À propos de cet audio

 Are you ready to supercharge your Slovak 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 Slovak, followed by a sentence-by-sentence retelling that alternates between Slovak 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 Bratislava, Košice, or High Tatras? Maybe you want to speak Slovak with your grandparents from Banská Bystrica?

Our podcast will provide you with the cultural and linguistic background needed to fully immerse yourself in Slovakia, the heartland where the Slovak language is primarily spoken. 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 Slovak listening comprehension.

Don't miss this opportunity, give our podcast a try and see the results for yourself. Zlepšte svoje počúvacie schopnosti s našimi slovenskými príbehmi ešte dnes!Copyright FluentFiction.org Apprentissage des langues Éducation

Ivana asked, her eyes shining brightly in the light of the glowing lamps.Sk: Bola vždy plná energie, jej radosť bola nákazlivá.En: She was always full of energy, and her joy was contagious.Sk: „Niečo praktické,“ povedal Ladislav s ironickým úsmevom. „Žiadne sentimentálne hlúposti.“En: "Something practical," said Ladislav with an ironic smile. "No sentimental nonsense."Sk: Vladimír kráčal vedľa nich, jeho myseľ bola inde.En: Vladimír walked beside them, his mind elsewhere.Sk: Chcel nájsť niečo zvláštne pre Ivanu, niečo, čo by jej ukázalo jeho city.En: He wanted to find something special for Ivana, something that would show her his feelings.Sk: „Možno sa najprv zastavíme pri stánkoch so šperkami?“ navrhol nakoniec.En: "Maybe we should first stop by the jewelry stalls?" he suggested finally.Sk: Trh bol preplnený.En: The market was crowded.Sk: Všetci okolo sa smiali, tešili sa a nakupovali.En: Everyone around was laughing, enjoying themselves, and shopping.Sk: Vladimír však myslel len na Ivanu.En: Vladimír, however, was thinking only of Ivana.Sk: Bál sa, že nevie nájsť ten správny darček.En: He was afraid he wouldn't find the right gift.Sk: Pri jednom zo stánkov uvidel krásne strieborné prívesky.En: At one of the stalls, he saw beautiful silver pendants.Sk: Jemne sa trblietali v svetle sviečok.En: They shimmered gently in the candlelight.Sk: Jeden z príveskov mal jednoduchý, ale elegantný dizajn.En: One of the pendants had a simple yet elegant design.Sk: Vladimír si pomyslel, že možno práve to je ten pravý darček.En: Vladimír thought that perhaps this was the right gift.Sk: „Čo myslíš, Ivana?“ spýtal sa, ukazujúc na prívesok. „Je krásny, však?“En: "What do you think, Ivana?" he asked, pointing to the pendant. "It's beautiful, isn't it?"Sk: Ivana sa usmiala. „Áno, je krásny. Určite by potešil.“En: Ivana smiled. "Yes, it's beautiful. It would definitely make someone happy."Sk: S rozhodnutím v srdci Vladimír kúpil prívesok.En: With a decision in his heart, Vladimír bought the pendant.Sk: Dúfal, že práve tento darček jej môže prezradiť, čo cíti.En: He hoped this gift could reveal what he felt.Sk: Blížil sa k momentu, ktorého sa obával, ale ktorý bol aj príležitosťou.En: He was approaching the moment he feared but also saw as an opportunity.Sk: Pod svetlami trhu, zatiaľ čo vločky snežili nad ich hlavami, uchopil Vladimír Ivanu za ruku.En: Under the market lights, while snowflakes fell above their heads, Vladimír took Ivana's hand.Sk: „Ivana,“ začal, ticho a váhavo.En: "Ivana," he started, quietly and hesitantly.Sk: Potom, oveľa odvážnejšie, pokračoval: „Chcem ti dať tento prívesok. Je pre teba, aby som ti povedal, že ťa mám viac než rád.“En: Then, much more boldly, he continued, "I want to give you this pendant. It's for you, to tell you that I care more than just a friend."Sk: Ivana na chvíľu mlčala, zaskočilo ju jeho priznanie.En: Ivana was silent for a moment, surprised by his confession.Sk: Potom ale natiahla ruku pre prívesok.En: But then she reached out for the pendant.Sk: Jej oči sa jemne leskli.En: Her eyes gently glistened.Sk: „Ďakujem, Vladimír. Veľmi to pre mňa znamená,“ povedala a jej úsmev naznačoval odpoveď, ktorú si prial počuť.En: "Thank you, Vladimír. It means a lot to me," she said, and her smile hinted at the answer he wished to hear.Sk: Postavila sa na špičky a objala ho.En: She stood on her tiptoes and hugged him.Sk: Vladimír pocítil náhle teplo, ktoré prichádzalo nie len z jej oblečenia, ale najmä z jej úprimného a krásneho žmurkania.En: Vladimír felt sudden warmth, coming not just from her clothing but especially from her sincere and beautiful gaze.Sk: Vedel, že jeho odvaha priniesla ovocie, ktoré posilnilo ich puto.En: He knew his courage had borne fruit, strengthening their bond.Sk: Spoločne sa pridali k ...
