Summary/Abstract: This paper tackles the issue of incorrect abbreviating original words in the Polish language used by the most prominent Polish political figures of the recent years. Orthophony as such is extremely frequently violated in everyday language. The language of Polish broadcast media, contrary to what it was like a few decades ago, seems to follow the trends observed in the speech of ordinary citizens of the country. Moreover, official speeches delivered by major politicians appear to reflect the nonchalance of average speakers. In this article a preliminary analysis of the issue of language decadence at the heights of power is proposed.
