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.

En: The summer sun shone in Central Park. Hu: A levegő tele volt az élet és a zene hangjaival. En: The air was filled with the sounds of life and music. Hu: A fák alatt egy padon ült István, kezében a hegedűjével. En: Under the trees, István sat on a bench, with his violin in hand. Hu: Magyarországról jött, hogy koncertet adjon New Yorkban, de most inkább magányos volt. En: He had come from Hungary to give a concert in New York, but now he felt rather lonely.

En: Born to a Hungarian mother, but she grew up in America. Hu: Hiányérzete volt. En: She felt a sense of longing. Hu: Hiányzott neki valami, amit nem talált meg a nagyvárosi életben.

Hu: István hirtelen döntött: előveszi a hegedűjét és játszani kezd. En: Suddenly István decided: he would take out his violin and start playing. Hu: Hallani lehetett a magyar népdalokat, amik betöltötték a levegőt. En: You could hear the Hungarian folk songs filling the air.
