Turiu Pakankamai I Have Enough
Hi there, I’m Jack and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud where we offer the world the Lithuanian language.
On today’s intermediate episode we have a conversation between Raminta, Eglė and myself. I ask them to discuss different phrases without a script. They have no idea what I‘m going to ask them before I ask it. Enjoy the conversation.
---
What I want here is, are you sure? Ar tu tikra? Ar tu tikra? Ar tu tikra.
ar tu tikra kad nori važiuoti į Disneilendą? (Disneilendas = Disneyland)
taip, aš tikra!
---
ar tu tikra kad tu nori vairuoti į Kalifornią?
(are you sure you want to drive to California?)
taip, aš esu tikra
(yes, I am sure)
kodėl? it’s labai toli…(laughter – Raminta accidently mixes English and Lithuanian)
aš atsiprašau…
(I’m sorry)
it’s labai toli (labai toli – very distant)
sorry, see what happens when you are in America
kodėl?…tai labai ilgas kelias…
(why?...that’s a very long drive/road…)
no, no, no, that’s okay, I want just one or two sentences
(everyone talking at once, the girls are surprised Jack doesn’t want a long conversation)
we can talk…forever! blah, blah, blah…yeah, okay, okay…
ar tu tikra kad valgysi šias braškės?
(are you sure that you will eat these strawberries?)
taip, aš tikra nes aš labai mėgstu
(yes, I am sure because I really want to)
okay, now, when you say goodnight to somebody you can say, saldžių sapnų (sweet dreams)
saldžių sapnų, taip, yes, but, I think you have…like a little…thing you would say to children?
laba naktukas, would say, grandma to me…
nice, but…labanakt, labanakt
saldžių sapnų, ramių blusų, kad nekąstų kūno jūsų!
no, that’s difficult!
no way!
no, what does this mean?
like, uh, saldžių sapnų, sweet dreams, and quiet bugs that it would not bite your body.
right, we have the exact same thing, we say, goodnight, sleep tight, don’t let the bed bugs bite.
yes, oh, the same, saldžių sapnų, yeah my mommy, saldžių sapnų, ramių blusų, kad nekąstų kūno jūsų!
the same, the same, wow, cool, cool
bedbugs-nasty
I’m doing a lot of laundry to avoid that
thank you, that’s cool, okay
so, you guys had a discussion the other day, pour it out
so, you said, do you want this?
and so, you said to Eglė, do you want this? Eglė said, no, pour it out
išpilk
so please have this conversation
ar tu gersi šią kavą?
(will you drink this coffee?)
ne, negersiu, prašau, išpilk
(no, I won‘t drink it, please, pour it out)
ačiū
bet kaip skiriasi kalba kai kalbi natūraliai ir kai kalbi gramatiškai
(but how differs a language when you talk naturally and when you speak gramatically)
čia yra the same way we learn in English, tin din din din,
o kai kalbi yra visai kitaip
(and when you speak it is completely different)
okay, if I say pilk lauk to somebody in Vilnius – they would understand?
pilk lauk!
(pour it outside!)
išpilk!
(pour it out!)
išpilk
pilk lauk
go, pour it outside
pour it outside
yeah
išpilk
pilk lauk
pour it outside
išpilk, you say good
išpilk
pilk lauk, it‘s...this...
pilk lauk is more like in the country, like really
išpilk would be proper Lithuanian
okay, išpilk
pilk lauk...
pilk lauk, but...
for example, pour it out, like I said, “do you want this tea?“ no, pour it out išpilk,
right, and when I say, “do you want this tea?“ no, pour it outside
oh
would you say that?
maybe in the country
pilk lauk
lauk – laukas, laukas, yes, uh-huh, got it
(laukas = outdoors)
tricky, tricky
išpilk
iš and pilk, pilk from
pilti, pilti, pilti – to pour
ar gali man įpilti?
could you pour me...?
or, gali išpilti, could you pour it out?
nice, now I understand
gerai
okay, Egle, I like this, “tuk, tuk, čia aš“
tuk, tuk, Raminta, čia aš
(knock, knock, Raminta, it‘s me)
(used when knocking on someone‘s bedroom door)
Egle, užeik į mano į jaukų namą
(Egle, come into my cozy house)
okay, good, could you do it again not using names?
tuk, tuk, čia aš
užeik, atidaryta!
(come in, open!)
nice, nice, really good, yes,
come on, open
like my father would say, (knocking),
užeik!
(come in!)
atidaryta!
(open!)
negalima!
(“no, you can‘t“)
užrakinta!
(locked!)
you know, you hear, like me saying, “tuk, tuk, Raminta, can I come in?“
but I don‘t know if anybody say like that, do you say...tuk, tuk?
polite people do, and it‘s kind of cute to know
okay
ah, is there another way to do it?
(knocking)
you know, just, I say...yes...
ar yra kas namuose?
(is anybody at home?)
what was this?
yes
I say, “tuk, tuk, tuk“
anybody at home?
yeah, anybody at home?
that he hears me better, you know, tuk tuk!
okay, now, have a short conversation using, man sukasi galva
man sukasi galva, man gera, man gera, aš noriu važiuoti į Disneilendą
(my head is spinning, I feel good, I feel good, I want to travel to Disneyland)
važiuokime drauge!
(let‘s go together)
važuokime drauge, mums sukasi galvos
(let’s go together, our heads are spinning)
like my head is spinng around, like, it might be because of various reasons…
yeah, because of some reasons
because you are in love, because you are excited, because you are sick, because you are nauseous, because you’re happy, because you’re sad
man sukasi galva, a lot of reasons, because my head is spinning
too many directions
what to choose, I can’t decide
so, actually, you want an example, when we would use...?
something very short
sukasi galva
Aš įsimylėjau, man sukasi galva
I fell in love, my head is spinning
yes, the best example
okay, so, you could ask, how did it go on your date last night?
kaip sekėsi pasimatymas vakar?
(how was your date yesterday?)
labai gerai, man sukasi galva, kokia aš esu laiminga
(very well, my head is spinning, I‘m so happy)
puiku
(cool)
ai, čia rimtai gerai
(this is really good)
bet čia tiko
(but this fits)
čia labiausia tinka...jo
(this fits the best...yeah)
okay, so make up a short conversation, one or two sentences...

(no, I have enough)
ar nori daugiau arbatos?

mmm, again?

that they would not bite you saldžių sapnų, ramių blusų, kad nekąstų kūno jūsų!
now, if you don‘t feel like saying this entire phrase you can just abbreviate it like this...
saldžių sapnų, ramių blusų
or, like this...
saldžių sapnų ir ramių blusų
or, like this...
labos nakties, saldžių sapnų, ramių blusų
or for fun you can just say,
