      It’s not a real name and it is hard to pronounce even for a Pole.

        Czywinostawcz would be pronounceable, but the j fucks it up.

      “cz” marks the same sound as the English “ch”. “j” marks the same as “y” in “yes”. Otherwise you read it letter by letter, a bit as if it was Spanish.

      So… Is Ch’yvinos’tavch legible enough? :) Although, the pronounciation of the j would be so weak that you could perhaps skip it. It does alter the sound a bit, but doesn’t really sound as an independent sound in this word. So, also Ch’vinos’tavch could maybe be a valid transcription? And of course real Polish language does not have the combination czj anyway :)

        It might be trying to spell Czy wino stawić?

        We don’t do silent letters. Life is difficult enough.

          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

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

      I can try my best until an actual Pole drops by… I’m guessing something like “Chinostas Chabras” (I apologize I’m advance for how wrong I probably am, I’m just applying what I learned from how to pronounce other polish names but I don’t speak the language whatsoever).

        It’s not Polish, just letters mashed in. You can tell by how utterly unpronounceable that made up word is.

        You can’t have j (pronounced as y in yoga) letter after cz (pronounced like ch in check), it would evolve into i (pronounced like e in e).
