Contexto cultural
Slovenians often speak 3-4 languages. Studying languages is seen as a highly practical and respected career path. The 'Filozofska fakulteta' in Ljubljana is the most famous place to 'študirati jezike'. It has a long history of resistance against Germanization. Many Slovenian language students aim for jobs in Brussels as translators or interpreters for the EU. During the 19th century, studying the Slovenian language was a political act of national awakening.
