How do you say uncle is polish?

The Polish word for "uncle" depends on whether you are referring to your father's brother or your mother's brother.

* Wujek (pronounced "voo-yek") is used for your father's brother (the equivalent of "uncle" in English).

* Stryj (pronounced "stree-ee") is used for your mother's brother.

So, you can say:

* "Mój wujek jest Polakiem." (My uncle is Polish.) - if your uncle is your father's brother.

* "Mój stryj jest Polakiem." (My uncle is Polish.) - if your uncle is your mother's brother.
