Lithuanian Translation Services

• The first official publication of the Lithuanian language was a book in 1547. It was the Catechism written by Martynas Mazvydas, who was a pastor at the Evangelical Lutheran Church. Furthermore, the book also contained Lithuanian alphabets for the first time too. The book is now taught in an analytical capacity to the children at the secondary school level.
• The Catchesim included the Lithuanian diacritics for the first time; č, ū, š, ų, ž ę, ė, į and ą. It was initially a Gothic script that was organized by scrolling letters. However, the script has been translated to accommodate linguistic evolution.
• Lithuanians are very proud of their language. The most influential Lithuanian linguist has said there is no pride in speaking a foreign language. However, there is a great shame in not knowing the local language perfectly. The remark perfectly sums up how the Lithuanians feel about their language.
• While some may consider flying and laser eyes as superheroes, Lithuanians place book smugglers in the same category. The Russian empire prohibited reading Latin books in its regime. Therefore, many patriots would put their lives at risk to smuggle Lithuanian books for reading from Prussia.
• It may be astonishing to discover many Lithuanian words mirror Sanskrit when language is part of the Indo-European family. However, some words will be familiar to individuals residing in the Asian Subcontinent, such as vyras and Avis.
• Lithuanians usually name their children inspired by nature, such as Aušra (dawn) or Rūta (rue-flower). These are recent names as the practice has been very common since ancient times. Lithuanians believe they are strongly connected to trees, water, and the natural phenomenon. Therefore, they name their children nature’s names to showcase the bond.
• The longest word in the Lithuanian language contains 37 letters. It is Nebeprisikiškiakopūsteliaujantiesiems. The word means donating to someone who does not collect wood sorrels anymore. The word is not commonly used, yet Lithuanians pronounce it proudly.
