What to listen for in Polish
Polish contrasts consonants that can initially sound similar to English speakers. Start by hearing the difference, then practise the sound inside a complete phrase. The sentence library covers A1 to C2.
Consonant clusters
Polish permits long groups of consonants, including at the beginning of words. Sentence practice helps you keep the sounds together without adding an extra vowel.
Sibilant contrasts
Several Polish sounds can seem very close to a learner. Repeated listening and speaking makes those contrasts easier to notice and reproduce.
Stress in context
Most Polish words stress the second-to-last syllable, but natural sentence rhythm still has to be heard and practised as a whole.
