Questions on pronunciation! "k","p", "rz"Hi,I'm a beginner having been studying Polish for only 1 week.
Here are my questions on Polish Pronunciation:
1. Are "k","p" and "t" pronounced as those in German(aspirated) or in French(unaspirated)? For eg. in "tak","pani","jestem". I've listened to the songs and some teaching materials and I am confused because some people pronouce these letters with aspiration while some do not.
2. When is "rz" pronouce separately? It's written in the text book that the pronunciation of "rz" is like "j" in French. But when I saw the film "katyn", I heard the name "Jerzy" was pronounced as /jerzi/ and "rz" was pronouced separately. So is there some regularity?
3.How to pronouce "budzić" ? I think "dz" should be softened.But when I listen to the song "budzić Świat" of Dna i Gal, I find they pronouce "dz" as /dz/ without softening it. So is it accent?
Dziękuję!
