I was clicking through random names and there were several Polish ones with "h" in them and I only now noticed that their pronunciation is represented by "kh" and I was so surprised because it is common knowledge that Polish used to have a voiced "h" but not anymore, so I thought this can't be right! And that's how I learnt that the English "h" is a whole completely different thing than either voiced or unvoiced Polish "h". I feel deeply betrayed by every English teacher I've had in the 20+ years I've been learning the language! XD

ETA Sorry for being off topic but this revelation rocked my world and it's all thanks to this update.
