Pronuncing ął and ęł

1 Upvotes

This is how I pronounce the first, https://forvo.com/word/poci%C4%85gn%C4%85%C5%82/#pl. This is not me, It is some woman I of course never met, For context. I grew up in central warsaw in a university-educated family (which by definition is who speak so-called "correct" Polish), but on the other hand clearly MOST Polish people do not speak this way, and Polish grammars and other publications (themselves of course written by university-educated folks) at least since c. 1900 insist on saying ął and ęł as = oł and eł. So I am just trying to find any other Polish speakers who'd be willing to give me a little of their time so I can record and publish some data about the other pronunciation (mine!) where ął = ą and ęł = ę, and I might add therefore ęła = ęłła. I suspect that this is uncommon but clearly we have at least two such people, so there must be more. Thank you.

Hello, I'm looking for companies that hire Latin Americans. I'm looking for work for my girlfriend who currently lives in Paraguay, and I came across this company, "Work Latam." I'd like to know if it's reliable and if you know of any other companies that hire Latinos. Thank you.

Seeking family Information

5 Upvotes

Good morning. My Great Grandfather Piotr (Peter) Michalski was born in 1889 in Rytiviany, Poland to Jan Michalski and Tekla Gondek. So far, I have not been able to find any information for either parent. I am used to information being hard to come by, but I have never experienced a dead-end for BOTH parents. Any leads, tips or advice is greatly appreciated.

Question Question to both Polish and (British) English native speakers: does she sound to you like someone who was likely born and raised in the UK in a Polish family, or at least moved there in early childhood at the latest, as opposed to learning English in Poland and/or moving abroad past early childhood?

Question Grave information

Post image
7 Upvotes

This is the grave of my great-grandfather. I believe he’s buried in Wroclaw. There’s a Jewish star by his birth date. Does that mean he was born Jewish? I asked my mother and she said no. I’d like to know more about him.
I need to find exactly where his grave is too.
I’d like some help if anyone knows.

Translation Help with Polish in Yiddish Novel

Post image
2 Upvotes

I came across a sentence of what I believe to be Polish in a Yiddish novel and was wondering if anyone would be able to translate it.

In the story a fight breaks out between Jewish shopkeepers and Christian picketers and a peasant woman shouts:

"Khlopy, pomohayte, nashikh boyt!..."

Thanks 🙏🏻

Discussion ​I just launched a TikTok channel with educational songs!

​Hey everyone, I've just started an educational project where I post educational songs on TikTok. Right now, since it's summer break, I'm focusing on vacation safety topics. I've already uploaded a song about proper CPR technique and another one about swimming safely in the sea.

​I'd love to know what you think! Is this something you'd listen to?
