    You understand your colleagues, the clients, Luxembourgish in meetings… but can’t find the words to speak Luxembourgish at work?

    🎙️ Improve your Listening skills & understand native speakers - Part 1

    How are your Luxembourgish listening skills? 👂 Do you sometimes struggle to follow native speakers in conversations, understand your colleagues at work, or catch the news on the radio? Improving listening skills is no secret - it’s challenging, especially if you’re not exposed to Luxembourgish daily. The key? Listen as much as possible. Easier said than done, right? Not only is vocabulary a hurdle, but understanding native speakers can be tricky because of connected speech and dropped sounds like the final “-n” in words. These little reductions make the language flow smoothly, naturally, and not choppy but they can make comprehension harder at first. If you want to better understand your coworkers, feel confident for the listening part of the Sproochentest, or just improve your overall comprehension, this episode is for you. 🎧 I’ll share 5 key things to focus on to take your listening skills to the next level. 🎯 👉 Spotify 👉 Apple 📄 Read along on my blog - Here. 👉 Curious what learning Luxembourgish with purpose looks like?

    🎙️ What it means to learn a language especially Luxembourgish

    Why learn Luxembourgish — when everyone already speaks English? It’s a question I hear often from expats in Luxembourg. And honestly, on the surface, it makes sense. Luxembourg is multilingual. English, French, and German are part of everyday life. Almost half of the population is foreign. So why invest time and energy in learning Luxembourgish? Because learning a language has never really been about efficiency. Yes, vocabulary and grammar matter. But they’re only the starting point. Learning a language is about people. It’s about connection. It’s about feeling less like an outsider and more like you belong. And this is especially true when it comes to Luxembourgish. In today’s podcast episode, I explore what learning Luxembourgish really means beyond grammar and vocabulary: • how language creates connection at work • how it supports integration in everyday life • and why Luxembourgish still matters — even in a multilingual country 🎧 If you’ve ever wondered whether learning Luxembourgish is “worth it”, this episode is for you. 👉 Spotify 👉 Apple 📄 Read along on my blog - Here. 💬 I’d love to know: What motivated you to start learning Luxembourgish — or what’s holding you back? #LearnLuxembourgish #LuxembourgishLanguage #LanguageLearning Formal & Business Luxembourgish Online Course https://courses.luxembourgishwithanne.lu/p/a2-b2luxembourgish-language-course-formal-and-business Sproochentest Oral Exam Prep Class: https://courses.luxembourgishwithanne.lu/p/oralexam Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/luxembourgishwithanne.lu/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/luxembourgishwithanne/?hl=en LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/80364342/admin/feed/posts Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCh7_kWqrLaZea-IJH46KJEA

    🎙️ New Episode: Why I Don’t Recommend Using AI to Learn or Translate Luxembourgish

    AI is everywhere and I get this question regularly: “Can’t I just use AI to learn Luxembourgish or translate everything?” Here’s the honest truth: AI can support your learning, but relying on it as your main teacher for Luxembourgish will slow you down more than it helps. Why? Because Luxembourgish is a less widely represented language in AI training data. That means AI often guesses and sometimes gets it very wrong. Here are some real examples of mistakes AI can make: German words: Et ass bewölkt→ Correct: Et ass bedecktWrong Grammar: D’Kanner spillen an den Gaart → Correct: D’Kanner spillen am (an dem) GaartLiteral translations from English: Ech si spannend fir dech ze gesinn → Correct: Ech freeë mech drop, dech ze gesinnWrong pronouns/formality: Kann ech dir hëllefen? → Correct (formal): Kann ech Iech hëllefen?Wrong n-rule - Ech hu Zäit . → Correct Ech hunn Zäit And the biggest danger? Learners don’t always notice the mistakes… until they become habits. AI is great for inspiration or extra practice but not for accuracy, natural phrasing and learning the language correctly. In today’s episode, I break down: 🔹 When AI can be useful 🔹 When it can mislead you 🔹 Real examples of where it goes wrong 🔹 How to use AI safely without sabotaging your progress If you’re learning Luxembourgish (or supporting others who are), this one will save you hours of frustration. 🎧 Listen to the episode here: 👉 Spotify 👉 Apple 📄 Read along on my blog - Here. 🚀 Want to improve your Luxembourgish language skills?

    🎙️New Podcast Episode Talk About Your Life in Luxembourgish: Birth, School and more - Part 5

    Every life story has chapters. Some are easy to talk about. Others require a bit more care — especially in another language.

Across this series, we’ve slowly built the language to talk about: • birth • school and education • work • marriage and children And now, we complete the circle. In today’s episode, you’ll learn natural, respectful Luxembourgish phrases for: • talking about retirement • speaking about later stages of life • and choosing the right words when someone passes away This isn’t textbook language. It’s language you can actually use when sharing your own story or when listening to someone else’s. 🎧 Ready to close the loop on your Lëtzebuergesch life story?
