Lithuanian Out Loud 0096 - Penkios Moterys Five Women
from LITHUANIAN OUT LOUD
Hi there, I'm Raminta and I'm Jack and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud. One fascinating location in Vilnius, Lithuania is the Green Bridge or Žaliasis tiltas not far from Pilies gatvė in the old town or senamiestis. There are four old Soviet statues on the bridge, two on the north end, two on the south end. Each statue has a unique theme, peace, youth, agriculture and industry. It's a great place for a photo. pradėkime, let's get started Today we do unusual plural nouns. Remember masculine nouns have to be matched to masculine numbers and feminine nouns have to be matched to feminine numbers. sūnus is the Lithuanian word for son and it's a masculine noun a son sūnus one son vienas sūnus two sons du sūnūs three sons trys sūnūs five sons penki sūnūs eight sons aštuoni sūnūs žmogus is the Lithuanian word for person and it's a masculine noun a person žmogus one person vienas žmogus two people du žmonės three people trys žmonės six people šeši žmonės nine people devyni žmonės The word for uncle is unusual – dėdė. This word looks feminine because it has a feminine ending but it's masculine. an uncle dėdė one uncle vienas dėdė two uncles du dėdės six uncles šeši dėdės four uncles keturi dėdės three uncles trys dėdės stotis is the word for station, as in bus station or train station. This noun is unusual because it ends in the letter –s which makes it look masculine but it's feminine. the station stotis one station viena stotis two stations dvi stotys three stations trys stotys nine stations devynios stotys four stations keturios stotys moteris is the Lithuanian word for woman, it's unusual because it ends in the letter –s and it's feminine the woman moteris one woman viena moteris two women dvi moterys five women penkios moterys six women šešios moterys four women keturios moterys duktė is the word for daughter a daughter duktė one daughter viena duktė two daughters dvi dukterys three daughters trys dukterys six daughters šešios dukterys four daughters keturios dukterys Šaunu!
