Howdy peeps!

I have a narration that includes the last name: Bartosiewicz

The client doesn't know how to pronounce it. Anyone here know? I believe it's Polish? but not sure....

I would take a stab at Bar-TOE-sah-witch ...but not sure. I have a Polish friend so I'll ask if she knows.

Ok, I heard back from Stef and she reckons it is Bart-osi-evich.

Hope that helps!
