Robert Makłowicz is a Polish journalist, writer and presenter known for travel and culinary programmes in which he narrates locations in a rich, literary style. This clip was taken from the second episode of his Dalmatia series, titled Dalmacja, moje miejsce, about the Croatian coastal region. The single word studnia was later clipped and shared online as an out of context sound, where its serious delivery made it popular for meme edits far removed from the original travel documentary context.
About this sound
Polish TV clip of Robert Makłowicz talking about a well during his Dalmatia travel show, used as a meme sound for dropping a random Polish phrase into edits.
This is a short Polish voice clip of television presenter Robert Makłowicz saying the word studnia, meaning a well, during his Dalmatia travel programme. His delivery is calm, formal and documentary-like, which makes the isolated phrase sound oddly serious out of context. That contrast is the joke. Dropped into an unrelated video, it feels like a sudden, authoritative Polish narration has taken over for six seconds, leaving viewers who do not speak Polish confused and viewers who do instantly recognising Makłowicz's distinctive presenting style.
