Free Czech audiobooks

4 Upvotes

Can anyone recommend some websites with free audiobooks?

I’ve managed to find audiobooks in Czech on Spotify before but the audiobook I’m looking for right now is Master and Margarita and on Spotify it’s narrated by AI 😐. A google search gave me a radio edition of the book but it feels more like a play and is confusing to follow. I also checked on YouTube but again found AI.

So if anyone can recommend any places to find this audiobook for free I’d really appreciate it.

Immersion Learning Czech? I Make Free Comprehensible Input Videos For Beginners

Post image
26 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

If you’ve been looking for Czech learning resources, you might have come across my YouTube channel, Czech-in. I recently returned from a break and started uploading regularly again, so if you've seen my content before, you can jump right back in where you left off.

For those who aren't familiar, Czech-in (Czech comprehensible input) is a channel dedicated entirely to comprehensible input and provides immersive experience. This means I create videos in Czech and make them understandable for beginners by using simple vocabulary and a lot of visual elements, such as drawings, gestures, and images. The topics are straightforward, ranging from stories and games to day-to-day topics about everyday life.

My newest video is a simple "This or That" game designed specifically for beginner comprehension: here's the link.

If you are studying Czech, checking out the channel and watching the videos is the best way to support the project. If you know people who might be interested in this resource, spreading the word helps a ton, too.

PS. While I sometimes employ AI elements, the core will always remain human.

Hi everyone

Planning to apply for a 2 year Master degree in Czechia and i was thinking about visa requirements so should I apply for a long-term visa (Type D) or a long-term residence permit?

Which option is better especially regarding the financial proof requirements?

Any advice or personal experience would be appreciated

Thanks

Grammar Skloňuj now has adjective & pronoun declension exercises!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

9 Upvotes

Ahoj všichni,

I'm the creator of Skloňuj — it's a site for practicing declensions that I posted about on this subreddit previously. Since then, over 200k questions have been answered, and it seems like it's been super helpful for a lot of people.

Some of you might remember me mentioning that adjective-noun agreement exercises and pronoun declension would be added soon. I actually added this a long time ago, but have been procrastinating on making this post, so here it finally is! As a side note, we also have some fun Czech cultural names as anonymous leaderboard usernames!

I'm visiting Prague in a few months and have been drilling grammar by focusing on one case on Skloňuj a week. Personally I've found this super helpful (after all, opakování je matka moudrosti!) and hopefully this will be of use to some others here as well.

Coming up next: specific decks targeting tricky points (e.g. going to locations using do / na / k, remembering verbs that pair with specific cases, numbers and which noun to use for 1 / 2-4 / 5+).

I'm thinking of adding imperfective vs perfective verb drills as well since I can never remember the perfective forms of many of the verbs I know, but that would be a lot tricker to implement so would love to hear people's thoughts on this.

Check out sklonuj.com if you haven't already, and let me know what you think or how it can be improved! Always looking for feedback on how to make it more useful!

And as always, Skloňuj will remain free to use.

Já se domnívám, že čtení, mluvení a psaní byly podobné jako v nanečisto. U poslechu ale byla slovní zásoba o něco méně známá než v nanečisto.

Private classes

Hello, everybody,

I'm a college student from Spain who's going to apply for a master's degree in Prague next year, my degree is Slavistics, although my Czech teacher is completely useless and negligent. I'm writing this post because after one month of college I've accepted the fact that this man is not suitable for preparing me for the masters (zavazující východoevropská studia) in Univerzita Kárlova and would need some private tutor who could prepare me for the admission exams and reach the needed fluency. If you know anyone from the university in Prague who could eventually help me I'd be infinitely grateful 😊

Is two years enough to learn Czech for medical school?

12 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I’m currently a beginner in Czech (A1) and considering spending two years at ÚJOP Charles University to prepare for studying medicine entirely in Czech.

Do you think two years of intensive study would be enough to reach a level where I could comfortably follow medical lectures, understand textbooks, and take exams in Czech?

I’d especially appreciate hearing from anyone who’s attended ÚJOP or learned Czech before starting university.

Living in Czechia and starting Czech from zero — what should I focus on first?

11 Upvotes

Ahoj! I'm living and working in Czechia and I've recently started learning Czech from almost zero.

My biggest problems are pronunciation and understanding spoken Czech. I want to be able to communicate in everyday situations — at work, shops, gym, post office, doctor, etc.

For those who successfully learned Czech, what helped you the most?

Should I focus mainly on grammar, vocabulary, listening, pronunciation, or speaking with Czech people?

I'm especially interested in resources that helped beginners progress toward A2/B1.

edit:-

Thank you everyone for your replies! I really appreciate your advice and support. It means a lot to me as I begin my Czech-learning journey. 🙏❤️

Díky moc! 🙏

Ahoj všem, za tři dny mám zkoušku B1. Co teď děláte vy? Opakujete gramatiku, nebo spíš cvičíte mluvení a poslech? Já jsem slabší v poslechu, takže poslouchám české YouTube videa, snažím se jim porozumět a neznámá slova hledám ve slovníku. Jinak zatím nedělám nic jiného! Díky za každý tip.

Hello people, I have been living in the Czech republic for 4 months, I am trying to learn Czech, but I am not even close to A1. I tried Duolingo, but I can't use it, anywhere so it does not make sense for me.

Can you give me any advice on what to do, what to use or something.

4 months and I know only this:

Dobrý den, jak tý?

Moj češtiny je špatně, Mluvinte anglicky?

Můžete ty pomocí

I can count to 10 and I can say that I am paying with card / cash and I want ticket for bus.

Czech Grammar explicitly textbook

4 Upvotes

Ahoj všichni! i have been studying Czech for almost a year now. And currently i am going from high a2 to low b1 level, i can speak and all (like actually pretty good for

my level) but i have problems with word order in more complex sentences, a lot of cases (specifically their plurals) and endings in nouns, so i think that putting more time into grammar exercises will help as it helped with everything else

I am seeking some grammar specific textbooks for my level with a detailed explanations of cases and just all the grammar i need to master for my current level
