In today’s episode I am talking about one small pilgrimage site near my hometown. In the Slovak lesson you will learn more adjectives, and some colors. My story today is about shepherd Michal and his family. This is part two of the series about shepherd Michal. These stories are for what I call “false beginners” and intermediate level.

Episode notes

Today, after talking about a fun fact about a miracle that happened in the 17th century, you will learn more Slovak adjectives, as well as some colors in Slovak. Then you can hear another story about shepherd Michal and his family. It is in Slovak and again, this story is for less advanced learners of Slovak.
