How Do You Spell PAWLOWSKI?

Pronunciation: [pɔːlˈə͡ʊskɪ] (IPA)

Pawlowski is a Polish surname that can be difficult to properly spell in English due to the use of the letter "w" as a vowel. The correct spelling is "PAH-lof-skee" (pɑːˈlɒfski), with the "w" sound not pronounced like a typical English "w". The "ł" is also unique to the Polish language and is pronounced as a soft "w" or "l", similar to the "ll" in "million". Therefore, when spelling Pawlowski, it is important to remember the correct pronunciation of the Polish language.
