Dave's challenge: Let's learn Slovene - A podcast by RTVSLO - Radio SI

Categories:

Slovene is not as easy as it seems and it can be COMPLICATED - KOMPLICIRANO, especially when you consider all the different dialects it has. Neighbour Jože was not speaking CHINESE - KITAJŠČINA, nor HUNGARIAN – MADŽARŠČINA, and it was definitely no PARROT – PAPIGA language. Short – mostly two-syllable words - are often used in many Slovene dialects, including in ŠTAJERŠČINA – STYRIAN. And some of the phrases neighbour Jože used were: KI SI TI? – WHERE ARE YOU?, KA TE VEM – I DON'T KNOW, KI TE TO JE? – WHERE'S THAT?, NI NEKE HICE – IT'S NOT THAT HOT, DAJ NEHI NO – PLEASE, STOP IT, MAMO MI TO – WE'VE GOT THIS, and KA TE ČEŠ – WELL, WHAT CAN YOU DO. TE PA TAK – OK THEN.
