ok ok that powył one is tricksy (am going to be waking up in the night practising it - have just done it about 100 times, but the usual slowly-slowly-quicker-quick method doesn't seem to be working ; )

try
red lorry yellow lorry
very quickly a lot of times

that's why the Japanese don't bother with r/l distinction :)
they have only one sound for it (r, I think)

red rorry, yerrow rorry

Many of my fellow learners of Polish shed 'tears' over writing/pronouncing 'łzy' correctly. - - :):)!!! LOL

Some of these Polish consonant clusters rival the palatalized groupings of equally simple, everyday words in Russian, e.g. 'dver' (drzwi).

Sorry, but I don't find these words difficult. Not on their own anyway.

chcę isn't too bad, but other forms of the same word are a ******* to say right.
It's those consonant clusters that pose the most problems and words mixing

ś, ć, ź - type consonants with

sz, cz, rz type ones.

That is tricky.

Yeah, this could be a bit hard, but just say the "r" "z" like in the word "Tarzan" ex: http://www.wrzuta.pl/audio/3q0cWOXaIP/
