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?

En: On top of the hill, a mighty castle leans toward Ljubljana. Sl: Njegove kamnite stene in skrivnostni hodniki že stoletja čuvajo zgodbe preteklosti. En: Its stone walls and mysterious corridors have guarded the stories of the past for centuries. Sl: Po ozkih poteh, ki vijugajo mimo gradu, so hodili dijaki osnovne šole, med njimi Milan in Jasna.
