À propos de cet audio

 Are you ready to supercharge your Slovenian 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 Slovenian, followed by a sentence-by-sentence retelling that alternates between Slovenian 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 Lake Bled, Postojna Cave, or Ljubljana Castle? Maybe you want to speak Slovenian with your grandparents from Ljubljana?

Our podcast will provide you with the cultural and linguistic background necessary to fully immerse yourself in the atmosphere and life of Slovenia, the primary country where Slovenian is fluently 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 Slovenian listening comprehension.

Rok asked, breaking the silence.Sl: Vprašanje je bilo koristno, vendar nihče od njiju ni pričakoval odgovora.En: The question was meaningful, but neither of them expected an answer.Sl: Mateja je pogledala proti Blejskemu otoku, ki se je zrcalil v vodi.En: Mateja looked towards the Bled Island, reflecting in the water.Sl: Zvonovi cerkve so zvonili v daljavi, vabilo za vse željne sreče v novem letu.En: The church bells rang in the distance, inviting all those hoping for happiness in the new year.Sl: "Lepo je biti doma, ampak počutim se... izgubljeno," je priznala.En: "It's nice to be home, but I feel... lost," she admitted.Sl: "Ko sem bila v tujini, sem lahko bila nekdo drug.En: "When I was abroad, I could be someone else.Sl: Tukaj pa me spet dohiti življenje, ki sem ga poznala."En: Here, life I once knew catches up with me again."Sl: Rok je sklonil glavo, njegov optimizem je omledel.En: Rok bowed his head, his optimism fading.Sl: "Pogrešal sem te.En: "I've missed you.Sl: Hotel sem, da veš, da sem tu za tebe.En: I wanted you to know that I'm here for you.Sl: Da lahko znova najdeš svoj mir tu, z mano."En: That you can find your peace here again, with me."Sl: Mateja je vzdihnila.En: Mateja sighed.Sl: "Rok, ni tako preprosto.En: "Rok, it's not that simple.Sl: Bojim se, da ne znam biti tukaj prava jaz – s tabo, kjer me vsemu odpiraš."En: I'm afraid I don't know how to be truly myself here – with you, where you're opening everything up for me."Sl: Zvoki zabave iz bližnje restavracije so bili glasnejši, ko sta se vrnila na obalo.En: The sounds of a party from a nearby restaurant grew louder as they returned to the shore.Sl: Okoli njiju so mimoidoči pari že našli zasneženo idilo, a Rok je bil zdaj odločen.En: Around them, passing couples had already found a snowy idyll, but Rok was now determined.Sl: "Bil sem potrpežljiv, a tudi jaz imam svoje strahove," je rekel tiho.En: "I've been patient, but I have my fears too," he said quietly.Sl: "Bojim se, da me ne vidiš kot prihodnost, ampak le kot nekaj, kar ti preprečuje korak naprej."En: "I'm afraid you don't see me as the future, but just something that's holding you back."Sl: Pogledala sta se.En: They looked at each other.Sl: Njune misli so se prepletale z njihovimi resničnimi besedami, ki so končno našle mesto.En: Their thoughts intertwined with their real words that had finally found a place.Sl: "Nočem te izgubiti," je rekel Rok, z iskricami upanja v očeh.En: "I don't want to lose you," said Rok, with hopeful sparks in his eyes.Sl: "Ampak moram vedeti, da si pripravljena posvetiti se zvezi."En: "But I need to know you're ready to commit to the relationship."Sl: "Rok," je začela Mateja z rahlim tresenjem v glasu.En: "Rok," Mateja began with a slight tremble in her voice.Sl: "Sem pripravljena dati nama priložnost.En: "I'm ready to give us a chance.Sl: Ampak potrebujem čas.En: But I need time.Sl: Oba potrebujeva usmeritev."En: We both need direction."Sl: Ko je ura odbila polnoč, so se začeli na nebu risati ognjemeti, razsvetljujoči noč.En: As the clock struck midnight, fireworks began painting the sky, illuminating the night.Sl: Rok jo je nežno objel.En: Rok gently embraced her.Sl: "Potrudila se bom," je šepnila.En: "I'll try," she whispered.Sl: Poskušala bom biti zate in zame tisti del doma, ki ga oba potrebujemo."En: "And I'll try to be for you and for me that part of home that we both need."Sl: Srečno novo leto je prineslo več kot le novo...
