What does a Polish accent sound like?

A Polish accent, when speaking English, has unique and recognizable characteristics. A Polish speaker might pronounce “w” as “v” because the language has no “w” sound. “The,” which is a sound common in English, is also challenging and is often pronounced as a “d” or “t” sound. The language has a distinctive rhythmic pattern, typically syllable-timed, so each syllable takes up roughly the same amount of time, leading to the ‘staccato’ effect when a native Polish speaker converses in English.
