Calling the Polish ladies here - Polish pronunciations?

Yeah, it's driving me crazy. How do you properly pronounce Comexim? Ewa Michalak? Biustonosz? I read the words all the time and I'm sure my brain says them 100% wrong. And I'm that special kind of strange person that spends far too much time pondering this.

Can you write it out in kindergarten ways? For example, my first name is Laura pronounced LORE-ah. So Comexim is... ? Mentally I read it like "come-EX-im." Don't fall off the couch laughing at me, please...

  • That's how I've been pronouncing "Comexim" too, but I have no idea if it's right.

    I know someone with the last name Michalak, and they pronounce it "Mih-HA-lick." Not sure if that's the proper Polish pronunciation or just an Americanized one, though. And Polish W's are pronounced like our V's, at least according to my ten-second Google research. :P http://www.vbvm.org/polish/alphabet.html

  • So... eee-vah? My brain reads her name as eee-wah (haha, eewok anyone?) my-KAL-ack but that's gotta be all sorts of wrong too.

    eee-vah is pretty.
