Lol I’m learning polish now and this is so funny to me
He shouldn’t be smiling.
Is that name common in poland?
How to pronounce that name?
This is going to sound weird, but I can identify someone who is polish just by how they speak English… Like there’s a very distinct cadence and pronunciation, I spot a Polak via telephone whatever 🙏
That’s why I changed my first and last name when I became U.S citizen.
“Oh come, one friend. In Poland we say ‘kjeevy las’ (curved forest) and our ruling party and Jarosław kacheenski from law and justice (pis) said that from now on we have to pronounce CeDe proyekt, as such they did in ZSRR (soviet union). Play Witcher ;;;;)))). Wingeded husars”
“How did you know I’m polish?”
Totally not Szczęsny Wojciech
My Italian bro keeps telling me, Polish language is like rolling your head on the keyboard.
Could someone redo the meme with Grzegorz Brzęczyszczykiewicz
How could you tell? Cause you are wearing white socks with sandals and its 35C outside 🥳
If i start walking now , I’ll reach Warsaw before I finish pronouncing that name
I think he’s Hungarian.
My first name have 8 letters, my surname have 13 letters (including “ę”). I can imagine people struggling to pronounce it.
In Portuguese its impossible to write any word with so much consonants, so for me its a bit hard to understand how can that be a word xD

Well, tip for english speakers: if you see “sz” or “cz” in Polish for you this will sound like “sh” and “ch” also “w” will sound like English “v” .
Here are some other sounds tips for English speakers to read Polish:
ż = rz – mea(sur)e
u = ó – m(o)ve
h = ch – (h)arbour
ć ~ ci – (ch)eek
ń ~ ni – o(ni)on
ś ~ si – (sh)eep
ź ~ zi – a(z)ure
dź ~ d zi – (d)uke
dż ~ d rz – (j)et
ą ~ on\om\oł – [french] b(on)jour
ę ~ em\en – s(e)nse
dz – goo(ds)
cz – (ch)eat
sz – (sh)eed
Too many vowels, can’t be real /s
I have the most generic Polish last name and while most people can ascertain that I’m Polish, I’m always surprised by the people who don’t.
Why is he smiling tho
Meanwhile me, a Pole, with the most simple name in the world.
Me, a Pole with an American name being also half-spanish and having a sister from Austria…
He also kept asking people how they knew his name…
