[Facts] Re: How do you pronounce Przemysł? [nt.]
in reply to a message by Shaymin
Shaymin,
I believe you may be familiar with the Polish language. It's my first language and I have to disagree about what you called the last L. It's not an L, it's a Ł which is pronounced like an English W.
My approximation of the pronunciation would be psheh-MIH-sw (with the last syllable being an s like in hiss going into a w as if it were the first letter of a word; the Polish rz in this name is impossible to really approximate in English).

Thanks Kirke. I don't remember the name for it so I didn't know what else to call it.
Correction
I should have written that as 2 syllables. PSHEH-mihsw.
