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.

Tadej broke the silence.Sl: "Mmm, ne vem... Morda pred tremi leti?" Odgovor je bil previden, kakor da ne želi drezati v čase, ki so bili predolgo pozabljeni.En: "Mmm, I don’t know... Maybe three years ago?" Her reply was cautious, as if she didn't want to probe into times long forgotten.Sl: Uspeh in kariera sta ji pomenila veliko, a zdaj je občutila prazen prostor tam, kjer so nekoč bile družinske vezi.En: Success and career meant a lot to her, but now she felt an empty space where family bonds once were.Sl: Hodila sta naprej in Tadej je na koncu zbral pogum.En: They continued walking, and Tadej finally gathered the courage.Sl: "Vem, da te kariera osrečuje," je rekel, ko sta se usedla na klop s pogledom na otoško cerkev.En: "I know your career makes you happy," he said, as they sat on a bench overlooking the church on the island.Sl: "Ampak zdi se mi, kot da si pozabila, kako pomembni smo ti domači."En: "But it seems to me like you've forgotten how important your family is to you."Sl: Marina je dolgo molčala, medtem ko so se njune misli usklajevale z valovanjem vode.En: Marina was silent for a long time as their thoughts harmonized with the rippling water.Sl: "Nikoli nisem pozabila. Ampak ... ni vedno bilo lahko," je priznala.En: "I never forgot. But... it hasn’t always been easy," she admitted.Sl: "Včasih sem se počutila, kot da moram izbirati med vami in svojo prihodnostjo."En: "Sometimes I felt like I had to choose between you all and my future."Sl: Zrak med njima je postal težji, a ob tem tudi lažji, saj sta si upala izmenjati občutke, ki so ju pestili predolgo.En: The air between them became heavier, yet also lighter, as they dared to exchange feelings that had troubled them for far too long.Sl: "Nisi sama. Tukaj sem," je odločno dejal Tadej, "samo želim, da veš, da te vedno podpiram."En: "You’re not alone. I'm here," Tadej stated firmly, "I just want you to know that I always support you."Sl: "Zavedam se. In želim biti del tvojega življenja, čeprav iz daljave." Marina je nato dodala: "Obljubim, da bom večkrat obiskala in klicala."En: "I know. And I want to be a part of your life, even from afar." Marina then added, "I promise I'll visit and call more often."Sl: Nasmeh je zaigral na Tadejevem obrazu.En: A smile played on Tadej's face.Sl: Občutil je toplino starih časov, zdaj pomešano z razumevanjem in sprejemanjem trenutnih razmer.En: He felt the warmth of old times now mixed with understanding and acceptance of the current situation.Sl: "Morda ne tako pogosto, kot smo si včasih predstavljali," je rekel, "ampak dovolj, da čutimo, da je to pomembno."En: "Maybe not as often as we once imagined," he said, "but enough to feel that it matters."Sl: S skupnim pogledom na lepe kotičke Slovenije in ob obeti prihodnjih spominov sta vstala.En: With a shared gaze at the beautiful corners of Slovenia and the prospects of future memories, they stood up.Sl: Nebo je postajalo rdečkasto, razlivajoče toploto večernega sonca v njuna srca.En: The sky turned reddish, spreading the warmth of the evening sun into their hearts.Sl: Vsak njun korak nazaj k vsakdanjiku je bil lažji, z obljubo, da bosta zdaj bolje razumela odločitve drug drugega ter bila bolj prisotna v življenju, kljub kilometrom med njima.En: Every step back to their everyday lives was lighter, with the promise that they would now better understand each other's choices and...
