A young Slovene girl called Fani spent a year in the Emerald Isle working as an au-pair. After falling in love with good-humoured Irish bartender Dave, Fani lures him back to Maribor. But how can he possibly survive without knowing any Slovene? Trying to master »survival Slovene« turns out to be an incredible challenge for the highly motivated Dave, and occasionally a real nightmare for his beloved Fani.
A Daily dose of Slovene language for foreigners wanting to improve their everyday Slovene, and have a laugh while doing it.
Premieres every weekday at 7:30 am, rebroadcasts at 3:45 pm … only on Radio Si.

Mlada slovenka Fani je leto dni preživela na zelenem Irskem kot varuška otrok. Tam se zaljubi v hudomušnega barmana Davea in ga zvabi, da se z njo vrne/preseli v Maribor. A le kako v Sloveniji preživeti brez znanja slovenščine?
Spoznavanje »preživetvene slovenščine« je za izjemno motiviranega Irca neverjeten izziv, za njegovo Fani pa občasno prava nočna mora.
Dnevna doza slovenskega jezika za vse tujce, ki bi se želeli vsak dan naučiti nekaj novih slovenskih besed za vsakdanjik in se ob tem še nasmejati.
Vsak delavnik premiera ob 7:30, ponovitev ob 15:45 … samo na Radiu Si.

    Yes … Dave has become a real promoter of the Slovenian language among foreigners. It is not a COINCIDENCE – NAKLJUČJE that in this last episode he already teaches Slovenian words: BUČKINA JUHA is PUMPKIN SOUP, BRUSNIČNA OMAKA is CRANBERRY SAUCE, TELEČJA PEČENKA means ROAST VEAL… And if you still want to learn even more words find all the episodes of “Dave’s Challenge: Let’s Learn Slovene” on the Radio Si podcast!

    323 - First tooth

    A new chapter in our Irish-Slovene couple´s life as parents has begun - the growing of the BABY TEETH – MLEČNI ZOBKI. Babies tend TO DROOL – SLINITI SE and also keep PUTTING THINGS IN THEIR MOUTH – DAJEJO STVARI V USTA. When you massage a baby’s GUM – DLESEN, you also see the tooth coming out. Some babies grow their teeth with no problems, others tend to get a light FEVER – VROČINA or even DIARRHEA – DRISKA. Yes, parenting is not easy…
