THE POLISH LANGUAGE
Like Czech, Slovak, Russian, and a host of others, Polish is a Slavic tongue. If you travel throughout Central and Eastern Europe you will notice many similarities between the Slavic
languages, though they are not necessarily mutually comprehensible. All of the Slavic languages are difficult because of their inherent grammatical complexities. Pronunciation is no simple task either. You will notice lots of unusual punctuation symbols, and a high ratio of consonants to vowels. On the good side, Polish is completely phonetic, and once you've mastered the sound combinations, you're well on your way.Useful Phrases
