I'm Polish, and I never heard word "dziatel" in Polish, althou it could be used somewhere in mountain region naighbouring with Slovaks, Czechs, Bjelorussians, or Ukrainians (Rusins). In Polish language word for the "oodpecker" is "Dzieciol"(dzie'ciol'). Normally it is written with "haczek" uder "e" for nazal "e" - remnant of Stary Cerkiewny Slowianski - and letter "l" with aoblique arm, having the sound like "w" in English. |
