from LITHUANIAN OUT LOUD

Daug Many   Hi there, I'm Jack and I'm Eglė and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud where we offer the world the Lithuanian language.   Egle, welcome to the show!  Hi! Where, now, where are you from? Okay, I am from Lithuania. What part?  Klaipėda.  Vakarų Lietuva – western Lithuania. So, you're from western Lithuania.  Yes. And, what is your accent?  What style of accent..? No accent!  Standard? (Raminta in the background) Yes! So, Egle…   Stelmužė is a village in Zarasai district, Lithuania. There is a wooden chapel built in 1650 not using saws or iron nails; it is the oldest wooden religious building in Lithuania. Stelmužė is also known for the Tower of Slaves or Vergų bokštas, a rectangular building constructed of stone and bricks, used for imprisonment of serfs. Nasty.  Did you know this?  No!  Wow, we try to teach on every lesson a little bit about Lithuania.  That's nice.  History, religion, the old religion, things like this.   pradėkime, let's get started   On recent episodes we worked on numbering things such as three museums, trys muziejai or thirty seven dogs, trisdešimt septyni šunys.  That's a lot!  Yes!   Today we'll go over how to say, many dogs or a lot of people.  We're talking about an indefinite number of things.  When you talk about indefinite numbers of things you use the plural genitive.  First, some vocabulary…   vocabulary – žodynas   a woman                moteris   women                moterys   a sort                  rūšis   sorts                    rūšys   a year                  metai   hearts                  širdys   an insect              vabzdys   insects                 vabzdžiai   a fly                     musė   flies                     musės   a person               žmogus   people                  žmonės   water                    vanduo   sad                      liūdnas / liūdna   a minute               minutė   minutes                minutės   a religion              religija   religions                religijos   a face                    veidas   faces                     veidai   nitrate                    nitratas   nitrates                  nitratai   an elephant            dramblys   elephants               drambliai   a document             dokumentas   documents              dokumentai   a mosquito              uodas   mosquitoes              uodai   a question mark       klaustukas   question marks        klaustukai   a smoker                 rūkantysis   smokers                  rūkantys   a location                 vieta   locations                  vietos   a meadow                pieva   meadows                 pievos   So, how long have you known Raminta? Oh, I know Raminta for…12 years. (Raminta in the background)  How many? 12, because for me…it's 29… About 12 years. You've known her since you were 12 years-old or you have known her for 12 years? No, I've known her for 12 years.  We met each other when we were 17 years-old. Aha, kur? (where) In high school. Where, but, where was the high school? The high school in Klaipėda.
