The Polish language is widely considered to be one of the most difficult to learn in terms of spelling. Numerous spelling rules, exceptions to them, complicated punctuation and the phenomenon of homophony (words that sound the same but spelled differently, e.g. "sea" and "may") make mistakes happen even to people with higher education. Additionally, the development of Internet communication and haste encourage simplification, which weakens our linguistic vigilance. Making mistakes in official, professional or academic texts has a negative impact on our image, so it is worth constantly verifying the correctness of the words.
Our large, interactive online correctness and spelling dictionary is a free tool that allows you to check the correct spelling of difficult words in a fraction of a second, learn the rules of Polish spelling and analyze practical examples in sentences.
The most common language mistakes of Poles – why do we make them?
Spelling and grammatical errors can be divided into several main categories. The most common ones include:
- Combined and separated spellings:This is the absolute leader in error statistics. Due to rapid pronunciation, prepositional phrases or particles merge into one word. For example, we write incorrectly "certainly" (correctly:definitely) or "at all" (correctly:at all) and "back" (correctly:back).
- Difficulties with verb endings:Infinitive forms are very often confused. The incorrect form of "to take" as "to take" results from an incorrect analogy to verbs such as "to carry" or "to weave".
- Phonetic simplifications:In everyday speech we often simplify consonant groups, which translates into writing. A classic example is the spelling "włańczać" instead of the correct formproper(derived from the word "Łączeń", not "lancze").
