Language / Polish Language Pronunciation - Example Words and Phrases [178]
Merged: A bit of pronunciation help please.....Motylku/Daj Mi Buzi
Hello. My Polish is awful (let alone my English - thank you crappy American schools). However, growing up with Polish grandparents, I was used to the terms of "Misiu" and the like. I was wondering, could anyone make sure these translations are correct for me and tell me how to pronounce them phonetically (I want to make sure I get them right!)
Examples -
Misiu - Teddybear (Me-Shoe)
Jestes piekna - You're beautiful (Yes-tes Pee-ek-na)
What I would like -
Motylku - Butterfly
Daj Mi Buzi - Give me a kiss (Daj mi buji?)
Nigdy nie widzałem tackich pięknych oczy - I have never seen such beautiful eyes
chodź do łóżka - Come to bed

Merged: Raczkowski name - please help me with pronunciation!
Could someone please phonetically spell out for me both how to (correctly, the true Polish way) my family name, Raczkowski? And also "Szczescie jest pomiedzy ustami i brzegiem kielicha", which I was led to believe means "Happiness is between the lips and the rim of the glass"?
Thanks so much!

Language / Speaking Polish to my grandparents [4]
My grandparents have always spoken Polish, they immigrated when they were very young into the US. I was just wondering what sorts of things I could maybe say to them, simple things like "Thank you for the wonderful meal" and such...thanks guys!
