<h2>Cultural Notes</h2>
! Lithuanian !! Pronunciation !! English


In Lithuanian culture, it is important to be respectful towards others and use formal language when conversing with those you have just met or those in positions of authority. When making plans with friends, it is common to decide on the time and location in advance, rather than spontaneously suggesting a venue. Additionally, in Lithuanian culture, it is customary to bring a small gift or token of appreciation when invited to someone's home for the first time. This could be a small bouquet of flowers or a box of chocolates.
