Reason n°1 Why You Still Can’t Speak Czech: Comprehensible Input


Listen Later

Struggling to Learn Czech and Speak it?Here’s Why—and How to Fix It.
  • You learn Czech and when you speak to Czechs, they immediately switch to English, leaving you unsure of what to do.
  • As you improve, you find yourself feeling lost in Czech grammar due to its complexity with cases and verbs.
  • You would like to start saying things correctly just because they sound right, but you’re not sure how to reach that point.

If any of these situations resonate with you, you’re not alone.

The problem isn’t your ability to learn—it’s how you’ve been taught to learn.Why Traditional Language Learning Doesn’t Work

Eliška, founder of slowczech and a proud mom of two bilingual boys, explains it all in this audio course. After years of helping foreigners learn Czech, she has noticed a common struggle: we’re taught languages backward. Most language courses focus on vocabulary lists and grammar rules, which are not how our brains naturally learn languages.

Speak Czech – Comprehensible Input is the Key

Before you can confidently speak Czech, you need to receive enough comprehensible input. This means exposing yourself to language that is just above your current level—material that you mostly understand but still challenges you a bit. By doing this, you naturally absorb new words and grammar structures without feeling overwhelmed.

Research supports this approach. Studies by linguist Stephen Krashen have shown that language learners who receive ample comprehensible input progress much faster than those who rely on traditional methods.

What You’ll Learn in First Part of Our Mini Course

In the first episode of our free mini-course, we dive into the importance of getting enough comprehensible input before you start speaking. You’ll learn:

  • Why comprehensible input is crucial for mastering Czech.
  • How to naturally improve your vocabulary and grammar knowledge.

Imagine Speaking Czech With Confidence

Picture this: You’re in a conversation with native Czechs, and for once, you’re not struggling to keep up. Your pronunciation is clear, your sentences flow naturally, and you’re not constantly second-guessing your grammar. This is the power of getting enough comprehensible input.
