Podcasts

Short stories and dialogues from our language courses — with transcripts and vocabulary lists (PDF).

How to use it

1. Choose a language and a level. The episodes for that pair appear below.
2. Tap any episode to open it: you get the audio, the full text, a word list and free PDFs.
3. Want to listen to many episodes in a row, hands-free? Open “Multi-listen options”. Choose “Choose from the list” and tick the episodes you like, or pick “Select unlistened episodes” or “Select all the episodes”.
4. Set how often to repeat. “Play each episode” repeats every episode back-to-back (great for beginners); “Play the whole list” repeats the whole list round after round, or non-stop (∞). You can also shuffle each round.
5. Press Play. The player stays at the bottom of the screen with previous / pause / next buttons. There is a short 4-second pause between episodes.
6. A green tick means you have already listened to an episode. Keep this page open while you listen.
