Our C is reffered in IPA as joined "TS" sound, so there is definitely some merit to that

[–] Bohurt@lemm.ee 1 points 4 weeks ago

Polish C is also described as /t͡s/ (e.g. co /t͡sɔ/). According to wiki both are dental and voiceless although one is plosive and the other affricate. As I've read their descriptions on wiki, they made a lot of sense - /t͡s/ starts with a blockade of airway (just as /t/) but the air is released slightly differently thus making the difference in sound produced.
