are introduced, you will no longer see them in English. That will help
you remember words which other sites won't reinforce. Lithuanian is not
by any means a very easy language, but it could be as easy as reading a
webpage.

To prepare you should get a
Lithuanian-English Dictionary, because there will always be a will to
learn new words. We do not have a preferred one. Just make sure it
suits your needs. Even we cannot teach all words. We will teach you the
basics, but the rest is up to you.

Lithuanian letters. Go to the link below and compare the letters there
to the letters below the link. If the letters don't match you need to
