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.

Story Transcript:

Sl: Matej se je s Petrom sprehajal po obali Blejskega jezera.
En: Matej was taking a walk with Petra along the shore of Blejsko jezero.

Sl: Jesenski čas je bil čaroben.
En: The autumn season was magical.

Sl: Listje je sijalo v rdečih, oranžnih in zlatih barvah.
En: The leaves glowed in red, orange, and golden colors.

Sl: Nad jezerom je bilo spokojno tiho.
En: Above the lake, it was peacefully quiet.

Sl: V zraku je bil vonj po svežem listju in rahlo je hladilo.
En: There was a scent of fresh leaves in the air, and it was slightly cool.

Sl: Sredi jezera je ležal otoček z majhno cerkvico, ki se je zrcalila v vodi.
En: In the middle of the lake lay a small island with a little church, which reflected in the water.

Sl: Matej se je ustavil.
En: Matej stopped.

Sl: "Glej, Petra," je navdušeno rekel.
En: "Look, Petra," he said excitedly.

Sl: "Kaj praviš, da poskusiva priveslati tja?
En: "What do you say we try rowing there?"

Sl: " Petra je nekoliko dvomljivo pogledala svetlikajočo se gladino.
En: Petra glanced somewhat doubtfully at the shimmering surface.

Sl: "Ne vem, Matej.
En: "I don't know, Matej.

Sl: Nisem še nikoli veslala," je previdno dejala.
En: I've never rowed before," she said cautiously.

Sl: Matej se je nasmehnil.
En: Matej smiled.

Sl: "Jaz tudi ne, ampak to bo zabavno!
En: "Neither have I, but it will be fun!

Sl: Imela bova piknik na otočku!
En: We'll have a picnic on the island!"

Sl: " Petra je zavzdihnila, vendar nasmejana prikimala.
En: Petra sighed but nodded, smiling.

Sl: "Prav," je rekla.
En: "Alright," she said.

Sl: Najela sta čoln in se usedla vanj.
En: They rented a boat and sat in it.

Sl: Matej je samozavestno prijel vesla.
En: Matej confidently took the oars.

Sl: Petra je sedla nasproti, držala je majhno košaro s hrano.
En: Petra sat opposite him, holding a small basket of food.

Sl: "Samo previdno," je rekla.
En: "Just be careful," she said.

Sl: Matej je začel veslati.
En: Matej started rowing.

Sl: Čoln se je zganil, vendar se ni premaknil naravnost.
En: The boat stirred but didn’t move straight.

Sl: Namesto tega je začel krožiti v krogih.
En: Instead, it began to circle around.

Sl: Petra se je z rokami prijela roba čolna.
En: Petra clutched the edge of the boat.

Sl: "Matej, veslaš premočno z eno roko!
En: "Matej, you're rowing too hard with one hand!

Sl: Poskusi bolj usklajeno!
En: Try to be more coordinated!"

Sl: " je zaklicala.
En: she called out.

Sl: Matej se je trudil, vendar se je čoln še naprej vrtel.
En: Matej struggled, but the boat continued to spin.

Sl: Nenadoma sta oba izbruhnila v smeh.
En: Suddenly, they both burst into laughter.

Sl: "To je kot vrtiljak!
En: "This is like a merry-go-round!"

Sl: " je rekla Petra med smehom.
En: Petra said amidst her laughter.

Sl: Matej je poskušal ponovno ujeti ravnotežje.
En: Matej tried to regain balance.

Sl: "Morda bi ti morala poskusiti," je Matej predlagal.
En: "Maybe you should give it a try," Matej suggested.

Sl: S skupnimi močmi sta se zbrala.
En: With combined efforts, they gathered themselves.

Sl: Po nekaj neuspešnih poskusih sta...
