Polish is classified among the difficult languages for English and French speakers (level 4 out of 5 at the Foreign Service Institute). The 7 cases, 3 grammatical genders and the pronunciation of consonant clusters (szcz, chrz, dż) are the main obstacles. But several factors make learning easier: the Latin alphabet, consistent pronunciation (each letter has a fixed sound), and the absence of tones. With a progressive method, most of our students reach basic conversation in 6–9 months.

Will Polish help me learn other Slavic languages?

Yes, it's one of the best Slavic linguistic investments. Polish gives you a solid foundation for understanding Czech and Slovak (70% mutual intelligibility), Ukrainian and Belarusian (50–60%), and to a lesser extent Russian (40%). The Slavic structure of cases and verbal aspects is learned once, then transfers. Advanced Polish speakers can often read texts in other Slavic languages.

Is there a large Polish community in the West?

The Polish diaspora is huge. In the UK, there are around 700,000 Polish speakers, making Polish one of the most spoken languages in the country after English. In the US, the Polish-American community numbers around 10 million. In France, historical communities thrive in the North (mines), Paris and major cities. In total, the global Polish diaspora is one of the largest in the world (20 million people). Learning Polish to reconnect with your roots is one of our students' main motivations, and our teachers fully understand that dimension.

Is business Polish different from everyday Polish?

Professional Polish uses more formal vocabulary and specific politeness formulas. The formal address (the 'Pan/Pani' + 3rd person form) is mandatory in Polish professional contexts, unlike the widespread use of first names in English-speaking business culture. At Targumi, we teach language registers from the intermediate level: knowing when to use Pan/Pani and how to write a polite professional email is a key skill.

How do you correctly pronounce Polish ł, ą, ę?

The Polish 'ł' is pronounced like an English 'w' (not like an 'l'). The 'ą' is a nasal vowel close to the French 'on' in 'bon', or the English 'on' in a heavily nasalized pronunciation. The 'ę' is close to a nasalized 'en'. These sounds seem confusing in writing but our teachers introduce them from the very first lesson with repetition exercises and audio recordings, and French-speaking students actually have an advantage with nasal vowels thanks to French.
