Summary/Abstract: The aim of the paper is to show that traditional phonetic and phonological transcription of Polish texts remains under the influence of the system of writing. It uses special symbols for sounds or phonemes but keeps the orthographic segmentation into words and does not take into consideration the stress (which sometimes differentiates the meaning). The transcription of a Polish text with marked stressed syllables and without division into orthographic words would be much more empirically adequate and didactically useful.
