Lithuanian phrasebook

Stress in Lithuanian is not fixed; the stress can fall almost anywhere on any word. If you are even seriously considering to study the language Intensively, the best way to learn the language is do it word by word. Also, Lithuanians themselves stress differently, based on region. When speaking Lithuanian, you won't know which word to stress, but you will still be understood, even if you get it wrong.

In the Lithuanian vowels, you shall find both long and short vowel sounds.
