Extract

Polish originates from the group of the Slavonic languages, such as Croatian, Czech and Russian.
Our mother tongue is said to be one of the most difficult languages in the world. Its grammar, spelling and pronunciation creates a lot of problems not only to the foreigners, but also to the Poles. It has a rich, growing vocabulary. On the other hand it hasn't got enough words connected with technology, business and science. Because Poland doesn't keep up with changes in many disciplines, Polish tends to borrow a lot of vocabulary from other languages.
