Talk:Polish alphabet

message: I think it should be stated that the replacement of these letters in loan words is true in only a few of them and generally used only (and still not always) in official sources. Some words are used with no replacement - like "xero" or "taxi" or "express". Especially "taxi" is important, as this is the only form used officially to distinguish taxis, while some unofficial con-artists write "taksi" on their unofficial cabs, yet if someone reads this article before coming to Warsaw of Cracow he might be coned by them!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.253.105.52 (talk) 12:31, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

message: Seeing as how this is an English language article, the Polish letters should have a chart of comparisons, such as the Romanian Alphabet Tev 01:43, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

message: Would anyone object if i changed the 70 short lines of table code in the article to one of the compact versions below? And which would you prefer, as an editor? -- Jokes Free4Me 11:28, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This is much better. However, I don't think the heading is necessary. I like the second line better than the third because of the alignment. Appleseed (Talk) 21:29, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Jokes, I've implemented your proposed change. Perhaps you'd be interested in cleaning up the second table too? Appleseed (Talk) 21:35, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

message: How the Polish sorting is done? Are ą, ć, ę, ł, ń, ś, ź and ż separate letters or are they sorted with non-diacritic versions of the same letters? --Mikko Paananen (talk) 20:32, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: They are treated as separate letters, coming in the alphabet after their diacritic-less equivalents (so ą between a and b, etc.) After z come ź and then ż.--Kotniski (talk) 20:56, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

message: please consider changing the sound-example (nasal o as French bon) of the letter ą as it is in a foreign language and does not fit perfectly to be honest.
a way better example is given by owl.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.203.142.146 (talk) 09:48, 29 July 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: It is amazing: Haven't read this objection I just changed examples to French "bon" for ą and French "cinq" for ę as prefect phonetic representation: IPA symbol ɔ̃ for both ą and "bon" and IPA symbol ɛ̃ for both ę and cinq..  English word "owl" has very different phonetic representation aʊl. If anybody can provide English words including phonemes ɔ̃ or ɛ̃ it would be welcome.

thread_title:  Merge proposal 

message: I would like to add 2 chapters: 1. Letters Frequency and  2. Alphabet History, both with referencing to external sources. I would also propose to remove the chapter Polish spelling alphabet as not relevant for English speaking readers and as not including all Polish letters. JacekVR (talk) 19:53, 25 December 2022 (UTC)
