Are you ready to supercharge your Estonian 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 Estonian, followed by a sentence-by-sentence retelling that alternates between Estonian 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 Tallinn, Tartu, or Pärnu? Maybe you want to speak Estonian with your grandparents from Narva?

Our podcast provides a rich blend of cultural and linguistic insights to thoroughly engage you in the authentic Estonian experience, primarily found within the picturesque borders of Estonia. 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 Estonian listening comprehension.

Tema silmadesse tekkis varjund, mis Maarjale tundus saladuslik ja pisut kurb.En: It's connected to my family..." A shadow appeared in his eyes, which seemed mysterious and slightly sad to Maarja.Et: Tõnu ohkas.En: Tõnu sighed.Et: "Oled sa kindel, et sa tahad edasi minna?En: "Are you sure you want to continue?Et: See võib olla ohtlik."En: This could be dangerous."Et: Maarja naeratas julgelt.En: Maarja smiled boldly.Et: "Ma tean, aga ma pean teadma tõde."En: "I know, but I need to know the truth."Et: Nad nõustusid liikuma ettevaatlikult.En: They agreed to proceed cautiously.Et: Nad kõndisid sügavamale rabasse, teadmata, et keegi oli neid jälginud.En: They walked deeper into the raba, unaware that someone was watching them.Et: Tundus, et raja kaugemal lõpus ilmusid kaks võõrast meest, kelle näol ilmus kurjakuulutav ilme.En: It seemed that two strangers appeared at the far end of the trail, with menacing expressions on their faces.Et: "See ümbrik kuulub meile," ütles üks neist karedal häälel.En: "That envelope belongs to us," one of them said in a rough voice.Et: Maarja tundis, et süda puperdab, kuid ta ei taganenud.En: Maarja felt her heart pounding, but she didn't back down.Et: Tänu Tõnu kalkuleeritud rahulikusele ja Kalevi tundmatule julgustusele nad säilitasid rahu.En: Thanks to Tõnu's calculated calm and Kalevi's unknown courage, they kept their composure.Et: Lõpuks, pärast teravaid läbirääkimisi ja piisavalt veenmist, taandusid võõrad, jättes Maarja ja tema sõbrad oma mälestuste ja avastustega üksi.En: Finally, after sharp negotiations and enough persuasion, the strangers retreated, leaving Maarja and her friends with their memories and discoveries.Et: Kirjade ja fotode saladus oli sügav.En: The secret of the letters and photos was profound.Et: Need paljastasid Maarja ja Kalevi ühised peresidemed aastakümnete tagant – möödunud aegade lugu, mille olemasolust nad kumbki polnud teadlik.En: They revealed shared family ties between Maarja and Kalevi from decades past—a story from bygone times of which neither was aware.Et: Maarja, vaadates nüüd Kalevit uue pilguga,...

The Estonian narrator is much slower than the English one. I would prefer the same rate of delivery for both languages
