Lithuanian Out Loud 0271 – Mes Su Narimantu Narimantas And I

from LITHUANIAN OUT LOUD

LL0271 – Mes Su Narimantu Narimantas And I   Hi there, I'm Jack and I'm Gintarė and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud where we offer the world the Lithuanian language.   According to the Wikipedia page, Užgavėnės, this is a traditional Lithuanian celebration that's held at the same time as Mardi Gras in New Orleans and Brazil's Carnival.  The celebration starts with the burning of Morė, an effigy of winter.  Participants wear costumes, folklore groups perform traditional plays, people dance and eat traditional foods.  Many of the costumes worn during the festival represent devils, witches, farm animals, the grim reaper, etcetera.     http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uzgavenes   photo: Užgavėnės 14 February 2010 photographer: Andrius Petrucenia (Wikipedia)   Today we'll go over how to say things like Raminta and I, Narimantas and I, or the dog and I.   The way you can express this idea in Lithuanian is different from the way English speakers do it.  Lithuanians can say roughly, "we with Daiva" to express, "Daiva and I" or "we with Romas" to express, "Romas and I."   prašom pakartoti, please repeat…   we mes   with su   Evaldas is eating a pizza Evaldas valgo picą   Evaldas
