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 Romanian, followed by a sentence-by-sentence retelling that alternates between Romanian 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.

Maybe you want to speak Romanian with your grandparents from Cluj-Napoca?

En: On a fall morning, when the leaves painted the landscape of the Carpați Mountains in a spectacle of orange and red hues, the meeting hall of the cultural center filled with animated voices.
