video is wonderfully clear. I am inspired!

the best for me to clear all the confusions of polish alphabets Pronouciation ever! Many thanks.

[@RamKrishna-hf6dd]

The best video I've found thus far regarding pronunciation of Polish

[@PolishwithMonika]

[@Skiskiski]

The first thing you should know is that "a" with ogonek is not any more pronounced as nasal "a," but as nasal "o" sound in Polish. Polish o is really "ɔ." And it is pronounced like an "o" sound in the American English pronunciation of "thought" [θɔːt]. Polish "o" is not pronounced like the "o" in the American pronunciation of "pot."

[@aidenbustos8625]

But thought and pot make the same o sound though.

[@ilovesparky13]

Thought and pot have the same exact sound

[@henbane2247]

thought and pot have different sounds

[@rick_terscale1111]

ą = bon (french) or song (english) ... 'ohn' sound but without pronouncing the n. It is very similar to the French pronunciation. Thought = aw = thaw-t ... a slightly shorter sound than "awn' or "ohn". It is just the 'aw' or 'oh' ound. Pot = o .... even shorter still. It is just the 'o' sound.

[@olatatina9856]

Świetny materiał, szukałam czegoś, co ma od razu wytłumaczone ubezdźwięcznienia. Uczniowie często nadaremnie próbują wymawiać głoski dźwięczne w miejscach, gdzie po prostu nie da się ich wymówić. Zasada jest bardzo prosta, dlatego uważam, że jak najbardziej umieszczenie jej w filmiku to super wybór. Fajnie byłoby też wspomnieć, że "ą" to nosowe "o", bo uczniom kojarzy się zawsze z literą "a". Wielkie dzięki!

[@earlhassel2400]

There are many such videos for learning Polish but this is truly the best.

[@marynarkiewicz9794]

Oh if only some learning would stick in my brain! I grew up hearing my father and aunts and uncles speak Polish to their mother, my grandmother.. I only picked up a few words as a child.. Trying to learn over the decades.. This is very helpful.. a bit daunting, but very helpful!!!

[@MukesVacseen]

This channel is so underrated. Thanks Monica :)

[@emmanuellorenzo3905]

What a wonderful video, I started learning Polish a month ago and this video is so helpful. Thanks a lot, new subscriber here.

[@i_prefer_cake9677]

I love this video! I'm also glad that I already know what sounds will be voiceless because in this case polish is similar to hungarian.

[@nocomment2468]

There are many letter combos to remember in Polish, but they seem logical. Thanks for the very clear video! There's no comparison with English, which has so many more combinations, and half of the time the rules are broken.

[@ldoll6296]

This is such a good video you’ve done so well explaining it I have learnt a lot!! We don’t have any of the ‘ć, dż, ń’ letters in the English language so I’m used to saying letters exactly how they are written in English if that makes sense 😂 so I want to say ć like ‘ka’ but in polish it’s more of a ‘ch , I wonder if polish is easier to learn if you’re French or Spanish cause I know they use diacritics 🧐❤

[@ldoll6296]

I also cannot roll my tongue to make the ‘R’ sound 😢

[@makedaevilmage]

Thanks a lot for the vid, I learned a lot! Also that words are pronounced the same or similar to some Russian words. (I learned a little Russian about two years ago. I'm Dutch).

[@pammillerhoward7785]

I have been using Duolingo, but they never explain. You have to guess the rules on pronounciation. Your video is so helpful Monika!

[@liubomyr-peteliuk]

Sometimes I think that Polish is advanced Ukrainian, or Ukrainian is simplyfied Polish😅. Also, I am from Halychyna (Precarpathian part) and our dielect is closure to Polish, for example Elephant - in Polish it is Słoń, in Ukrainian it is Slon, and in Precarpathian dialect it is Sloń (we don't use the "Ł ł" sound). Thank you for supporting us. You are best of the best!

This is causing a lot of crossing out in my notebook😂 (I messed up lol)
