Hello and welcome,

My name is Paulius, and I am an online tutor of Lithuanian and English. I created this Lithuanian podcast for learners who want to listen to authentic Lithuanian content but struggle to find material suitable for their level.

In this week's episode, you will hear my conversation with Agathe. Born in France to a Lithuanian family, Agathe began learning Lithuanian after her grandfather passed away. As the last fluent Lithuanian speaker in her family, he and his brother inspired Agathe to preserve the language and keep this part of her heritage alive. After more than a decade of dedicated study, Agathe recently passed the Lithuanian C1 proficiency exam.

In our conversation, we discuss her learning journey, the challenges she faced, the methods that helped her succeed, and her advice for other Lithuanian learners.

Would you like to start learning Lithuanian in a structured way?

Mielieji lietuvių kalbos mokiniai ir kiti tinklalaidės klausytojai,Šiandien tinklalaidėje svečiuojasi karo istorikas, politikas, Lietuvos Respublikos Seimo narys ir humanitarinių mokslų daktaras, profesorius Valdas Rakutis.Šioje tinklalaidėje su ponu Rakučiu diskutavome apie ideologinę krizę, kurią šiuo metu išgyvena Lietuva, Europa ir Vakarų pasaulis. Panašu, kad vis labiau prarandame ideologinį stuburą, o populizmas ir toliau siūlo paprastus, bet paviršutiniškus atsakymus į sudėtingus klausimus.Pokalbio metu bandėme identifikuoti pagrindinius mums kenkiančius, tačiau mūsų pačių dažnai kartojamus naratyvus.

Dear students,

Welcome to one of your first Lithuanian classes! My name is Paulius.

I am a Lithuanian & English tutor who works online. In my free time, I create educational materials, such as podcasts, presentations, and texts for my students to read or listen to.

In today's meeting, I would like to introduce you to my native language by explaining how to address people using the vocative case. We will start by comparing the vocative with the nominative case. Later, we will practice addressing people with a few on-screen exercises.

This will help you not only learn a new case and avoid common mistakes in Lithuanian but also learn some essential Lithuanian vocabulary.

Would you like to start learning Lithuanian with me? Check out my:

Sveiki mielieji lietuvių kalbos mokiniai ir kiti tinklalaidės klausytojai.

Ar A2 lygis per trejus metus yra per didelis reikalavimas gyvenant Lietuvoje?

Šios savaitės tinklalaidėje noriu jums paaiškinti, kas yra A2 lygis lietuvių kalboje, kiek laiko gali užtrukti norint jį pasiekti ir kaip artimiausiu metu gali pasikeisti laikino leidimo gyventi Lietuvoje tvarka.

Šis vaizdo įrašas yra mano reakcija į socialiniuose tinkluose ir žiniasklaidoje garsiai nuskambėjusią Vilniaus miesto mero Valdo Benkunsko iniciatyvą, kuria siekiama pakeisti laikino leidimo gyventi Lietuvoje pratęsimo tvarką.

Vilniaus meras siūlo pratęsti leidimą gyventi tik tiems žmonėms, kurie per trejus metus nuo pirmojo leidimo išdavimo pramoko lietuvių kalbą iki A2 lygio. Šį lygį reikėtų įrodyti išlaikant valstybinės kalbos egzaminą.

Skirtingai nuo daugelio komentatorių socialiniuose tinkluose, aš palaikau šią iniciatyvą, ir peržiūrėję mano vaizdo įrašą, jūs sužinosite kodėl. Taip pat, noriu išgirsti ir jūsų nuomonę.

Ką jūs manote apie šį pasiūlymą? Ar manote, kad Vilniaus meras prašo per daug? Galbūt nesuprantate, kam to reikia? O galbūt palaikote šį pasiūlymą, kaip ir aš? Kodėl? Lauksiu jūsų komentarų ir diskusijos šia tema.

00:00 - Įžanga

01:38 - Kas yra A2 lygis?

04:44 - Kiek laiko užtruks?

09:14 - Mano nuomonė apie A2 lygį užsienio šalyje

15:23 - Mano klausimai jums

Do you want to start learning with me? 🤔

Dear students and Lithuanian listeners,

Today I'd like to introduce you to Yuliya. Yuliya is a Lithuanian student from Ukraine. She came to Lithuania in 2021 to pursue her Bachelor’s degree in Klaipėda. This year, she graduated from Vilnius University with a Master’s degree in Eastern European Studies.

Now, after five years, she is back in Ukraine and getting used to everyday life in Kyiv. In today’s video, we talk about her experiences in Lithuania, how she feels about being back home in Ukraine, her Master’s thesis, and, of course, learning Lithuanian.

And if you'd like to learn Lithuanian, I invite you to join some of my groups and courses!
