À propos de cet audio

 Are you ready to supercharge your Croatian listening comprehension?

Our podcast is the perfect tool for you. Studies show that the key to mastering a second language is through repetition and active processing.

That's why each episode of our podcast features a story in Croatian, followed by a sentence-by-sentence retelling that alternates between Croatian and English.

This approach not only allows you to fully understand and absorb the vocabulary and grammar but also provides a bilingual support to aid your listening comprehension. But we don't stop there.

Research in sociolinguistics highlights the importance of culture in language learning, which is why we provide a list of vocabulary words and a transcript of the audio to help you understand the cultural context of the story. And for your convenience, we also include a transcript of the audio to help you refer back to any parts you may have struggled with.

Our podcast is not just for language learners, it's also for travelers or people who wants to connect with their roots. Are you planning a trip to Dubrovnik, Plitvice Lakes National Park, or Split? Maybe you want to speak Croatian with your grandparents from Zagreb?

Our podcast provides in-depth cultural and linguistic insights, preparing you for full immersion in the regions where Croatian is predominantly spoken, including Croatia, Bosnia, and Herzegovina. Our podcast is based on the latest research in linguistics, sociolinguistics,
psychology, cognitive science, neuroscience, and education to provide the most effective method for mastering Croatian listening comprehension.

    Fluent Fiction - Croatian: Office Gaffe: When Emails Reveal Too Much Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hr/episode/2026-01-15-08-38-20-hr Story Transcript:Hr: Krešo je sjedio za svojim stolom, gledajući promrzle snježne pahulje kroz staklene zidove ureda.En: Krešo sat at his desk, watching the frostbitten snowflakes through the glass walls of the office.Hr: Bilo je točno nakon novogodišnje ludnice, kada su se svi vraćali na posao.En: It was just after the New Year frenzy, when everyone was returning to work.Hr: Ured je bio moderan, sa sjajnim stolovima i prostranim radnim prostorima.En: The office was modern, with shiny desks and spacious work areas.Hr: Ipak, unatoč hladnom vremenu vani, u Kreši su ključale emocije.En: Yet, despite the cold weather outside, emotions were boiling within Krešo.Hr: Njegov problem bio je jednostavan, ali i katastrofalan.En: His problem was simple, yet catastrophic.Hr: Poslao je e-mail o svojoj tajnoj simpatiji prema kolegici Marini, ali ne samo njoj, već cijelom uredu.En: He had sent an email about his secret crush on his colleague Marina, not just to her, but to the entire office.Hr: Srce mu je preskočilo kad je shvatio pogrešku.En: His heart skipped a beat when he realized the mistake.Hr: Krešo je bio junior analitičar, ambiciozan i često usmjeren na karijeru, ali sada ga je ovaj gaf mogao skupo stajati.En: Krešo was a junior analyst, ambitious and often career-focused, but now this gaffe could cost him dearly.Hr: Marina je bila vedra i sposobna voditeljica projekata, uvijek srdačna i dobra prema svima.En: Marina was a cheerful and capable project manager, always warm and kind to everyone.Hr: Do sada nije bila svjesna Krešinih osjećaja, a on je želio da to tako i ostane - barem zasad.En: Until now, she was unaware of Krešo's feelings, and he wanted it to stay that way—for now, at least.Hr: Luka, njihov kolega, bio je tehnički znalac, ali također i majstor u zadirkivanju.En: Luka, their colleague, was a technical expert, but also a master of teasing.Hr: "Slušaj, Luka", započne Krešo gotovo molećivim tonom, "moraš mi pomoći. Poslao sam e-mail cijelom uredu o Marini."En: "Listen, Luka," Krešo began in an almost pleading tone, "you have to help me. I sent an email to the whole office about Marina."Hr: Luka je podigao obrvu, smiješeći se. "Stvarno? To je gotovo umjetnički."En: Luka raised an eyebrow, smiling. "Really? That's almost artistic."Hr: "Nije smiješno!" Krešo je bio očajan. "Sustav ne dopušta povlačenje e-pošte. Moraš mi pomoći s planom kako da Marina ne pročita taj e-mail."En: "It's not funny!" Krešo was desperate. "The system doesn't allow email recall. You have to help me with a plan to prevent Marina from reading that email."Hr: Luka se nasloni na vrh svog stola, gledajući Krešu kao i uvijek s izrazom koji sugerira zabavu i interes.En: Luka leaned on the top of his desk, looking at Krešo with an expression that always suggested amusement and interest.Hr: "Hmm, možda možeš pokušati s nekom distrakcijom. Bolje da požurimo, trenutak je kritičan."En: "Hmm, maybe you can try some distraction. We'd better hurry; the moment is critical."Hr: Dok su razgovarali, sustav ureda odjednom je otkazao. Tehnički kvar.En: As they talked, the office system suddenly crashed. A technical fault.Hr: Računala i e-mailovi više nisu radili. Ljudi su se skupili u malim grupama, razgovarajući i čekajući da se sve vrati na mrežu.En: Computers and emails were no longer working. People gathered in small groups, talking and waiting for everything to get back online.Hr: Krešo je vidio ovo kao svoju priliku. Prišao je Marini, nervozan i uzbuđen odjednom.En: Krešo saw this as his chance. He approached Marina, nervous and excited all at once.Hr: "Marina," počeo je, pokušavajući zvučati smireno, "moram ti nešto reći prije nego što sve proradi. Poslao sam e-mail... ali napravio sam grešku."En: "Marina," he began, trying to sound calm, "I need to tell you something before everything starts working again. I sent an email... but I made a mistake."Hr: Marina ga je gledala, blaga radoznalost u očima. "Je li sve u redu, Krešo?"En: She looked at him, a gentle curiosity in her eyes. "Is everything okay, Krešo?"Hr: Udahnuo je duboko. "Bio sam nervozan. Želio sam ti reći nešto što nije trebalo otići cijelom uredu. Možeš li, kad sustav proradi, jednostavno ignorirati taj e-mail?"En: He took a deep breath. "I was nervous. I wanted to tell you something that wasn't meant for the whole office. Can you, when the system is back, just ignore that email?"Hr: Njena osmijeh bio je nježan i razumijevajući. "Naravno, Krešo. Cijenim što si to mi rekao. Neću ga čitati."En: Her smile was gentle and understanding. "Of course, Krešo. I appreciate you telling me. I won't read it."Hr: Kako su se sustavi postupno vraćali u pogon, Krešo je osjetio olakšanje koje je dolazilo iz dubine duše.En: ...

Miroslav asked, looking out the window.Hr: Njegova srca gubilo je strast prema fotografiji, a ovdje je tražio odgovor.En: His heart had lost its passion for photography, and here he sought an answer.Hr: "Iako je hladno, Plitvice nikada ne razočaraju," nasmijala se Ivana, gledajući ga s kombinacijom podrške i entuzijazma.En: "Even though it's cold, Plitvice never disappoints," Ivana laughed, looking at him with a mix of support and enthusiasm.Hr: Odlučila je voditi Miroslava do skrivenih dragulja parka.En: She decided to lead Miroslav to the park's hidden gems.Hr: Krenuli su stazom koja je vijugala kroz bijele šume, gdje se snijeg lelujao na granama kao biserni plaštak.En: They set off on a path winding through white forests, where the snow drifted on the branches like a pearly veil.Hr: Kako su hodali, snijeg je počeo padati gušće.En: As they walked, the snow began to fall more densely.Hr: Njihovi dahovi pretvarali su se u oblake pare.En: Their breaths turned into clouds of steam.Hr: Na jednom osamljenom dijelu staze, zastali su.En: In a secluded part of the trail, they stopped.Hr: Pred njima, u snježnoj tihi, stajala je ris.En: In front of them, in the snowy stillness, stood a lynx.Hr: Njegovo krzno bilo je savršeno stopljeno s bijelim pokrivačem, oči su mu sjale poput zlatnih zrna.En: Its fur was perfectly blended with the white cover, its eyes gleamed like golden grains.Hr: "Brzo, ovo je prilika!" šapnula je Ivana, dok je njezina ruka lagano dotaknula Miroslava.En: "Quickly, this is the chance," whispered Ivana, as her hand lightly touched Miroslav.Hr: Miroslav je osjetio kako mu je srce poskočilo.En: Miroslav felt his heart leap.Hr: Zgrabio je kameru, ruke mu nisu drhtale od hladnoće, već od uzbuđenja.En: He grabbed his camera, his hands did not tremble from the cold but from excitement.Hr: Klik. Klik.En: Click. Click.Hr: Zvuk zatvarača kamerе bio je poput čarolije.En: The sound of the camera shutter was like magic.Hr: Ris je nakon toga nestao u šumi, ali trenutak je ostao zarobljen na fotografiji.En: The lynx then vanished into the forest, but the moment was captured in the photograph.Hr: Ivana se nasmijala, radosna što su uspjeli uhvatiti taj jedinstveni trenutak.En: Ivana laughed, joyful that they managed to capture that unique moment.Hr: Tog dana, posljednji tragovi sumnje nestali su iz Miroslava.En: That day, the last traces of doubt vanished from Miroslav.Hr: Shvatio je da se njegova ljubav prema fotografiji ponovno zapalila, zahvaljujući iskustvu i prijateljstvu pronađenom u parku.En: He realized that his love for photography had reignited, thanks to the experience and friendship found in the park.Hr: Ivana je znala da slika koju su uhvatili može promijeniti mnogo.En: Ivana knew that the picture they captured could change a lot.Hr: Osvojit će natječaj.En: They would win the contest.Hr: Ali još važnije, njezina strast prema očuvanju sada je imala još dublji smisao.En: But more importantly, her passion for conservation now had an even deeper meaning.Hr: Plitvička su jezera ostala mirna, no zahvaljujući Ivani i Miroslavu, njihova priča postala je ...
