It’s pronounced “Stefan Wloka”
I remember when my Polish friend was like “Wrocław” is pronounced “Vrots-loff.” wtf?
It’s pretty close to how you would pronounce that in German if you would read it for the first time
German would probably be spelled Wrotzlow. But I believe it’s called Breslau in German for real.
You are right with both.
Correction: “Vrots-waff”. Ł, ł sounds the same as W, like in “why”.
