The eighth episode of the Window to the World series takes us to the historic Slovak town of Banská Štiavnica. From there, we travel nearly 1,000 kilometers west to its twin town, Hünenberg, in Switzerland’s canton of Zug. Along the way, we’ll explore how the two towns have built a lasting partnership — through cooperation in areas such as social support, education, music, and even waste management.

The new episode of Slovak Sound Check takes you through a full day in Slovak — from getting up in the morning to going to bed at night — while covering some useful verbs and handy grammar tips along the way.
