| Lithuanian Out Loud 0171 Int - Ingrida; Baltos Varnos Ingrida; White Crows | Hi, this is Jack and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud where we offer the world the Lithuanian language.
Photograph: Dalia GrybauskaitÄ, President of LithuaniaPhotographer: Algirdas (Wikipedia)
Weâve already explained the Lithuanian concept of White Crows. Just as a reminder, a White Crow is a person who is different. Crows are normally black, so a white crow would stand out in a crowd. This would be maybe an outsider; someone who doesnât fit into a group of average people.
Alright! Now, here is the fourth and final episode of our series with Ingrida. Weâll play the interview question and then break it all down. Then weâll play it again and after that weâll play the entire interview with Ingrida without any breaks. If youâve been studying this series, you should be able to understand quite a bit. Here we goâ

Kaip galÄtum apibÅdinti posakÄ âBaltos varnosâ?
âBaltos varnosâ, turi omeny... âBaltos varnosâ kada sako moterys apie vyrus, ar vyrai apie moteris, ar..?
O gali bet kaip, su kuo Tau asociuojasi, Tau paÄiai â âBaltos varnosâ?
PaprasÄiausiai tos âBaltos varnosâ tai turbÅt yra tas posakis kilÄs iÅ lietuviÅ kultÅros,
na galbÅt ir iÅ kitÅ tautÅ yra, bet Åiuo atveju tai yra iÅ lietuviÅ kultÅros âBaltos varnosâ.
ReiÅkia tu kitokia, tu kitaip mÄstai, tu netaip kaip visi daro,
elgiasi...ar nori to kaip ir visi nori, tu kaÅko nori kito. Tai reiÅkia Tu jau netokia
kaip ir visos tos varnos, tai jos yra baltos. Bet iÅtikrÅjÅ tai aÅ sakyÄiau Äia daugiau lietuviÅ kultÅrai bÅdinga.
Åaunu Ingrida, aÄiÅ labai uÅ pokalbÄ.
PraÅau
Buvo labai Ädomu ir iÅtikrÅjÅ malonu pabendrauti
Labai malonu buvo atsakyti Ä Åiuos kelis klausimus

Ah, so this is Baltos Varnosâ
Baltos Varnosâ
I donât have all of the stuff we normally do; Iâll just add it later.
Thatâs okay, we can do it right now.
Baltos varnos â jos.
KodÄl ne jie?
NeÅinau.
Jos â Baltos varnos.
Itâs not fair. Itâs jos â Baltos varnos. Feminine!
Thatâs true.
Itâs all about fair.
I feel it in the air.
In the air, thatâs nice.
Kaip galÄtum apibÅdinti posakÄ âBaltos varnosâ?How could you define the expression, âWhite Crows?â
âBaltos varnosâ, turi omeny... âBaltos varnosâ kada sako moterys apie vyrus, ar vyrai apie moteris, ar..?âWhite crows,â you have in mind... âWhite crows,â what women say about men or men say about women?
O gali bet kaip, su kuo Tau asociuojasi, Tau paÄiai â âBaltos varnosâ?Oh it can be whatever, with what do you associate, âWhite Crows?â
PaprasÄiausiai tos âBaltos varnosâ tai turbÅt yra tas posakis kilÄs iÅ lietuviÅ kultÅros, Merely that, âWhite Crowsâ it presumably is that phrase from Lithuanian culture,
na galbÅt ir iÅ kitÅ tautÅ yra, bet Åiuo atveju tai yra iÅ lietuviÅ kultÅros âBaltos varnosâ. oh maybe it is from some people, but in this instance it is from Lithuanian culture âWhite Crows.â
ReiÅkia tu kitokia, tu kitaip mÄstai, tu netaip kaip visi daro, It means you are different, you think differently, you arenât like everyone,
elgiasi...ar nori to kaip ir visi nori, tu kaÅko nori kito. Tai reiÅkia Tu jau netokia demeanor...or you want something everybody wants, you want something different. This means you are not the same
kaip ir visos tos varnos, tai jos yra baltos. Bet iÅtikrÅjÅ tai aÅ sakyÄiau Äia daugiau lietuviÅ kultÅrai bÅdinga. like all these crows, they are white. But really that I would say here more a Lithuanian cultural characteristic.
Åaunu Ingrida, aÄiÅ labai uÅ pokalbÄ.Great Ingrida, thank you very much for your conversation.

Hi there, Iâm Jack and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud where we offer the world the Lithuanian language.
Today weâll continue with the interviews Raminta made at a Lithuanian party with Ingrida. This will be part three. The last episode with Ingrida, part IV, will probably be our next podcast. In the background you can hear lots of frogs in a nearby pond, music and people talking. In this interview Raminta is asking Ingrida another question. Keep in mind Ingrida has no idea what Raminta is going to ask her.
As I record this introduction, Raminta is in Istanbul, Turkey. Raminta and I recorded this episode quickly just before she left. Now, on with Ingridaâs thoughts. Enjoy!

Kokie tau yra trys svarbiausi kriterijai vyre, kurie turÄtÅ bÅti? Ar charakterio savybÄs, ar...Na pirmiausia tai vÄlgi aÅ pasakyÄiau yra protas.Protas?Protas, protas ir dar kartÄ protas. Ir viskas tame pasakyta. Vyras turi bÅti protingas. Jis bus protingas, jis bus mielas, jis bus iÅradingas, jis bus visu tuo ko tau reikia. Åinoma jeigu tu bÅsi tam tikro lygio su juo. ÅiÅrint kokio tau vyro proto reikia, Äia nuo tavÄs irgi asmeniÅkai priklauso.Ir toks dabar klausimas Äia, gal iÅtikrÅjÅ pamÄstymui daugiau, kas tau svarbiausia gyvenime?Supratimas kito Åmogaus, vertinimas, pagarba. Gal netgi sakyÄiau pagarba pirmoj vietoj. Nes jeigu tu gerbsi ÅmogÅ, tu jÄ suprasi, tu jÄ vertinsi.Netgi jeigu tu klaidÅ padarysi gyvenime tas Åmogus tau atleis paprasÄiausiaiTodÄl, kad jis suprasTodÄl, kad jis supras, Åinoma tu neturi tuo naudotis

Alright, now letâs translate the conversation and then weâll break down many of the words and use them in examples.
---
Kokie tau yra trys svarbiausi kriterijai vyre, kurie turÄtÅ bÅti? Ar charakterio savybÄs, ar...What for you are the three most important criteria in a man, he would have, or characteristic feature, or...
Na pirmiausia tai vÄlgi aÅ pasakyÄiau yra protas.Oh, first of all that again I would say is intellect.
Protas?Intellect?
Protas, protas ir dar kartÄ protas. Intellect, intellect and once more intellect.
Ir viskas tame pasakyta. And therein is said everything.
Vyras turi bÅti protingas. A man has to be intelligent.
Jis bus protingas, jis bus mielas, jis bus iÅradingas, jis bus visu tuo ko tau reikia. He will be intelligent, he will be nice, he will be inventive, he will be everything that you need.
Åinoma jeigu tu bÅsi tam tikro lygio su juo. Of course if you will be at the same level with him.
ÅiÅrint kokio tau vyro proto reikia, Äia nuo tavÄs irgi asmeniÅkai priklauso.It depends what manâs intelligence you need, this also depends personally on you.
Ir toks dabar klausimas Äia, gal iÅtikrÅjÅ pamÄstymui daugiau, kas tau svarbiausia gyvenime?And now such a question here perhaps really to think some more, what to you is most important in life?
Supratimas kito Åmogaus, vertinimas, pagarba. Understanding the other person, appreciation, respect.
Gal netgi sakyÄiau pagarba pirmoj vietoj. Nes jeigu tu gerbsi ÅmogÅ, tu jÄ suprasi, tu jÄ vertinsi.Even though, I would say respect in the first place. Because if you will respect a person, you will understand him, you will appreciate him.
Netgi jeigu tu klaidÅ padarysi gyvenime tas Åmogus tau atleis paprasÄiausiai.Even if you will make some mistakes in life that person will simply forgive you.
TodÄl, kad jis supras.Therefore, he will understand.
TodÄl, kad jis supras, Åinoma tu neturi tuo naudotis.Accordingly, he will understand you, of course, you donât need to take advantage of it.

| Lithuanian Out Loud 0164 Beg - Varinis Pinigas A Copper Coin | Varinis Pinigas A Copper CoinHi there, Iâm Raminta and Iâm Jack and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud where we offer the world the Lithuanian language.
Photograph: AukÅtojas Hill, LithuaniaPhotographer: TomaÅ StaÅevskij (Wikipedia)
According to Wikipedia, Lithuanians had traditionally thought JuozapinÄ Hill was the highest point in Lithuania. In fact, it is only the third highest point. The highest point is AukÅtojas Hill in the Medininkai Highlands, approximately 24 kilometers (15 miles) southeast of the capital city of Vilnius.
Today weâll do a quick introduction to many new adjectives. In this episode weâll pick an adjective and then weâll combine the adjective with a masculine singular noun, a feminine singular noun, a plural masculine noun, a plural feminine noun and finally the neuter adjective, if there is one.
Some of the adjective endings youâll see in this episode are âinis or âinÄ. This can be used to describe something that is made of a type of metal, material, substance, etcetera. For example, copper â varis, coppery or âof copperâ â varinis. A copper coin â varinis pinigas. Fur â kailis. Furry or âmade of furâ â kailinis. A furry coat â kailinis paltas.
While creating this episode it got to be so long we decided to chop it into four parts. Here is part one of practice with adjectives.
Ready? Here we go!

| Lithuanian Out Loud 0162 Beg - Lediniai Tiltai Icy Bridges | Lediniai Tiltai Icy BridgesHi there, Iâm Jack and Iâm Raminta and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud where we offer the world the Lithuanian language.
English: Battle of Grunwald by Jan MatejkoLietuviÅ: Åalgirio mÅÅis Jano Mateikos paveikslasThe picture supposedly illustrates the moment when Ulrich von Jungingen, the 26th Grand Master of the Teutonic Order (left, dressed in white, with a black cross), is killed by infantry. Vytautas the Great is shown in triumphant position (center, dressed in red).
On 15 July 1410 Lithuanian soldiers fought in the Battle of Grunwald. The German Teutonic Knights never could get on well with Lithuanians. The Pope in Rome had given the Teutonic Knights carte blanche to invade and conquer Lithuanian and Prussian lands. The Prussians were linguistic and cultural cousins of the Lithuanians. In 1385 Grand Duke Jogaila of Lithuania married Queen Jadwiga of Poland. A few years later in 1409 the Teutonic Knights were trying to control an uprising in a territory they controlled â Samogitia or Åemaitija.
Lithuanian Grand Duke Jogaila, who was now by marriage the King of Poland declared that if the Teutonic Germans invaded Lithuania it would mean war. The Teutonic Knights said this was a provocation and declared war.
Since Grand Duke Jogaila was now the King of Poland, he gave control of Lithuania to Vytautas the Great.
On the 2nd of July 1410 Vytautas the Great of Lithuania and King Jogaila of Poland joined their armies and crossed into Teutonic territory headed for the German castle at Marienburg. The Germans were caught completely by surprise.
The German and Lithuanian-Polish forces faced off and fought for many hours. The Germans were slaughtered and the Lithuanian-Polish armies were victorious.
The battle was fought on the plains of Grunwald or in Lithuanian â Åalgiris. The battle is known in Lithuania as Åalgirio mÅÅis. MÅÅis is the word for battle. Today Åalgiris is a symbol of resistance to foreign domination over Lithuania.
The leading Lithuanian basketball and football teams are called BC Åalgiris and FK Åalgiris to commemorate the battle.

Hi there, Iâm Jack and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud where we offer the world the Lithuanian language. Today weâll start a new series called Lithuanian Out Loud Chat. In this episode I sat down with Raminta and Antanas. Antanas is a native of Vilnius, Lithuania. In this chat series I toss out a phrase in English and I ask our native speakers to translate and discuss the phrase. Keep in mind, they have no idea what Iâm going to ask them. Thanks a million Antanai for coming on the show, it was very gracious of you. But, before we get started, hereâs a message from a listener, Charles from Brazil. Thanks Charles for sending us these comments and please send us an email, weâd love to hear from you. So, hereâs Charles and then todayâs episode. Enjoy!

| Lithuanian Out Loud 0156 Adv - Buvau Jaunas I Was Young | Hey there, Iâm Jack and Iâm Raminta and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud where we offer the world the Lithuanian language. Today we have a special recording that a listener sent us. This is a story from Jonas who wanted to tell us about his days as a young man in 1969. First we'll play his recording for you and then weâll translate it and break some of it down.
Photograph: A windmill near DarbÄnai, LithuaniaPhotographer: Julius (Wikipedia)
So, here is Jonas with a short story about his youth!
TÅkstantis devyni Åimtai ÅeÅiasdeÅimt devintaisiais metais buvau jaunas ir graÅus, man buvo devyniolika metÅ. Studijuoti aukÅtÄjÄ mokslÄ noro nebuvo, tuo metu buvau baigÄs vidurinÄ mokyklÄ, vienuolika klasiÅ.

Well, now we see how Jonas entered the army. Maybe someday heâll tell us about his experiences as a soldier beginning in 1969.
Okay, great, now letâs go over the story again with a translation... TÅkstantis devyni Åimtai ÅeÅiasdeÅimt devintaisiais metais buvau jaunas ir graÅus, man buvo devyniolika metÅ.
In 1969 I was young and handsome, I was 19 years old.
Studijuoti aukÅtÄjÄ mokslÄ noro nebuvo,
To study high education I didnât wish,
tuo metu buvau baigÄs vidurinÄ mokyklÄ, vienuolika klasiÅ.
at that time I had finished high school, eleven grades.
Kadangi aukÅtesnÄs pakopos mokslai netraukÄ,
Because higher grades didnât attract me,
o tais senais sovietiniais laikais buvo privaloma karinÄ tarnyba,
and in these old Soviet times military service was compulsory,
aÅ buvau nusiteikÄs du savo gyvenimo metus atiduoti tarybinei armijai.
I was set to surrender two years of my life to the Soviet Army.
Kareiviu bÅti nenorÄjau, bet tais laikais buvo tokios taisyklÄs kuriÅ reikÄjo laikytis.
I didnât want to be a soldier, but in those times there were rules which you needed to follow.
Tuo metu aÅ dirbau cemento gamykloje prie tekinimo stakliÅ, darbas nebuvo nei mielas, nei sunkus.
At that time I was working in a cement factory next to a lathe machine, the job wasnât pleasant nor hard.
Prie bet kokiÅ santvarkÅ pasaulyje, aiÅku, reikia dirbti, turÄti pajamÅ pragyvenimui.
Whatever system in the world, clearly, you need to work, you have to have income to live.
PlanÅ ateiÄiai, galima sakyti, neturÄjau.
Future plans, I can say, I didnât have.
Taigi, gavÄs pakvietimÄ iÅ karinio komisariato, pradÄjau ruoÅtis sovietinio kareivio tarnybai.
So, when I got an invitation from the Soviet Commissariat, I started to get ready for Soviet soldier service.
Tais laikais SovietÅ SÄjunga pagal teritorijÄ buvo labai didelÄ.
These times the Soviet Union, as far as territory goes, was very large.
Niekas iÅ ÅauktiniÅ, iÅskyrus dideliÅ virÅininkÅ vaikus, neÅinojo Ä kokÄ regionÄ gali papulti atlikti karinÄ prievolÄ.
Nobody from the conscripts, except high commanderâs children, knew to what region they might be stationed for military duty.
Tuo metu man nebuvo svarbu kur atliksiu karinÄ tarnybÄ nors, tiesÄ sakant,
At that time it wasnât important to me where I would do military duty but frankly speaking,
truputÄ bijojau pakliÅti Ä jÅrÅ skyriÅ, kadangi jÅreivio tarnyba tÄsÄsi trejus metus.
I was a little afraid to get into the sea department, because a sailorâs service continued for three years.
Man tuometinÄ darbovietÄ surengÄ labai dideles iÅleistuves: didÅiulis, gausiai, valgiais ir degtine, nukrautas stalas.
The then workplace that I worked at arranged a very large farewell party: big, full, dishes and vodka, a loaded table.
AÅ nebuvau svaigalÅ mÄgÄjas, bet per Åias iÅleistuves teko nemaÅai iÅgerti.
I wasnât a strong drinks amateur but by way of that farewell party I drank not a little.
Pamenu, jog baigiantis vakarÄliui ÄmÄ svaigti galva ir aÅ nustojau gerti pildamas degtinÄ Ä vazonÄ su didele gÄle.
I remember at the end of the evening my head began to whirl and I stopped drinking by pouring vodka into a big flower pot.
Ne visai vÄlÅ vakarÄ grÄÅau namo.
Not very late in the evening I came back home.
Mama, taip pat buvo suruoÅusi iÅleistuves.
Mother as well had arranged a farewell party.
Namuose manÄs laukÄ giminÄs iÅ kaimo.
at home for me were waiting my relatives from the country.
mamos brolis Kazys su Åmona, keli draugai ir kaimynai.
My motherâs brother Kazys with his wife, a few friends and neighbors.
Kadangi buvau nemenkai prisivaiÅinÄs, Åiek tiek pavakarojus nuÄjau miegoti, o rytojaus dienÄ turÄjau prisistatyti kariniam komisariate.
Because I was not a little filled up, a little partying (and) I went to sleep and the next day I needed to report to the military commissariat.
Okay, now letâs break down a few of the words and phrases in this story.

| Lithuanian Out Loud 0155 Beg - Ledinis Tvenkinys An Icy Pond | Hi there, Iâm Jack and Iâm Raminta and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud where we offer the world the Lithuanian language.

According to Wikipedia, the Nemunas is a major Eastern European river beginning in Belarus and flowing through Lithuania before draining into the Curonian Lagoon and then into the Baltic Sea at KlaipÄda. The Nemunas marks the border between Lithuania and Russia's Kaliningrad Oblast. It is the 14th largest river in Europe, the largest in Lithuania and the 3rd largest in Belarus, it is navigable for most of its 900-kilometer length.
Today weâll start to learn how to use Lithuanian adjectives. An adjective is a word that modifies a noun. For example, a car is a noun. What kind of car is it? We need an adjective to describe this noun. The car is expensive. Expensive is an adjective. An expensive car. A red car. An old car. A fast car.
Lithuanian adjectives can be masculine, feminine or neuter. Masculine adjectives are combined with masculine nouns and feminine adjectives are combined with feminine nouns. The neuter is used when youâre referring to something inspecific.
Additionally, adjectives are plural when combined with plural nouns. For today weâll just focus on singular nouns combined with singular adjectives.
Lithuanian adjectives normally preceed the noun.Lithuanian adjectives are the only place youâll see the neuter in Lithuanian.Lithuanian adjectives agree with the gender, number and case of the noun - except when you use the neuter.
Lithuanian adjectives have three basic endings; the first, -as or âa, the second, -us or âu, and the third, -is or âÄ.
the first group -as or âa has three genders â masculine, feminine and neuterthe neuter has no case and no numberyou use the neuter when youâre talking about something not identifiedyou donât combine nouns with neutral adjectives because nouns donât have a neutral formyouâll see what we mean as we go through the next few episodesthe plural of âas changes to âi, the plural of -a changes to âosbut on this episode weâre only concerned with the singular forms
here are examples of âas and âasmall maÅas / maÅasoft minkÅtas / minkÅtahard kietas / kieta
the neuter form of this group ends in âamaÅaminkÅtakieta
the second group -us or âi has three genders â masculine, feminine and neuterthe neuter has no case and no numberthe plural of âus changes to âÅs, the plural of -i changes to âioson this episode weâre only concerned with the singular forms
here are examples of âus and âiclean Åvarus / Åvaricheap pigus / pigiexpensive brangus / brangi
the neuter form of this group ends in âu Åvarupigubrangu
the third group -is or âÄ has only two genders â masculine and femininethis group doesnât have a neuter formthe plural of âis changes to âiai, the plural of -Ä changes to âÄs
here are examples of âis and âÄicy ledinis / ledinÄsilky Åilkinis / ÅilkinÄsynthetic sintetinis / sintetinÄ
neuter form: none
The singular masculine adjectives end in âas âus or âis. Only âas and âus have a neuter ending.The singular feminine adjectives end in âa âi or âÄ. Only âa and âi can have a neuter ending.
Now letâs go through some examples so this makes more sense.

| Lithuanian Out Loud 0148 Int - Gyvenimas Puikus Kaune Life Is Excellent In Kaunas | Hi there, Iâm Raminta and Iâm Jack and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud where we offer the world the Lithuanian language.
According to a Los Angeles Times article of September 2005, a Russian SU-27 flying from St. Petersburg to Kaliningrad went off course, flew over Lithuania, the pilot ejected and the plane crashed into an empty Lithuanian field. Everything about this story is bizarre. Russian authorities initially claimed the plane was unarmed but in fact it had air-to-air missiles and a canon. Why did the aircraft fly over 120 miles into Lithuania? Why did the pilot turn off his radar beacon? Why did he fly low to the ground under Lithuanian radar? Nothing about the incident makes sense. Soon after the crash Lithuanian Air Force Commander Colonel Jonas Marcinkus was fired from his post for some phone calls he made to Russian military officers. Some analysts have suggested the aircraft was testing Lithuanian defenses for a hypothetical Russian war with Poland and Lithuania.

According to the Wikipedia page entitled, Rimantas Antanas StankeviÄius, on 9 September 1990, Lithuanian pilot Rimantas Antanas StankeviÄius died while performing at an airshow in Treviso, Italy. He was flying an SU-27 high-performance jet and after performing a loop the aircraft was lower than it should have been. Rimantas could have ejected safely but the unpiloted aircraft might then have smashed into the crowds of people watching the show. Rimantas chose to stay with the aircraft to ensure it crashed clear of the spectators. Rimantas was not only a first-class test pilot but also the first Lithuanian astronaut who flew the Buran Space Shuttle prototype. He was born in MariampolÄ, Lithuania and was buried in Kaunas, Lithuania. He was 46 years-old.

According to Radio Vilnius: News & Current AffairsLithuania has the third lowest birthrate in Europe and Lithuania makes the list of the ten nations worldwide with the lowest birthrates. Naturally itâs difficult for parents to combine childcare with work and daycare isnât easy to find. Lithuania has the longest maternity leave coverage in the world. The childcare giver receives two years off work with full pay supplied by the Lithuanian government.

Photograph: Yotvingian ForestPhotographer: Przemyslaw 'Blueshade' Idzkiewicz
According to the free Wikipedia page Romuva; The Quendlinburg Chronicle mentions a missionary Bruno of Querfort, who was killed along with 18 men by Yotvingians because of entering The Holy Forest. This was the first time the name of Lithuania was mentioned in written sources. Lithuanians came to history as very conservative believers of an ancient European pre-Christian faith, they preserved this religion until the 14th and 15th centuries. They happened to be the last non-nomadic people in Europe practicing pristine Indo-European polytheism.
In the 13th century Pope Gregory IX declared crusades against the Baltic peoples. This led to the destruction of the Baltic faith. Grand Duke Mindaugas was Christianized with his family and warriors in 1251 to get recognition from Christian Europe. But, Mindaugas still worshipped pagan deities as the Hyperian Chronicle mentions. He sacrificed to the Supreme God Andajus or Dievas, PerkÅnas, Teliavelis, the god of blacksmiths, and ÅvorÅna, goddess of forests and hunters.
Today weâll go over the Lithuanian verb galÄti â to be able. Here are galÄti and negalÄti conjugated in the present tense.

According to the Wikipedia page entitled, Russians in Lithuania, most of the present-day Russians in Lithuania are migrants from the Soviet era and their descendants.
In Lithuania, Russian emmigration was resisted. In Latvia and Estonia, less was done to stop it. By 1989 Russians made up 30% of the population in Estonia, while in Latvia, ethnic Latvians made up just 52% of the population. In contrast, in the last Soviet census in 1989, only 9 percent of Lithuania's population were ethnic Russians.
Russians who reside in Lithuania live mainly in urban areas. In Vilnius they make up 13% of the population, and 20% in KlaipÄda. Kaunas has just 4% ethnic Russians. The town of Visaginas was built for workers at the Ignalina nuclear power plant and therefore has an ethnic Russian majority of 55%.
Alright, here is the first in a series of conversations Raminta recorded at a barbecue party. In the background of these recordings you can hear music from the party, insects, frogs, dogs and passing cars. These conversations are relaxed, spontaneous and unscripted. First, youâll hear the conversation between Raminta and Ingrida and then weâll break it down using some examples. Then at the end weâll play the conversation again. Enjoy! Enjoy!Viskasâ.Labas vakaras, Ingrida!
Labas vakaras, Raminta!

Raminta:Moterys? KodÄl taip manot?Women? Why do you think so?
Ingrida:TodÄl, kad jos gali pasiekti daugiau negu vyrai kartais, jos yra iÅradingesnÄs, subtilesnÄs, jautresnÄs, ÄdomesnÄs daugumoje, aiÅku yra ir vyrÅ ÄdomiÅ, na ir daug daugiau tÅ privalumÅ yra iÅtikrÅjÅ, tik reikia bÅti moteriai protingai, protas nugali viskÄ.Because they can achieve more than men sometimes, they are more inventive, more subtle, more sensitive, more interesting in the majority, clearly there are interesting men, and there are many more qualities to tell the truth, only itâs necessary for women to be clever, intelligence conquers all.

| Lithuanian Out Loud 0139 Beg - Esu Belgas I Am Belgian | Hi there, this is Jack and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud. On previous episodes Raminta and I went over the nationalities of some of our listeners. We named the countries, named nationalities and drank toasts to the countries. Since then weâve added many listeners from many nations around the world. Today we want to catch up our listeners from these nations by doing the same for them. Just so you know, we recorded this a few weeks ago and since then some more listeners in other nations joined us. So, we pasted some more recordings into this episode. Because of that the audio might sound a little bit odd here and there but, hey, what are you gonna do? Enjoy!

Hi there, Iâm Jack and Iâm Raminta and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud where we offer the world the Lithuanian language.
Today weâre in the month of December which in Lithuanian isâgruodis.
Why is 16 February Lithuanian Independence Day? The Act of Independence was signed by the Council of Lithuania 16 February 1918. It was during World War I and German troops were still in control of Lithuania. The German Empire prohibited the printing of the Act in Lithuanian newspapers. After Germany lost World War I, Lithuania established its independence for the first time in the 20th Century. Of course, after the Soviet Union invaded and occupied Lithuania in 1944, Lithuanians had to wait until 11 March 1990 to declare independence again.
pradÄkime, letâs get started
If we leave off any nationalities youâd like to see here, just let us know. Here are the names of some countries in Lithuanian.
China KinijaKenya KenijaIndonesia IndonezijaNigeria NigerijaAngola AngolaPortugal PortugalijaCroatia KroatijaFrance PrancÅzijaMexico MeksikaSpain IspanijaBelgium BelgijaMalaysia MalaizijaSweden ÅvedijaGermany VokietijaJapan JaponijaVenezuela VenesuelaFinland SuomijaNorway NorvegijaIraq IrakasTurkey TurkijaDenmark DanijaRomania RumunijaSwitzerland Åveicarija
Now letâs say, for example, Iâm from Kenya or Iâm from Indonesia.
Iâm from China aÅ iÅ KinijosIâm from Kenya aÅ iÅ KenijosIâm from Indonesia aÅ iÅ IndonezijosIâm from Nigeria aÅ iÅ NigerijosIâm from Angola aÅ iÅ AngolosIâm from Portugal aÅ iÅ PortugalijosIâm from Croatia aÅ iÅ KroatijosIâm from France aÅ iÅ PrancÅzijosIâm from Mexico aÅ iÅ MeksikosIâm from Spain aÅ iÅ IspanijosIâm from Belgium aÅ iÅ BelgijosIâm from Malaysia aÅ iÅ MalaizijosIâm from Sweden aÅ iÅ ÅvedijosIâm from Germany aÅ iÅ VokietijosIâm from Japan aÅ iÅ JaponijosIâm from Venezuela aÅ iÅ VenesuelosIâm from Finland aÅ iÅ SuomijosIâm from Norway aÅ iÅ NorvegijosIâm from Iraq aÅ iÅ IrakoIâm from Turkey aÅ iÅ TurkijosIâm from Denmark aÅ iÅ DanijosIâm from Romania aÅ iÅ RumunijosIâm from Switzerland aÅ iÅ Åveicarijos
Now weâll describe our nationality such as I am Croatian or I am Portuguese, etcetera.Of course, we can drop the verb bÅti, to be, or in this case, esu. We can also drop aÅ and just keep esu. Here weâll say the male version first, the female version second.
Iâm Chinese aÅ kinasIâm Chinese aÅ kinÄIâm Kenyan aÅ esu kenietisIâm Kenyan aÅ esu kenietÄIâm Indonesian aÅ esu indonezietisIâm Indonesian aÅ esu indonezietÄIâm Nigerian aÅ nigerietisIâm Nigerian aÅ nigerietÄIâm Angolan aÅ angolietisIâm Angolan aÅ angolietÄIâm Portuguese aÅ portugalasIâm Portuguese aÅ portugalÄIâm Croatian aÅ kroatasIâm Croatian aÅ kroatÄI am French aÅ prancÅzasI am French aÅ prancÅzÄIâm Mexican aÅ meksikietisIâm Mexican aÅ meksikietÄIâm Spanish aÅ ispanasIâm Spanish aÅ ispanÄIâm Belgian esu belgasIâm Belgian esu belgÄIâm Malaysian esu malaizietisIâm Malaysian esu malaizietÄI am Swedish esu ÅvedasI am Swedish esu ÅvedÄIâm German esu vokietisIâm German esu vokietÄIâm Japanese esu japonasIâm Japanese esu japonÄIâm Venezuelan aÅ venesualietisIâm Venezuelan aÅ venesualietÄIâm Finnish aÅ suomisIâm Finnish aÅ suomÄIâm Norwegian aÅ norvegasIâm Norwegian aÅ norvegÄIâm Iraqi aÅ irakietisIâm Iraqi aÅ irakietÄIâm Danish aÅ danasIâm Danish aÅ danÄIâm Turkish aÅ turkasIâm Turkish aÅ turkÄIâm Romanian aÅ rumunasIâm Romanian aÅ rumunÄIâm Swiss aÅ ÅveicarasIâm Swiss aÅ ÅveicarÄ
Now letâs go over some of the languages spoken in these countriesâ
Chinese kinÅ kalbaSwahili suaheliÅ kalbaIndonesian indonezÅ kalbaPortuguese portugalÅ kalbaSpanish ispanÅ kalbaCroatian kroatÅ kalbaFrench prancÅzÅ kalbaDutch olandÅ kalbaMalaysian malajÅ kalbaSwedish ÅvedÅ kalbaGerman vokieÄiÅ kalbaJapanese japonÅ kalbaFinnish suomiÅ kalbaNorwegian norvegÅ kalbaArabic arabÅ kalbaTurkish turkÅ kalbaDanish danÅ kalbaRomanian rumunÅ kalba
Now letâs learn how to toast these nations over drinksâ

| Lithuanian Out Loud 0138 Int - Gyvenimas Puikus Life Is Excellent | Hi there, this is Jack and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud. Today weâre in a new month! In Latin Decem means ten. December was the tenth month in the old Roman calendar. Later, when January and February were added it became the 12th month but retained its old name. In Lithuanian this month is gruodis from the word gruodas which roughly translates as âfrozen mud clod.â In this month the mud choked dirt roads are made passable again as the ground freezes.

According to a Baltic Times article entitled, âCity of Women,â there are 20% more women in Vilnius, Lithuania than men. This is due to suicides, alcoholism, and men going to other countries to find work. The article also states Lithuania has the highest number of road fatalities of all European countries.

Just a few hours ago Kristina and I recorded this episode using Skype. Naturally, since weâre using Skype, you wonât hear the crisp, clean audio youâre used to, but I think everything is perfectly understandable.
So, Kristina, thanks again for coming on the show and good luck with your video series. Now, on with this episode covering the verbs norÄti and nenorÄti. Enjoy!

Hi there, Iâm Jack and Iâm Kristina and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud where we offer the world the Lithuanian language. Today weâre in the month of November which in Lithuanian is lapkritis.
According to the Wikipedia page, Vigilant/Kudirka Incident, on 23 November 1970, Simonas or "Simas" Kudirka, a Soviet seaman of Lithuanian nationality, leapt from the 400-foot or 120 meter ship Sovetskaya Litva, anchored in American waters near Aquinnah, Massachusetts, onto the USS Vigilant.
Kudirka saw this as a chance to ask for asylum and flee from the Soviet Union to the United States. The Captain of the American ship, Commander Ralph Eustis didnât know what to do and he contacted headquarters when the Soviets demanded that Kudirka be returned to their ship. The Russians claimed Kudirka had stolen 3,000 rubles from their shipâs safe. This was a common tactic of Russian ships in situations like this.
After ten hours had passed Rear Admiral William B. Ellis ordered Commander Ralph Eustis to permit a KGB detachment to board the Vigilant to return Kudirka to the Soviet ship. What followed was a ridiculous and shameful incident where the KGB boarded a U.S. warship and chased Simonas Kudirka up and down the ship while Kudirka pleaded with any American he found for help. At one point a KGB agent grabbed an axe from a bulkhead intending to use it on Kudirka. An American sailor grabbed the axe and wouldnât let him have it.
Eventually, the KGB caught Simonas, beat him to a pulp, handcuffed him and dragged him off the American ship and back onto the Soviet ship.
This led to a change in asylum policy by the United States. Admiral Ellis and his chief of staff were punished for their actions by the military. Commander Eustis was reprimanded and assigned to shore duty. Kudirka was tried for treason by the Soviet Union and given a ten-year sentence in a Gulag.
An award-winning book detailing the incident, Day of Shame, by Algis RukÅenas, was published in 1973. The book helped spur further investigations into the incident that eventually led to Kudirka's release by the Soviets.
The incident was portrayed in a 1978 television movie, The Defection of Simas Kudirka, with Alan Arkin playing Kudirka and Donald Pleasence playing the captain of the Soviet ship.

Many of the verbs weâve gone over in previous episodes require the accusative case or galininkas. NorÄti is different. NorÄti requires the genitive case and nenorÄti also requires the genitive case. NorÄti is the Lithuanian verb â to want, to like, to wish, to desire.
