English translation:The letter is l with a slash

Explanation:
It is pronounced somewhat the letter "w" is pronounced in English. To see all of the Polish "ogonki" i "kreski" check the site below. The letters above aren't either in transcription nor they way they are written. Your consonant will be there next to the transcription /w/.
