概要

 Are you ready to supercharge your Afrikaans 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 Afrikaans, followed by a sentence-by-sentence retelling that alternates between Afrikaans 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 Cape Town, Stellenbosch, or Franschhoek? Maybe you want to speak Afrikaans with your grandparents from Pretoria?

Our podcast will equip you with the cultural and linguistic background needed to fully immerse yourself in regions where Afrikaans is primarily spoken, such as South Africa and Namibia. 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 Afrikaans listening comprehension.

Don't miss this opportunity, give our podcast a try and see the results for yourself. Verbeter jou luistervaardigheid vandag met ons Afrikaanse stories!Copyright FluentFiction.org 教育 語学学習

She offered him a piece.Af: Pieter het halwe-sekerheen geknikt en die koek geproe.En: Pieter nodded half-surely and tasted the cake.Af: Soet, met die bekende smaak van tuis, het die koek 'n ou bekende warmte oor hom laat spoel.En: Sweet, with the familiar taste of home, the cake enveloped him with a sense of old, familiar warmth.Af: Maar ondanks die geure van huis, was daar steeds 'n afstand, 'n ongesproke spanning tussen hom en sy pa, Thomas.En: But despite the flavors of home, there was still a distance—a silent tension between him and his father, Thomas.Af: Thomas het stilweg na die toneel gekyk, sy oë sag, maar sy houding onhandig.En: Thomas quietly observed the scene, his eyes gentle but his demeanor awkward.Af: Hy was altyd liefdevol, maar emosioneel teruggetrokke, veral sedert hulle ma oorlede is.En: He had always been loving but emotionally withdrawn, especially since their mother passed away.Af: Elmarie het gesê, “Pa, ek dink Pieter het jou gemis meer as wat hy sê.” Haar woorde het die spanning gebreek, ten minste vir 'n oomblik.En: Elmarie said, “Dad, I think Pieter missed you more than he’s saying.” Her words broke the tension, at least for a moment.Af: Pieter het gedink aan die afstand wat hy gevoel het.En: Pieter thought of the distance he felt.Af: Die skaduwees van die verlede, die verlore jare, het tussen hom en Thomas gestaan.En: The shadows of the past, the lost years, stood between him and Thomas.Af: Hy het geweet dit was tyd om te praat, maar waar sou hy begin?En: He knew it was time to talk, but where should he begin?Af: "So Pa," het Pieter met 'n aarselende glans in sy stem begin.En: "So Dad," Pieter began with a hesitant glint in his voice.Af: "Ek voel soos 'n vreemdeling. Ek sukkel om weer tuis te voel."En: "I feel like a stranger. I'm struggling to feel at home again."Af: Thomas het diep ingeasem en gekyk na die berg agter hulle.En: Thomas took a deep breath and looked at the mountain behind them.Af: "Ek sien dit, seun," het hy stilweg gesê.En: "I see that, son," he said quietly.Af: "Ek weet dinge het verander terwyl jy weg was. Ek weet ek was nie altyd die beste om te wys hoe ek voel nie."En: "I know things changed while you were away. I know I wasn't always the best at showing how I feel."Af: Die woorde het die spasie tussen hulle gevul met iets nuuts - 'n plek vir begrip.En: The words filled the space between them with something new—a space for understanding.Af: Pieter het geknik, en 'n briesie het oor die oppervlak van sy siel gewaai, sag en kalm.En: Pieter nodded, and a breeze swept over the surface of his soul, gentle and calm.Af: "Pappa, ek wil naby wees.
