“Is it worth learning Polish?” Canadian students’ reflections on the Polish language

Summary/Abstract: This paper touches upon the reflections on Polish as expressed by Canadian students learning the language in the university setting. The opinions excerpted from the students’ essays regard the power and prestige of as well as stereotypes about the language. They differ by the origin of the respondents: Polish, Slavic (non-Polish) and foreign. The findings may constitute implications for building strategies for the promotion of Polish abroad and projections of the ethnolinguistic vitality of Polish in Canada.
