Hello,

I'm afraid that this sentence is not written in Polish. Probably it's Slovak or Czech.

Were it in Polish it would have to read: za 1/10 mili, 0,1 mili or za jedną dziesiątą mili, it may mean in 0,1 of a mile.

Nope, neither. Some context would perhaps help.

It's an encoding issue on some sites, e.g. here. It shows š everywhere ą should be.

Yeah, that's what happens when you don't use safe UTF-8 encoding - some characters get misrepresented.


And so, Polish letter "ą" is sometimes represented by "š".

Anyway, it still wouldn't be in a correct form:

"za 1 dziesiąte mili" should rather be: "za 1 dziesiątą mili"

Unless you change "1" into something else:

"za 2 dziesiąte mili" sounds much better.

The meaning would be "after 1 tenth (2 tenths) of a mile".
