Day 14

Dear listeners, students, and friends. I am glad to introduce you to the second episode of my Lithuanian podcast for non-native speakers. 

In today's episode, you will learn more about one of my favorite Lithuanian celebrations - Užgavėnės. In 2024, Užgavėnės is going to be celebrated on the 13th of February, so I encourage you to learn a bit more about it's traditions, meaning and significance.

I suggest turning on the subtitles for a more comfortable listening experience. Install Language Reactor to translate the Lithuanian titles into your native language.

Also, if you wish to receive the full transcript of this episode, please head to my Contribee. There you will find all the podcast's transcripts, longer format Lithuanian with Paulius recordings and more.

One Minute Challenge: Who are you grateful to?

Today's one-minute challenge is to think of people or a person that you feel grateful for.

Who is this person?

How did you get acquainted with this person?

What did they help you with?

And what are the consequences of their help? How did your life change as a result?

Take some time. You can listen to the recording several times to answer the questions. Listen to it. Reading and listening are two modalities (languages of the mind, if you will). Use them both to stimulate your mind differently!

And apply for my private 1-on-1 coaching to go from an English learner to a confident English communicator, whether for job interview preparation, an IELTS speaking exam, or improving your business English for a career and promotions.

See you in my 1-1 classes.
