Learn Polish



There is a lot of opportunity if you want to learn Polish. Poland is a country with a large population and a growing economy and there is a sizeable number of Polish-speaking people in the US and pockets in Europe.

Polish is a rich and interesting language. Like its cousin Slavic languages Russian, Ukrainian, Czech, Slovenian and others, Polish has a complex grammar. There are also some interesting consonant clusters and nasalized sounds. Luckily, Polish uses the Roman alphabet, so you don't have to worry about fumbling around with a new alphabet.

Unfortunately, the published language learning methods for Polish are not as abundant or as complete as with some other languages. Here are some of the best resources to begin your quest to learn Polish.

Internet/Free Skwierzyna.net This site has a basic pronunciation guide and some free downloadable PDFs for grammar and basic phrases to get you started learning Polish.

Internet/Free ELEaston.com This is a great site for finding resources to help you learn Polish. Lots of links for grammar, news, audio, reading materials etc.

Internet/Free icanlearnenglish.com This is a site for Polish speakers learning English, but the site also has instructions in English and lots of MP3 audio of basic words and phrases. There is also a podcast.
