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.

Story Transcript:

Sk: V chladnom vzduchu jesenného poobedia sa šírila vôňa padajúcich listov v záhradách Bratislavského hradu.
En: In the chilly air of the autumn afternoon, the scent of falling leaves spread through the gardens of Bratislavského hradu (Bratislava Castle).

Sk: Slnečné lúče sa preplietali pomedzi konáre stromov a osvetľovali cestu, na ktorej kráčali Ján a Sára.
En: Sun rays wove through the branches of trees, illuminating the path where Ján and Sára walked.

Sk: V tichu bolo počuť iba jemný šelest lístia pod ich nohami.
En: Only the gentle rustle of leaves under their feet could be heard in the silence.

Sk: Bolo to dokonalé miesto na dôležitý rozhovor.
En: It was the perfect place for an important conversation.

Sk: Sára pozvala Jána, aby spolu obdivovali farebné lístie.
En: Sára invited Ján to admire the colorful foliage together.

Sk: Vedela, že dnes musí urobiť dôležité rozhodnutie.
En: She knew she had to make an important decision today.

Sk: Ján sa zamyslene pozeral na okolie.
En: Ján looked thoughtfully around.

Sk: Potreboval sa rozhodnúť, či prijme novú prácu v zahraničí.
En: He needed to decide whether to accept a new job abroad.

Sk: Sára mala tiež svoje plány.
En: Sára also had her plans.

Sk: Chcela sa presťahovať do druhého mesta.
En: She wanted to move to another city.

Sk: „Ján,“ začala Sára mäkko, „musím ti niečo povedať.
En: "Ján," Sára began softly, "I need to tell you something."

Sk: “ Ján pristúpil bližšie s očakávaním.
En: Ján stepped closer with expectation.

Sk: „Chcem sa presťahovať do Košíc,“ pokračovala Sára.
En: "I want to move to Košíc (Košice)," Sára continued.

Sk: „Je to pre mňa veľká príležitosť.
En: "It's a big opportunity for me.

Sk: Ale bojím sa, čo to urobí s nami.
En: But I'm afraid of what it will do to us."

Sk: “Ján sa nadýchol.
En: Ján took a breath.

Sk: „Aj mne ponúkli prácu,“ povedal pomaly.
En: "I was offered a job too," he said slowly.

Sk: „Ale je to ďaleko, v Česku.
En: "But it's far away, in Česku (the Czech Republic).

Sk: Zvažujem, čo to znamená pre nás.
En: I'm considering what it means for us."

Sk: “Obaja stáli v tichu, obklopení nádhernou jesennou krajinkou.
En: Both stood in silence, surrounded by the beautiful autumn landscape.

Sk: Ich srdcia boli plné zmiešaných pocitov.
En: Their hearts were full of mixed emotions.

Sk: Priali si byť spolu, ale vedeli, že život ich možno rozpúta na rôzne cesty.
En: They wished to be together, but they knew life might send them on different paths.

Sk: „Musíme byť úprimní, Ján,“ povedala Sára rozhodne.
En: "We have to be honest, Ján," Sára said decisively.

Sk: „Nesmie nás strach ovládať.
En: "We can't let fear control us."

Sk: “„Máš pravdu,“ prikývol Ján.
En: "You're right," Ján nodded.

Sk: „Nechcem ťa stratiť.
En: "I don't want to lose you.

Sk: Ale chcem tiež nasledovať svoje sny.
En: But I also want to follow my dreams."

Sk: “Pod baldachýnom padajúcich listov sa objali.
En: Under the canopy of falling leaves, they embraced.

Sk: Rozhodli sa podporovať jeden druhého, nech sa stane čokoľvek.
En: They decided to support each other, no matter what happens.

Sk: Sára sa presťahuje do Košíc, Ján príjme prácu v zahraničí.
En: Sára...
