Better avoid breaking table feet

Stół z powyłamywanymi nogami, a table with broken feetW czasie suszy szosa sucha, during drought the road is drySzedł Sasza suchą szosą w czasie suszy, Sasha was walking a dry road during droughtKról Karol kupió królowej Karolinie korale koloru koralowego, King Charles bought red corals for the Queen Karolina (in Polish it is an alliteration). Extremely difficult to pronounce, not only for foreigners. By the way, one of the most popular Polish radio reporters is called Strzyczkowski. :)

A table with broken feet kind of easy for me to say it now, in any case i can say it now.

The red coral twister is one I remember-but without the King and Queen.

Pocztmistrz z Tczewa = the head postman from Tczew. It's also hard for Poles.

W Szczebrzeszynie chrząszcz brzmi w trzcinie i Szczebrzeszyn z tego słynie. In Szczebrzeszyn a beetle buzzes in the reed, for which Szczebrzeszyn is famous. When you pronounce it, it seems to have no vowels.
