Welcome to the lesson on telling time in Lithuanian! In this lesson, we will delve into the fascinating world of timekeeping in the Lithuanian language. Understanding how to ask and give the time is an essential skill for effective communication in any language, and Lithuanian is no exception.

|}


== The Basics of Telling Time ==
== Asking for the Time ==


In Lithuanian, just like in English, time is measured using hours and minutes. The hour is referred to as "valanda" in Lithuanian, and the minute is referred to as "minutė". When telling the time, the hour comes first, followed by the minutes. To indicate the time, we use the numbers from 1 to 12 to represent the hours.
In Lithuanian, to ask for the time, you can use the phrase '''"Kiek valandų?"''' which translates to '''"What time is it?"'''


Let's start by learning how to say the hours in Lithuanian. Here are the numbers from 1 to 12:
Here are some additional expressions you can use:

|-
| vienas || [ˈvʲæ.nɐs] || one
 
| Kiek dabar valandų? || /kʲek dɐˈbar vaˈlandʊ/ || What time is it now?
 
|-

|-
|-
| trys || [trʲɪs] || three
 
| Kiek yra valandų? || /kʲek iˈra vaˈlandʊ/ || How many hours are there?
 
|}
 
== Giving the Time ==
 
When someone asks you for the time, you can respond using the following structure: '''"Yra [hour] valanda [minute] minutė."'''
 
For example:
 
* If it is 3:15, you would say: '''"Yra trys valanda penkiolika minutė."'''
 
Let's look at some examples in a table:
 
{| class="wikitable"
 
! Lithuanian !! Pronunciation !! English
 
|-
|-
| keturi || [kʲɛˈtʊrʲɪ] || four
 
| Yra viena valanda. || /ˈiːrɐ ˈvʲenɐ vaˈlandɐ/ || It is one o'clock.
 
|-
|-
| penki || [ˈpʲɛŋkʲɪ] || five
 
| Yra dvi valandos. || /ˈiːrɐ dʲvi ˈvaˈlandɔs/ || It is two o'clock.
 
|-
|-
| šeši || [ˈʃɛʃɪ] || six
 
| Yra trys valandos penkiolika. || /ˈiːrɐ trʲis ˈvaˈlandɔs pɛŋˈkʲɪɔlɪkɐ/ || It is three fifteen.
 
|-
|-
| septyni || [sɛpˈtʲɪnɪ] || seven
 
| Yra keturios valandos trisdešimt. || /ˈiːrɐ kʲeˈtʲuɾjɔs ˈvaˈlandɔs trʲisˈdeʃɪmt/ || It is four thirty.
 
|-
|-
| aštuoni || [ˈaʃ.tʊʊ.nɪ] || eight
 
| Yra penkios valandos penkios minutės. || /ˈiːrɐ ˈpʲeŋkʲɔs ˈvaˈlandɔs ˈpʲeŋkʲɔs miˈnuːtʲes/ || It is five o'clock and five minutes.
 
|}
 
=== Talking About Routines ===
 
Now that we've covered how to ask for and give the time, let's see how we can use this knowledge to discuss daily routines.  
 
Here are a few phrases and vocabulary that will help you describe your daily activities in relation to time:
 
{| class="wikitable"
 
! Lithuanian !! Pronunciation !! English
 
|-
|-
| devyni || [dʲɛˈvʲɪnɪ] || nine
 
| Aš keliuosi 7 valandą. || /aʃ kʲeˈlʲuɔsi ˈsɛtʲeˈnːa vaˈlandɐ/ || I wake up at 7 o'clock.
 
|-
|-
| dešimt || [dʲɛˈʃʲɪmt] || ten
 
| Aš einu miegoti 10 valandą. || /aʃ ˈeɪnʊ ˈmʲeɡɔtʲ ʊ ˈdʲeˈšimtą vaˈlandɐ/ || I go to sleep at 10 o'clock.
 
|-
|-
| vienuolika || [vʲɪʊˈnʊ.lʲɪkɐ] || eleven
 
| Pietauti einu 12 valandą. || /pʲeɪˈtʲautʲi ˈeɪnʊ ˈdʲvʲiːlɪkɐ vaˈlandɐ/ || I have lunch at 12 o'clock.
 
|-
|-
| dvylika || [dʋʲɪˈlʲɪkɐ] || twelve
 
| Aš dirbu iki 5 valandos. || /aʃ ˈdʲirbʊ ˈiːkʲɪ pʲeŋkʲių ˈvaˈlandɔs/ || I work until 5 o'clock.
 
|}
|}


Now that we know the numbers, we can start forming time expressions. To say the time in Lithuanian, we simply combine the hour and the minute. For example:
As you can see, you can use the structure '''"Aš [verb] [time]"''' to describe your activities in relation to time.
 
== Practice Exercises ==
 
Now it's your turn to practice what you've learned! Below are some exercises to reinforce your understanding of telling time in Lithuanian.
 
=== Exercise 1: Fill in the Blanks ===
 
Complete the sentences with the correct time expressions:
 
1. Kiek __________ valandų? 
 
2. Aš keliuosi __________ valandą.
 
'''Solutions:'''
 
1. dabar
 
2. septynias
 
=== Exercise 2: Time Translation ===
 
Translate the following times into Lithuanian:
 
1. 4:45
 
2. 9:30
 
'''Solutions:'''
 
1. Yra keturios valandos keturiasdešimt penkios.
 
2. Yra devynios valandos trisdešimt.
 
=== Exercise 3: Daily Routine Description ===
 
Write sentences about your daily routine using the following times:
 
1. 8:00
 
2. 6:00
 
'''Solutions:'''
 
1. Aš keliuosi aštuntą valandą.
 
2. Aš einu miegoti šeštą valandą.
 
=== Exercise 4: Asking for Time ===
 
Practice making questions asking for the time. Write down 3 different variations.


- 8:15 = "aštuoni valanda penkiolika minutės" (eight o'clock fifteen minutes)
'''Solutions:'''


Notice that we use the word "valanda" (hour) after the hour number, and the word "minutės" (minutes) after the minute number. Let's practice a few more examples:
1. Kiek valandų?


- 3:30 = "trys valanda trisdešimt minutės" (three o'clock thirty minutes)
2. Kiek dabar valandų?
- 11:45 = "vienuolika valanda keturiasdešimt penkios minutės" (eleven o'clock forty-five minutes)


Remember to always use the singular form of "valanda" when the hour is one, and the plural form "valandos" for all other hours.
3. Ar gali pasakyti, kiek valandų?


== Asking for the Time ==
=== Exercise 5: Matching Exercise ===


To ask for the time in Lithuanian, we use the question word "kiek" (how much) followed by the verb "yra" (is) and the word "valandų" (hours). For example:
Match the Lithuanian phrases with their English translations:


- Kiek yra valandų? (What time is it?)
1. Yra dvi valandos.


To specify a specific time, we can combine the question word "kiek" with the verb "yra" and the hour and minute numbers. For example:
2. Kiek yra valandų?


- Kiek yra aštuoni valanda penkiolika minutės? (What time is it?)
3. Aš dirbu iki 4 valandos.


Let's practice a few more examples:
'''Solutions:'''


- Kiek yra dvylika valanda dvidešimt penkios minutės? (What time is it?)
1 - It is two o'clock.
- Kiek yra vienuolika valanda trisdešimt minutės? (What time is it?)


Remember to always use the accusative case for the word "valandų" when asking for the time.
2 - How many hours are there?


== Daily Routines and Schedules ==
3 - I work until 4 o'clock.


Now that we know how to tell the time and ask for the time, let's explore how we can use this knowledge to discuss daily routines and schedules in Lithuanian. Talking about daily activities and schedules is an important part of communication, as it allows us to coordinate and plan our time effectively.
=== Exercise 6: Time Conversion ===


To talk about daily routines, we can use the verb "dirbti" (to work) as an example. Here are a few examples of how we can use this verb to talk about daily routines:
Convert the following sentences to include time:


- Aš dirbu nuo aštuonios valandos iki penkių valandos. (I work from eight o'clock to five o'clock.)
1. I wake up at 7:30.
- Jis dirba nuo devynių valandų ryte iki šešių valandų vakare. (He works from nine o'clock in the morning to six o'clock in the evening.)


Notice that we use the preposition "nuo" (from) to indicate the starting time, and the preposition "iki" (until) to indicate the ending time. We also use the genitive case for the words "valandos" (hour) and "rytas" (morning) to indicate the specific time period.
2. I have dinner at 8:15.


We can also use the verb "turėti" (to have) to talk about schedules. Here are a few examples:
'''Solutions:'''


- Mano pamokos prasideda devyniolikta valanda. (My classes start at nineteen o'clock.)
1. Aš keliuosi septintą valandą trisdešimt.
- Mes turime susitikimą ketvirtadienį septyniolikta valanda. (We have a meeting on Thursday at seventeen o'clock.)


In these examples, we use the ordinal numbers to indicate the specific hour, and the genitive case for the words "valandos" (hour) and "diena" (day) to indicate the specific time and day.
2. Aš valgau vakarienę aštuntą valandą penkiolika.


== Regional Variations and Cultural Insights ==
=== Exercise 7: Create Your Own Routine ===


In Lithuania, the way time is spoken and understood can vary slightly across different regions. For example, some regions may use the 24-hour clock format more commonly, while others may use the 12-hour clock format. It's important to be aware of these regional variations when communicating with people from different parts of Lithuania.
Write down a description of your daily routine, including at least three different times.


Additionally, it's worth noting that Lithuania has a rich cultural history and a strong connection to nature. This is reflected in the way time is perceived and expressed in the language. For example, in Lithuanian folklore, certain hours of the day are associated with specific activities or natural phenomena. This cultural understanding of time adds depth and meaning to the language and provides insights into the unique cultural identity of Lithuania.
