While printing the string, instead of the list/seeing the list’s repr,
Python shows a nice human-friendly representation.

>>> s=[u'\u0105\u017c\u0119\u0142\u0144']
>>> s
[u'\u0105\u017c\u0119\u0142\u0144']
>>> s[0]
u'\u0105\u017c\u0119\u0142\u0144'
>>> print s
[u'\u0105\u017c\u0119\u0142\u0144']
>>> print s[0]
ążęłń

However, that is only the case with Python 2, as Python 3 has a
human-friendly representation in the repr, too:

>>> s=[u'\u0105\u017c\u0119\u0142\u0144']
>>> s
['ążęłń']
