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.

[@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.

[@deepakshah490]

I was really in search of such video on pronunciation. Great.. Madam. Thank you veryyyy... Much....

[@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!

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.

Thanks very much😁

[@aliosman8927]

Awesome ❤️

[@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.

[@shenoudayassa6076]

You are amazing teacher and you hope the best for you

[@robertvideochannel]

sound is so unversal vs. writing. Amazing idea! , Eine sehr gute Idee. 🌍🌎🌏👂🦻

[@xavier6158]

Very beautiful

[@ChinoBatchatero]

You truly are one of a kind. I have confidence to learn Polish. I used to try but the sounds destroyed me. I speak Russian so I wanted to learn all the Slavic Languages. Thank you for your clear explanation. You teach Polish very well to foreigners like myself.

[@skhdelwar3825]

Thanks good tech

[@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 😢

[@eddysanta1213]

Nice video..

[@ACzechManGoingHisOwnWay]

OK, now I begin to understand, why to me as a Czech person, it is way easier to read Polish than it is to hear it spoken. Czech keeps distinct spellings as well as pronunciations for H and CH, U and Ó, RZ and Ź etc. While in spoken Polish, there seems to be no difference, making mapping back to archaic, similar or equivalent Czech words very hard or ambiguous. Very nice video.

[@Haehaehg]

dz : /dʒ/ me: easy dź : /dʒi/ me: got it. next dż : /d/ me: wtf?!?!?!?

[@PiotrPilinko]

It is: /d͡ʐ/ voiced retroflex affricate.

[@FakeSeek3490]

im trying to larn to dancing polish cow lyrics, this is a lifesaver

[@rick_terscale1111]

6:28 - something I've discovered about dzi, from what I'm hearing. While in most cases dzi sounds like 'gee" as Monika says, if dzi goes before 'e' as in tydzień then it sounds more like "jeh" (as in jeremiah). And if it goes before ę it sounds more like "gen". dzie > Tydzień = tuh-JEH-nyah .. or tuh-JENyah dzię > Dziękuję = GEN-ku-yeh So the "ee" sound appears to be dropped.

[@MewMew811]

would be nice to know what nasal sound is and actually how to make it

[@ismayilhuseynov2396]

Im learning polish from your videos but this lesson sooo hard for me.

[@matildawolfram4687]

The student needs to develop his or her own individual learning system adapted to your daily routine, area of activity, rhythm of life, interests, etc. First of all, you need to understand what problems are preventing you from learning a foreign language effectively. There is a lot of good material for learning a language on the Internet, but many people don't know how to use it as effectively as possible. However, the practice of Yuriy Ivantsiv "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign language" will help you structure and organize your individual language learning process, allow you to find a method of language learning that will be interesting and unencumbered. Also, subscribe to this channel, because here the author puts very useful videos on learning a language! Thank the author of the channel for the great work in the creation of training videos!
