i learnt hard but pleasant way that really it is true what they say: only 3 first foreign languages are difficult to learn, after that it becomes much easier. exactly, there form patterns in your head and starting with 4th foreingn language or thereabouts, you just put new bits into same pattern. i think it is called generative grammar? underlying pattern common to all languages. as in: all languages can express e.g. smth happening in future - some have spec verb form for that, futurum, some have other means, word order or extra words, but all can get the idea across somehow.
It's so interesting to watch these kind of videos and knowing where these visual places are just because I live here, you're doing an amazing job, keep it up my friend!
you have a great pronunciation. enjoy your stay and courses. For SIM card buy something like Pildyk , Ežys - those are prepaid and usually comes with a plan for a month for either calls/SMS or Data plan. And they cheap. Afterwards possible to top those cards with more money and order for pretty cheap plan for another month or so. It can be topped at Narvessen, or online at respective websites for each service. For local data/calls/SMS those are great while no roaming needed. If you stay at the city center, for groceries look for Maxima, Rimi, IKI stores. Or some Aibė stores. Those are pretty much our local Tescos. Futher from Old Town there are also LIDL stores as well
0:06 horrible grammar, it should be "prašome sutvarkyti po savęs". "Paskui save" is russian influenced "za saboi". Just so you know natives do mistakes quite often too. "Prašytume" is ok, but very unnecessary in this case.
Šaunu matyti žmonės iš užsienio šalių mokantis lietuviu kalbą. Tau gerai sekasi, taip ir toliau! Its great to see people from other countries learning Lithuanian. You're doing great, keep going!
Subscribed after 2 min of watching... SO IMPRESED !!!! ! I tried to teach my foreign friends few simple Lithuanian words and God did they struggled :D You grasping basics on the first few days.. Looking forward to hearing you after one month !!1
Damn that lecturer is skilled AF, although I have plenty of foreign friends, but never ever would I be able to explain our language specifics so smoothly ...
Oh WOW you are actually very good at lithuanian! Its very rare to see foreign people learning or even knowing about our language. I have a question.. Are you planning on visiting the sea in Palanga? There is J. Basanavičiaus gatvė that goes all the way to the popular Palangos lieptas/tiltas. Of course that is up to you! Sekmės besimokant Lietuvių!
I do agree "Maxima" is probably a very good shopping center that has basically everything food related, if you want anything besides food "Senukai" is a good bet, it has everything from building materials to furniture to electronics. Basically it's an everything shop, except food. Although they still have a little food section, but I would not recommend it.
Welcome to Vilnius! Was funny to recognise the place you were studying at already from just the ceiling :) and then having that guess confirmed later in video. Visai neblogas progresas su kalba per tokį trumpą laiką. 👍
Don't wanna sound mean, but in Lithuania supermarket is generally not a place to get pillows at. We usually go to specialized shops or Senukai for that. I'm actually very surprised that you managed to find anything at Rimi as it is mostly food shop with minimal grocery sections.
Hello, sir, my pleasure about your speaking in lithuanian. Many people from your country and around are very smart and want to learn something more and more 😊. If we compare people from your country and russians, where living in Lithuania many times and can't speak lithuanian, russian people looks like silly 😅.
needing to buy just 1 little spoon and not being able to brings back memories of my study time in Vilnius... i resolved it criminally: just slipt into sleeve 1 spoon from uni cafeteria 🤣
I'm 90% sure it's thanks to Lithuanian viewers that someone there noticed my channel 🥹 Keep it going and they might actually sponsor me (instead of an affiliate link) 😂
oh. if you speak cantonese and mandarin, is it easy peasy to learn 3 vowel accents in lithuanian? i've heard those languages have 6 different those things? lithuanian only has rising ´, falling `, and broken ~. and now, was searching wikip for that accent thing but stumbled upon my favorite vowel, what is relatively rare in world languages but common in mandarin and estonian: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Close-mid_back_unrounded_vowel -- so you'd have no trouble learning at least this, if you decide to learn estonian, the most vowely language. 😀 (if i say vocal you get wrong impression; estonians tend not to be very vocal but language is heavy on vowels, can have rather long words without any or with very few consonants. (garden in a yard: 'õueaiamaa') accent as in lithuanian is no problemo, but length of vowel is important and meaning-deciding. in school we learn there's 3 lengths - short, middle long, long; in university there's 6 different and who knows how many when you do PhD on vowels. to be honest, all 6 don't have meaning-changing power. word is same, if you say it with super short or just short vowel. ppl just understand you are foreigner. but meaning can change between short, long and super long vowel. edit: back to accents. 'tones' are they called, apparently. and according to wikip, only 4 of them in standard chinese. high level, rising, dipping and falling. so, lithuanian system fits right in. i suppose... ?
About the tones - the thing with pitch accent in European languages (I've gone through it in Swedish) is that the pitch isn't consistent. In Chinese languages, when it's a rising tone, it's always rising. But in Lithuanian, even if it's called rising, whether it actually rises depends on the word/phrase, the stress, and where it is in the sentence.
@@RhapsodyinLingo interesting... perhaps it is so bc there's so much grammar besides tones. (in lithuanian, that is; chinese words have no declination, right?) pitch accents. and accent changes also in declination of a noun and conjugation of a verb and other changes, like, adding prefixes and such? in fact, change in accent is part of declination. (what's that thing that i have in my mind, kinda opposite of agglutination; where grammatical meaning is in change of word root, not adding an ending? example 'tooth' - 'teeth'.) like, random example of my ancient lithuanian grammar book, 1st person singular is tyliù ('am silent'), short accent on last vowel, but 3rd person is t~yli ('is silent'), rising accent on first vowel. so, same word indeed does not have same accent in all forms, but same word form usually does? depending on speaker idiolect and dialect and such? it has been long time since i studied it, and never actually needed, but is fun to refresh memories. just now i see i totally misremembered accent names. not falling `, rising ´ and broken ~ as would been logical, but short `, falling ´ and rising ~. mind. blown. ´ falling backwards 😀

It's actually really impressive how well you pronounce the words right away.
Indeed!
I was thinking the same!
Yes! The pronunciation, even the stresses are spot on! 👏👏👏
You are amazing 😊. Thank you for interesting our language.
The dude knows his stuff! Best of luck, Israel!
Having heard how usually foreigners pronounce Lithuanian words your pronunciation is phenomenal in such a short time
Bro you are a literal genius! You already know so much lithuanian + not counting 10 other languages, sweet!
Well done !! Hello from Hong Kong
bro is learning at the speed of light u def got a talent for languages
Sekmės, Izraeli!
Nice job, speaking so many languages must make it easier to spot patterns in constructions in sentences. It's hard for me but you're doing amazing!
i learnt hard but pleasant way that really it is true what they say: only 3 first foreign languages are difficult to learn, after that it becomes much easier. exactly, there form patterns in your head and starting with 4th foreingn language or thereabouts, you just put new bits into same pattern. i think it is called generative grammar? underlying pattern common to all languages. as in: all languages can express e.g. smth happening in future - some have spec verb form for that, futurum, some have other means, word order or extra words, but all can get the idea across somehow.
As a Lithuanian, i'm honestly proud of you.
Ogo, Izraeli, tavo sugebėjimas greit mokintis kalbas yra tikrai įspūdingas. Fantastika!
Šaunuolis esi, Izraeli!

Šaunuolis!:D You are doing very well!
Congrats on the sponsor! Love the Alolan Marowak shirt XD
The pinkness of the soup reminds me of an Indonesian dessert.
It's an affiliate campaign 😅😅
The pinkness of the soup is 100% from beet root. Hardly dessert material. Very refreshing, though. It's like a liquid salad.
labai laukiau update'o. Sekmės moksluose！加油
It's amazimg how much you learned in just a week, keep up the work!
I'm so impressed with your progress so far! I can't wait to see more videos 🤩
Your Lithuanian is getting even better! Good luck in the future :D
Thank you for such great content!

wow you are very talented at languages
Mokinkis mokinkis! Lietuvių kalba turi tik apie 11 000 000 žodžių .😁👍
Labai geras video👍
Pro tip: for simcard buy the unlimited LABAS it's like 6 euros. Most international students buy this for WiFi
Linkiu kuo didžiausios sėkmės, mūsų kalba užsieniečiui tikrai nelengva :)
Šaunuolis!
Tikrai gražu žiūrėti ir klausyti tavo video.

Do you study in SMK? Come to Kaunas!
Will you use LingQ for learning Lithuanian? They recently anounced it to be the next language they add.
Can you share which workbook you are filling out?
What made you want to study the language?
You can watch his most viewed video. He explained it there.
Buvo įdomu! Ar vis dar gyveni Lietuvoje? Tikiuosi bus daugiau video :)
Hey! Nice video. What book did you use to study Lithuanian? Aciu
Narvesen yra kioskas ;)
Impressive :o

Say hi! I'm just here for a few more days 🥲
If you are not in to laktozė, I'm afraid šaltibarščiai might not be right for you 😬😬
Learnt it the hard way 💀 still enjoyed it though
Don't Taiwanese speak mandarin? BTW, šaltibarščiai are made of kefir / sour milk (contains lactose).
How did you like šaltibarščiai?
BTW, NordVPN yra lietuviškas produktas.
Yooo nord vpn is a Lithuanian company :D
Have you learned what "nebeprisikiškiakopūsteliaudavome" means already?
