About the language
Lithuanian – lietuvių kalba – is one of only two living Baltic languages, the other being Latvian. There used to be many more in the same family – such as Old Prussian – but they became extinct. Linguists are particularly interested in Lithuanian because it’s a very old language which shares some words – like avis meaning sheep – and grammatical constructions with the classical Indian language Sanskrit. There are also a number of loanwords from neighbouring Slavic and Germanic languages, such as Polish and German.

Lithuanian
is an Eastern Baltic language belonging to the Baltic branch of the Indo-European language family. It is the official language of Lithuania and one of the official languages of the European Union. There are about 2.8 million native Lithuanian speakers in Lithuania and about 200,000 speakers elsewhere.
Lithuanian is closely related to the neighbouring Latvian language, though the two languages are not mutually intelligible. It is written in a Latin script. In some respects, some linguists consider it to be the most conservative of the existing Indo-European languages, retaining features of the Proto-Indo-European language that had disappeared through development from other descendant languages.
Fun facts of language
- Traditionally, if a woman gets married she adds the particle ‘-ienė’ to the surname, indicating her new status – although nowadays this is becoming less and less common.
- ‘A good ploughman can plough even with a goose’ is a literal translation of a Lithuanian saying, meaning a good craftsman can do his job even if his tools are not good.
- Nearly all Lithuanian words end in a vowel or an -s.
