Looking at these words and names I really think some silent letters would actually help out

You actually mash the letters together into a sound. So Cz is pronounced like a c and z at the same time.

If the name was real, that is.

I think you need to Czech next door to Poland to find a Cz sound.

Hmm fair.
I was conflating sz with cz

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Polish just uses -z like how English uses -h in digraphs, so sz is sh, cz is ch

Now do rz, ż, ź, dz, dż and dź!

That doesn't really help 😆
