[edit]- ^ For transcription, [lodzs] is given in Laczkó, Krisztina with Attila Mártonfi (2006) Helyesírás [Orthography], Budapest: Osiris Kiadó, →ISBN. Word-final dzs is always pronounced long (unless it follows another consonant in the same syllable). The second and the third variants may reflect the original pronunciation more faithfully but are likely to cause non-Polish-speakers more difficulty when trying to recognize the name.
Polish
[edit]Etymology
[edit]Unknown. Possible etymologies include:
- From the surname Łodzic.
- From the given name Włodzisław.
- From Old Polish łoza (“willow tree”).
Popular incorrect etymologies include:
- From łódź (“boat”). This is incorrect, since the city does not lie near any navigable body of water.
- From Łódka, a small river in the city. This is also incorrect, since the river was named after the city, not the other way around.
