Pronunciation of Wlodarski in Southern Pines, NC, USA

The 'W' is pronounced like the english 'V'. The 'L' transcribed in English as 'L' is a separate letter in the Polish language that exists with a diacritical mark over it but which is lost when transcribe into English. That letter is pronounced as the 'L' but without the tongue touching the palate. This produces as distinct sound that approximates the 'W'. As the 'W' sound takes less effort to pronounce, the letter is therefore more often now pronounced like the English 'W'. The 'O' is short as in 'organ'. The 'D' is a hard sound as in 'dictionary'. The 'A' is short as in 'car'. The 'R' is pronounced with a short slur. The 'ski' is pronounced as in the English word 'ski'. The accent is on the second syllable.
