The Polish Language
Polish is the official language of Poland and is spoken by most of the 38 million inhabitants of Poland (census 2002). Native speakers of Polish can also be found in Western Belarus, Ukraine and Eastern Lithuania. Because of emigration from Poland in various periods, millions of Polish-speakers can also be found in countries such as Ireland, Australia, Israel, Brazil, Canada, the United Kingdom, United States, etc. The estimated number of Poles who live beyond the borders of Poland is 10 million; with about 50 million people worldwide naming Polish as their mother tongue.
Like Czech and Slovak,Polish is part of the West-Slavic group of the Indo-European languages. It came from the Proto-Slavic language which was used as the mother tongue of all past Slavic tribes. The Polish language has developed so much throughout history that the texts written in the Middle Ages are difficult to understand for today’s Poles and need to be read with a dictionary of archaisms.
While most Poles speak standard Polish, there are several dialects within the Polish language. These are easily understandable to native Polish speakers as they are based mostly on regional pronunciation and vocabulary changes. Different dialects within Polish include Silesia and Podale (highlander’s dialect). Kashubian is also spoken – this is a separate language used by the Polish living west of Gdansk near the Baltic Sea. It is quite rare, with between 100,000 and 200,000 speakers and is gradually becoming extinct.
Polish can be very difficult for foreigners to learn due to its system of grammatical gender. Polish uses three genders – masculine, feminine and neuter – and is also broken down into animate and inanimate. It shares some Latin grammar and vocabulary and has three genders – masculine, feminine and neuter. Polish also uses the Latin alphabet and excludes the letters ‘q’, ‘v’ and ‘x’ except for in foreign words.
