the main goal of the topic is to ask if you know Lithuania and which things are mainly assocciated with the country? Have you ever met Lithuanians and would you like to visit the country? Maybye, have you ever heard a traditional Lithuanian music or have you ever tried a food? Or have you read something interesting on the paper? Tell me more about Lithuania from your point of view
Thank you for the answer, yeh, Lithuania is famous for basketball, the three you mentioned came from LT. I fell overwhelmed that you know how to spell Lithuania - Lietuva
I found the recipe for you - it will be a simple dish from potatoes mainly.
A “pie” of potatoes
Ingredients:
Potatoes 250 grams
Milk 50 mL
Fat fork or flank 15g
1/4 of egg
3 Onions
A pinch of salt
Preparation:
Potatoes have to be washed and peeled, then grated. Then potatoes have to be mixed with boiling milk. Stir the 1/4 of egg with salt.
Fry fat pork or flank and shredded onions for a short time and put mixed egg and fork and onions to the mix of potatoes and milk. Then put everything to tin, and to the oven. Keep untill the surface bacomes a little bit brown, or darky yellow.
Then you could eat it with Britich cream, a cup of milk, butter or crackling.
Yeh, I saw I forgot to say what I like most about my country. That’s music, I am a fan especialy for folk or a kind of music called “sutartines”. I know there isn’t such word in Engish because just our country has the songs. It is performed by a group of people, when one group (or person) sings the same text at different times and therefore you could hear many voices in the song. I also found a video with traditional lithuanian music youtube.com/watch?v=LvpQTyWNdiM
First, Bzzz, I’ll bet you’re a Russian-speaking resident of Lithuania, because you don’t have an Lithuanian accent. Your accent sounds Russian.
I believe the Lithuanian language has no [u] sound, because when many Lithuanians speak English, they replace [u] with [i] a lot of the time. In fact, I think the “euro” is written “eiro” in Lithuanian.
The Lithuanians were very courageous in gaining their independence from the Soviet Union, even though Gorbachev sent special troops there to prevent it.
No, I am fully Lithuanian and I am not able to speak Russian (of course, I want, but…) I have heard that both Lihuanians and Poles also have Russian accent speaking Engish. Euro is written euras in Lithuanian.
Yes, we were courageous, maybye, not as we are now. That’s sad, because the high level of emigration and unemployment.
