Join me as I ask Dovilė ( / lithuanian_with_dovile ) about some of the patterns I see in the Lithuanian language. From endings for specific occupations to brand names becoming generic terms, I learned a few interesting things about the language (that I'm still learning to speak fluently)!

As long as you continue to live in Vilnius where there are a lot of English speakers, your journey to learn Lithuanian will take longer than if you had no choice but to speak Lithuanian. If you lived in a more rural area, far from Vilnius or Kaunas, and in a smaller village, your journey to fluent Lithuanian would be much faster.

If you find the "citrinų limonadas" interesting, you will find "kojų rankšluostis" mind blowing ;)

-ine works with nouns. Ligonine=ligon(is)+ine - sick person place. Kavine=kav(a)+ine - coffee place. -ykla works with verbs. Kepykla=kep(ti)+ykla - baking place. Valgykla=valgy(ti)+ykla - eating place.

Your pronunciation is coming along very nicely man, you're doing well. Miegoninė sounds so goofy actually, cracked me up. 😄 Keep up your good work and have a great Christmas! 🎅 By the way your thumbnails like this are a banger. 😄

There are more Lithuanian words that use popular brand names for common things made by other brands. For example "parkeris" for fountain pen, "džipas" for SUV car, vazelinas for "lip balm", "fotošopas" for any photo editing app.

Nice. Miegoninė sounds beautiful and skristykla sounds even better than (oro oustas) that we use now. :)
@manometras
@manometras 5 месяцев назад
Skridykla or better skraidykla would be the correct way to make that word. Mokyti - to teach. The -ti is like the to, and you take it away to make mokykla (a school). Mokykla is made from the word mokė (taught). If you would make a word for a school like sktisti > skristykla, when you would make mokytykla from mokyti.

Your Lithuanian is much better than in your last Lithuanian language learning video! You pronounce Lithuanian very technically correctly which makes me think you don't just simply say the way you feel is right but you actually make an effort to pronounce it the way it should be pronounced, if that explanation makes sense... Please publish more LT lang. learning videos! Ačiū! Sėkmės!

As soon as you speak more and use it more. It will hopefully start to make sense. The logic and feel behind the language will maybe start to fall in place over more time. Just watching this as a litho is crazy as I can imagine how confusing it must be for you. You seem to be doing great though. Huge respect.

So the thing you are discussing here is mostly priesaga or suffix. In Lithuanian words follow prefix, root, suffix, ending. In primary school we had exercises to make up words using suffixes. People can understand made-up words, because Lithuanian has simple rules. It's the spelling and commas that kill you.

it was nice video i can say about my language keep up good work and keep learning and one thing i can say about lithuanian once you understand it more you will notice how similar it is to english language and other ones but of crouse it won't be same way to say it but meaning and phase is pity much very similar, one of many reason why i personaly have easy time with english and many other lithuanian people who speak well atleast i think in that way like some common words are similar to english like internet = internetas and other ones that came from western world stuff are just english word or english similar word + some lithuanian classic ending like one of common i can think of is -as for example words similar computer = komputeris , television = televizija , pc games = kompiuteriniai zaidimai , memes = memai (not so much common in way to say but used sometimes as we use other word to say same thing but you can use it and people who speak english will understand) , freezer = šaldiklis (well it isn't so similar but point is we also use word like cold or to freeze something from base word + some ending to say what device does and call it in that way) , zebra = zebras you get point there is alot of similar words that came from english and stay in lithuanian language / change tiny bit to sound lithuanian and to be more native way to say it once you understand word more you will similarity between language's

pretty sure iškės comes from polish ('iszki') which would explain why these names are mainly found around the vilnius region. im not a linguist or anything but it's just a pattern i've noticed.

As lithuanian I can say we really have much more of " international " words than you probably know Almost entire sections of the letters C, F and H in lithuanian dictionary are from other languages... And it happened long ago, long before Lithuania regained her independence the second time...
