Summary/Abstract: In the present study, acoustic measures of first and second formant frequencies of [i], [y] in the contextsof hard consonants were obtained from spontaneous texts produced by 18 talkers representingboth genders and living in the Near Mazovia. The differences between [i], [y] and the effect of genderand age on F1, F2 of these vowels were examined. The influence of standard Polish on [i], [y] was alsodescribed. It was found that none of the respondents identify [i], [y], both the age and gender have aneffect on F1, F2 [i], [y], and the changes in F1, F2 of the vowel [y] in the group of men are the result ofinfluences of standard Polish. New tendencies were also noticed – fronting of [i] in the middle andyounger generation of men and women, and backing of [y] in the middle and younger generation ofwomen.
