The greatest language problem with which the tourist risks encounter in Lithuania - it will not be easy. Well, or make a look. Our article - how to make so that "did not do the view." The recipe is not at all complicated and very effective. Let's try?

In general, Lithuanians are benevolent and hospitable against guests of their country.

However, in contrast to Latvia, where the Russian language is extremely common, or Estonia, where most of the population (and young people are almost virtually) speaks at some level English, which makes it easy to communicate, in Lithuania it is quite realistic to face the situation that you are just They will not understand in Russian, but in English.

At the same time, the most amazing thing is that the above is fair not only in relation to the rural outback, but to quite tourist places.

What is there to go far, we ourselves were in a similar situation in Palanga, where in a restaurant on the boardwalk, the Miloid girl, the waiter could not explain in English or in Russian.

On the other hand, local resident nice when the guest at least a few words will say on his native language - This is especially true of small nations. And we recommend to learn fifteen phrases in Lithuanian, and you can be sure, a friendly smile on the face of the interlocutor is guaranteed!



Pay attention, the Lithuanian language is not characteristic of the length, so try to pronounce words at a normal pace (for Tina Kandelaki trying to keep up with nothing, but there is no need to stretch to Estonian manner).

In bold, emphasis is highlighted in words, which, as a rule, falls on the first syllable. Note that the above lithuanian phrases Several like Latvian, so, in a slightly modified form, they can be used when visiting Latvia.

Lithuanian language (Lietùvių Kalbà) - the official language of Lithuania and one of official languages European Union. On Lithuanian talks about three million people in Lithuania and about 170 thousand beyond. Refers to the Baltic Group of Indo-European Languages \u200b\u200bFamily, relatively similar to Latvian, although they are not mutually understandable.

Lithuanian is divided into two main dialects: Aukshtaitsky and Zhemaytsky (Aukštaičių IR žemaičių tarmės). They originate from the Lithuanian words "high" and "low" and denote the resettlement of their carriers relative to the flow of the Neman River. Modern literary Lithuanian language is based on a dialect of Western Aukstestes (Svaltins).
