      @@formbi That is a bit more nuanced : )
      The Poles worked out the logic, which was the same throughout the war. But Enigma being a polialfabetical cypher with keys changed daily. Having the logic (as in, knowing that it is a polialphabetical cypher with mechanism of double rotors to create the keys, and keys changing daily) and the algorythm of attack on the daily key based in statistics as it relates to languages, you had to use a set of coded messages sent on a given day to use the said algorythms to guess the day's key. And while sometimes Nazis got lazy and would transmit the new keys for the day in a way that made it possible to get them, if you weren't lucky enough to get that message, you had to sacrifice a considerable amount of time and manpower to crack the day's key manually.
      Turing was the one who came up with the idea to automatize the cracking algorythms by building the Bombe. It essentially took the logic the Poles cracked and used it in an automated manner on the messages the Allies had already gotten for the day, allowing to crack the day's key earlier, and therefore to know enemy's plans earlier, which is crucial in any military conflict.
      So:
      Poles > cracked enigma's logic and created the algorithm to break daily keys
      Turing > automatised these algorythms to be able to use them to decode daily messages faster.
      That said, it is important to note both Turing and the Poles work were crucial in decoding enemy messages. Without Turing's Bombe key cracking would take considerably longer each day, and in battle these hours matter. On the other hand without Pole's method Turing would have nothing to automate.

    As a Pole, I confirm that the video is accurate ^^ and goodnight in Polish is "dobranoc" ;)
    The thing that confused you about L being read as English W - it wasn't L, it was Ł, so a Ł is written as an L with a dash through it and it's a separate letter from L.
    Handwritten small Ł can be confused with a small T if a person has too messy handwriting, because the dash in handwritten small Ł can be added to small L in 3 ways: a diagonal line through the middle, a horizontal straight line at the top or horizontal wavy line at the top. In print it's always a diagonal line through the middle.
    The complete Polish alphabet has 32 letters:

The only exception are foreign words, like tarzan, auto etc. But the big question is "why do you want to do that"? There is absolutely no reason to learn polish. ;)

      You use you vocal cords while pronouncing "W"; Whereas while pronouncing "S" you don't. Switching in-between using your vocal cords or not is really jarring, so we've come up with something called "ubezdźwięcznienie". It's a phenomenon that happens whenever one of these consonants: W, Z, G, B, D, DZ, DŹ, DŻ are before the unvoiced consonants like S, P, F, SZ, Ć and so or if they happen to be at the end of a word.

      Try pronouncing "wrotki", then. It is not about consonants as such, but whether they are "voiced" or "voiceless". This is the difference between w and f - the former is voiced (more vibration in the throat), then latter voiceless. Paired with a voiceless consonant, w might lose its "voiced" quality, too, thus turning into f. That's the whole secret.

    11:15 - The use of letters and sounds “ch / h”, “u / rz”, “u / ó” is the result of an ancient version of the language, when the distinction when spoken language was more important than writing one before it became common. So the creators of the alphabet most likely had to distinguish it somehow. Today no one hears this, only children “suffer in school” when writing language tests. 🙂

    I am Polish native speaker and I've also graduated 5 years higher education of History. We had a subject which was named "paleography" and in general this was about decoding the old scripts: IX - XVIII Century written in Polish or Polish-Latin mix. I can say the old Polish is a fucking nuts! I can barely understand this (not mention about decoding) It was the only one time when I've really struggled with passing an exams. Honestly this was a nightmare. But the I've also discovered, the letters Ó and U were different because they used to sound completely different in pronunciation. I Am fluent in English (I live in UK) and I can simply say the English is a lot easier and comfortable to daily use, but the Polish from the other site let me to elevate my expression to a much higher level of detail.

    The differentiation between U and Ó is actually valid, because due to inflection Ó can shift into O, while U cannot. Similar situation with RZ (which can shift into R) and Ż (which can shift into G), and also with H and CH. It's grammar mostly for the present day, but historically there were differences in pronunciation.

    Try saying some letter pairs like B/P, G/K, Z/S while touching your throat. You'll notice that they're basically the same, but one of the letters in a pair makes your throat vibrate. Those are voiced consonants, and the non-vibrating ones are voiceless.
    In Polish, following some rules, but generally at the end of the word or when in a group with voiceless consonants, voiced consonants can become voiceless, to make saying it easier. So:
    B -> P
    D -> T
    DZ -> C
    DŹ -> Ć
    DŹ -> CZ
    W -> F
    G -> K
    Z -> S
    Ź -> Ś

      Polish is insanely inflected language. Half of words in Polish have variants.

This inflection of almost everything is typical for pre-Indo-European language and just disappeared or has been reduced in western European languages.
      Polish grammar is somewhat similar to Latin grammar. With one caveat: Latin grammar is easy.

BUT if W is before a voiceless consonant like S P T K C or others (even if we talk about W being a different word like "W sumie" - "in fact"), it can sound like F because it is much easier for tongue to create two voiceless sounds than one voiced and one voiceless.

    "Bear with me" means stay with me, but bear is an animal? Btw., in Polish we have some english sentences jokes that are translated literaly, ex: "Z góry dziękuję" → "Thank you from the mountain" → where "z" is from, "góra" means "mountains" but it all means sth. like "thank you in advace" 🙂 [btw. góra (singular), góry (plural), but "z góry" → from (one) mountain or from above, but "z gór" - from mountains, but NOT from aboves - no plural]. I've heard that it takes about 16 years for a Pole to achieve language proficiency, which is one of the longest results. Nowadays, however, it's probably unattainable (given that children spend their time on YT instead of reading books).

      No, you are not 100% right, like word "jabłko" is read as "*japko", "chleb" is read as "*chlep". Of course, if one pronounces "jabłko" and "chleb" - he will be considered as over-correct, but beautiful. Because of phonetic convenience sometimes consonants become sound-less in pronounciation.
      Or the word "przejażdżka" is read as "*pszejaszczka". And many, many more.

      @@pokrec You're partially correct, but we're delving into some complex phonetic territory. In English, "flag" and "flack" have distinct meanings, whereas in Polish, "czołg" and "czołk" are synonymous. Additionally, the first pronunciation might sound slightly artificial, but it's still comprehensible and surprisingly clear. This is due to a linguistic phenomenon known as "devoicing," which occurs naturally as a simplification of articulation. For example, "przekonam" is pronounced as "pszekonam," which is normal. I don't know Italian, Russian or Japanese though - it is obvious, that if you try to pronounce "prz" in Polish it will always be "psz".

  • @szeptaczsprezarek
    @szeptaczsprezarek Місяць тому

    8:05 it's called "final obstruent devoicing" (according to wiki). Or as we call it: "ubezdźwięcznienie wewnętrznowyrazowe". This is when certain written letter may transform into its softer counterpart when speaking. Happens usually when there are multiple consonants in a row. *W*szyscy turns into *F*szyscy, K*rz*ysztof (a name) turns into K*sz*ysztof.
    However learning about this in-depth is usually always reserved for advanced grammar.
