Zając (archaic feminine: Zającowa, plural Zającowie) is one of the most common surnames in Poland and the third most popular in Lesser Poland. The English translation of this surname is "hare".〔J. Stanisławski, ''English-Polish and Polish - English Dictionary'', David McKay Company, Inc., p. 379〕 The second vowel of the name, generally rendered as "a" in English-speaking countries, is the nasalized ą of Polish, producing, in Polish, a sound somewhat more like a long ō in English. Without the nasalized ą (namely as "Zajac") the name also appears outside the Polish setting, sometimes with a variant spelling, especially in connection with other Slavic nationalities. Notable people with the surname include: * Bogdan Zając (born 1972), Polish football defender * Jack Zajac (born 1929), American artist * Józef Zając, (1891–1963) * Marcin Zając (born 1975), Polish football midfielder * Marek Zając (born 1973), Polish football defender * Stanisław Zając (born 1949), Polish politician * Travis Zajac (born 1985), Polish-Canadian hockey player == See also == * Zając, Masovian Voivodeship (east-central Poland) * Zajac (disambiguation) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Zając」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
