I Thought I Was Just Bad at Czech. Then I Realized THIS Was the Problem

Hey Czech learner! Do you ever think: “Maybe I’m not talented for languages…” “I’ve been learning Czech for years but still can’t speak!” “Why do I freeze in every conversation?” Let’s stop pretending it’s your fault.It’s not. And in this podcast episode, I tell you exactly why. You’ll discover the biggest problem with the way we’ve all been taught to learn languages.(Hint: it’s not about how old you are, or how many grammar books you’ve bought.) Instead of speaking Czech, most learners are just memorizing words, rules, and phrases they never actually use. That’s not connection. That’s not conversation. Here’s what you’ll hear in this episode: Why traditional Czech lessons and apps like Duolingo leave you stuck in your head How to finally break the wall between “I understand” and “I speak” 3 things you can start doing today to speak Czech naturally A mindset shift that brings real results (no perfectionism required!) You’ll also get 3 reflection prompts to understand your blockages—and rewrite your story. If you’re looking for real-life Czech, practical tips, and the confidence to say more than “Dobrý den,” this episode is for you.Let’s change the way you learn Czech—so you can finally speak the way you want.Měj se hezky, uč se česky, Eliška Prefer to listen?

Chceš taky umět vyprávět historky ze svého života? Tak poslouchej dál. Už je to několik roků, co jsem jela s manželem na Slovensko. Chtěli jsme navštívit Tatry. Tatry jsou krásné hory. Bylo už po sezóně, takže tam nebyli moc turisti. Šli jsme na túru. Turisty jsme opravdu neviděli, ale viděli jsme horská zvířata. Nejdřív jsme viděli kamzíky a muflony. To jsou horský kozy. Věděli jsme, že tam jsou i medvědi, ale nečekali jsme, že medvěda uvidíme. A potom se manžel zastavil a říká, podívej, támhle je medvěd. Nejdřív jsem mu nevěřila, ale pak jsem se podívala a uviděla jsem ho taky. Byl veliký a byl docela blízko. Asi 300 metrů a šel k nám. Nevěděla jsem, co mám dělat. Byla jsem totálně paralyzovaná.Když jsem se zeptala manžela, co mám dělat, dal mi do ruky foťák a řekl, foť. A tak jsem fotila. Medvěd o nás nevěděl. Chvíli jsme tam stáli a dívali se na něj a potom jsme šli dál. Byl to ale adrenalin. A to není všechno. Když jsme potom přišli do vesnice, museli jsme stopovat auta, protože vlák ani autobus už žádný nejel. No a koho jsme si stopli? Policajty. Z dálky jsme neviděli, že je to policejní auto a když byli blízko a už jsme věděli, že je to policie, tak už zastavovali. Takže nás domů dovezli policajti a v autě jsme jim ukazovali naše video medvěda. Nemohli tomu uvěřit. Říkali, že chodí do hor často, ale medvěda tam nikdy nepotkali. A co ty? Umíš vyprávět historky v češtině nebo ti chybí slova, když mluvíš česky? S tím ti ve slowczech rádi pomůžeme. Přidej se k nám a taky nám dej hvězdičku na Spotify a řekni o nás svým kamarádům, co se učí česky. Nás tak budeš motivovat dělat to, co děláme a kamarádům pomůžeš zlepšit si češtinu a bavit se přitom.   Mini Quiz – Test Your Czech Listening!Ready to check how well you understood Veronika’s story?Here are 5 questions. Try to answer in Czech, even with simple words. Don’t worry about mistakes—this is about real-life practice, not perfection! 1. Kam jela Veronika s manželem?A) Do AlpB) Do TaterC) Na Šumavu 2. Koho (nebo co) potkali jako první?A) MedvědaB) PoliciiC) Kamzíky a muflony 3. Jak reagoval manžel, když viděl medvěda?A) Řekl „Utíkej!“B) Zavolal policiiC) Dal Veronice foťák a řekl „Foť“ 4.

F*uck the levels. Speak Czech now!

You are not your level. You are your voice.Let’s stop pretending that levels (A1, A2, B1… blah blah) mean anything in real life.Because real-life Czech doesn’t ask, “Excuse me, are you B2 yet?” before letting you into a conversation. And yet so many Czech learners wait… wait until they feel ready. Wait for permission. Wait for confidence to magically arrive.Let’s change that.In this episode, Eliška (founder of slowczech, language rebel, and mama to two) opens up about the systematic problem with language levels—and shares 3 mindset shifts to help you:Speak Czech now, not later.Stop identifying as “a beginner” and start expressing yourself in real conversations.Join conversations that stretch you—in a way that feels safe, empowering, and fun.You’ll also hear a beautiful story from one of our immersion participants who helped a woman on the street—using imperfect, messy Czech—and felt so proud of herself.Because that’s what real progress looks like. Not a certificate. Not a level. But real-life connection. Ready to supercharge your Czech?

No a potom se mě někdo zeptá: Hele, jakej byl ten film? A já říkám ne! Hrůza, byl vo ničem. To znamená, ten film nestojí za to. Ten film byl nuda. Mně se nelíbil. Prostě podruhé už ten film vidět nechci. Byl o ničem. Další je výraz Tady hledám jednu věc. Zabít, zabít čas. Ale já nechci nikoho zabít. Zabít čas znamená, že hledám nějakou zábavu. Třeba jedu vlakem někam pryč a čekám na další spoj. Mám dvě hodiny čas a nějak chci ty dvě hodiny zabít. Chci ten čas zabít. Chci si najít nějakou zábavu.

Ale když řeknu, že mám vokno, to znamená, že najednou myšlenka je pryč. A poslední výraz, to ti řeknu situaci. Pracuju v nějaké firmě, mám šéfa a pracuju na projektu. Ale udělala jsem velkou chybu. No, a dostala jsem od šéfa čočku. To znamená čočka je tohle, to je čočka. Ale když dostanu čočku, to znamená, že někdo se na mě zlobí. Ten šéf se zlobil a křičel na mě. Byl nespokojený, protože jsem udělala chybu. To znamená dostat čočku. Tak co? Jaká fráze? Jaké slangové spojení nebo výraz se ti líbí? A je to cajk.
