Slovak · Slovenčina · AI speaking partner
Slovak, spoken, not just understood.
Slovak is learned by people who moved for work (Bratislava, Košice, the car plants), by partners, and by Czech speakers who want to stop sounding Czech. Few courses exist; fewer teach you to speak.
Your AI partner talks with you in Slovak every day, corrects the ending or the vowel length on screen, and keeps the conversation going at your pace.
Slovenčina
Unlock your Slovak fluency
Speak from day one. Real conversations, corrected out loud.
Why Slovak is hard to speak
What stops learners talking, and what fixes it.
Six cases and the soft endings
"V Bratislave", "do Bratislavy", "s Bratislavou": the ending carries the meaning. Learned in sentences about your own life, corrected as you go.
Long and short vowels
"Dĺžeň" changes the word: "sud" (barrel) and "súd" (court). The ear learns the length by hearing itself corrected.
Not Czech
Czech speakers understand Slovak and say it with Czech words and Czech endings. Each slip is caught on screen.

Questions
Before you start speaking Slovak
Is Slovak the same as Czech?
Close relatives, mutually understood, and different in sound, vocabulary and some grammar. Learning one makes the other easy to follow; speaking either well takes its own practice.
Can I practise for a job in Slovakia?
Yes. The job interview and business scenes run in formal Slovak, and the daily coach can stay in the workplace register if you ask.
Are the corrections explained in my own language?
Yes. You choose the language you already speak at setup (English, Urdu, Hindi, Arabic and 50 more), and explanations in Start from Zero and Word Mode come in it while the practice stays in Slovak.
Is Slovak practice free?
