ą, ć, ę, ł, ń, ó, ś, ź, ż — when to use each letter with examples.
Ą, Ę (ogonek — nasal vowels)
ą /ɔ̃/ sounds like French 'on': mąka, ząb. ę /ɛ̃/ sounds like French 'in': ręka, węzeł. Type a= or e= in Quick Compose, or ` + a/e in TypeIt.
Ć, Ń, Ś, Ź (acute — palatalized)
Soft consonants: ć /tɕ/ (być), ń /ɲ/ (koń), ś /ɕ/ (miś), ź /ʑ/ (źródło). Type c=, n=, s=, z= in Quick Compose or ' + letter in TypeIt.
Ł (stroke — /w/ sound)
Pronounced like English 'w': łódź, piłka, młody. Type l= in Quick Compose or / + l in TypeIt.
Ó (acute — /u/ sound)
Same pronunciation as u: góra = gura, ból = bul. Type o= in Quick Compose or ' + o in TypeIt.
Ż (overdot — hard retroflex /ʐ/)
Same sound as 'rz': żaba, nóż, jeżyk. Type z== in Quick Compose (double equals). Distinct from ź (soft, z-acute).

Practical tips for Polish input — layouts, accents, and common questions answered below.
A Polish keyboard (Polska Klawiatura) lets you type the 9 special Polish letters — ą, ć, ę, ł, ń, ó, ś, ź, ż — essential for correct spelling. KeyLingo combines typing, diacritic checking, and typography tools in one private workspace.
Open KeyLingo Polish Keyboard and use Easy Accents: Quick Compose (a= → ą, l= → ł, z== → ż) or TypeIt dead keys. Switch to Virtual Keyboard for Programmers (AltGr) or Standard 214 layout.
Polish has 31 letters: the 26 Latin letters minus Q, V, X (used only in loans) plus 9 special letters with diacritics. These are distinct alphabet letters — not optional accents. Missing them changes meaning (los vs łoś).
Polish uses four diacritic types: ogonek (ą, ę) for nasal vowels, acute accent (ć, ń, ó, ś, ź) for palatalized consonants and the u-sound vowel, stroke (ł) for the w-sound, and overdot (ż) for voiced retroflex. Each marks a completely different phoneme.
Polish (Programmers) keeps US QWERTY punctuation positions — diacritics via AltGr+letter (A=ą, E=ę, L=ł, etc.). Recommended for diaspora and coders. Polish (214) swaps Y/Z and places dedicated ą/ć/ę/ł/ń/ó/ś/ź/ż keys on the right side.
Quick Compose: a= ą, c= ć, e= ę, l= ł, n= ń, o= ó, s= ś, z= ź, z== ż. TypeIt: ` + a/e → ą/ę, ' + c/n/o/s/z → ć/ń/ó/ś/ź, / + l → ł. Use the accent strip for one-click insertion.
All typing and diacritic checking run locally in your browser. KeyLingo never uploads your Polish text to a server — unlike server-side AI correctors.
Polish keyboard, input methods, and privacy — answered clearly.
Use Easy Accents Quick Compose: a= for ą, e= for ę. Or TypeIt mode: ` + a → ą, ` + e → ę. On Windows, install Polish (Programmers) for AltGr+A and AltGr+E.
Quick Compose: l= → ł, c= → ć, n= → ń, o= → ó, s= → ś. TypeIt: / + l → ł, ' + c/n/o/s → ć/ń/ó/ś.
ź (z-acute) = soft voiced alveolo-palatal /ʑ/. ż (z-dot) = hard voiced retroflex /ʐ/ (same as rz). Compose: z= → ź, z== → ż.
The diacritic hint bar uses a local dictionary. After typing lodz, apply the hint — no server calls. Homographs like los/łoś need your judgment.
Programmers keeps US punctuation positions (ideal for coding and diaspora). Standard 214 has dedicated diacritic keys and swaps Y/Z like German QWERTZ.

Yes. Easy Accents is the default on mobile. Use the accent dock or virtual keyboard sheet. Disable OS autocorrect if = shortcuts conflict.
Stylish text (coming soon) will use Unicode decorative fonts. Note that ą/ł/ż stay plain in most Unicode font styles since they only transform A–Z, a–z, 0–9. @handles remain ASCII-only.
