Lithuanian Out Loud 0047 - Pabuciuok Mane Kiss Me

Published: Jan. 14, 2008, 12:03 a.m.

Hi there, this is Jack and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud where the month of January is sausis and the lessons are on the house!\\xa0 And now, here\\u2019s my beautiful wife Raminta and she\\u2019s going to share with us some more Lithuanian culture.\\xa0 Welcome back Raminta.

Oh, thank you dear, I\\u2019m so happy to be back on Lithuanian Out Loud.\\xa0 By now, we\\u2019re familiar with Perk\\u016bnas, the Lithuanian Thundergod.\\xa0 One of his daughters was named J\\u016brat\\u0117.\\xa0 Her name comes from the word j\\u016bra which translates as, the sea.\\xa0 J\\u016brat\\u0117 is the goddess of the sea, she rules the ocean, all sea life and she lived in an amber palace at the bottom of the Baltic Sea.\\xa0 A fisherman named Kastytis was causing havoc.\\xa0 He was tossing his nets into the sea and J\\u016brat\\u0117 went to demand he stop.\\xa0 Once J\\u016brat\\u0117 saw Kastytis throwing his nets she fell in love with him and brought him back to her amber palace.\\xa0 This made her father Perk\\u016bnas very angry.\\xa0 He was angry because J\\u016brat\\u0117 was promised to marry Patrimpas, the God of Water.\\xa0 Perk\\u016bnas destroyed the amber palace with a single bolt of lightning and killed her lover.\\xa0 The palace was smashed and J\\u016brat\\u0117 was chained to the ruins forever.\\xa0 When storms in the Baltic stir up the waters, pieces of the amber palace wash up on Lithuania\\u2019s shore.\\xa0 If you find fragments in the shape of tears they are from the grieving goddess as she mourns for Kastytis.\\xa0 It\\u2019s said you can hear J\\u016brat\\u0117 crying during Baltic Sea storms.\\xa0 How sad!\\xa0 Poor J\\u016brat\\u0117!

Before we get to today\\u2019s lesson here\\u2019s a message from Nik in California in the United States.\\xa0

Hello Jack and Raminta, my name is Nik, I\\u2019m from Orange County, California and I\\u2019m taking your podcast lessons.\\xa0 I am 50% Lithuanian and I\\u2019ve been wanting to learn Lithuanian because my family speaks it and I cannot understand a single word they\\u2019re saying to me.\\xa0 I\\u2019ve only known a couple words because of me growing up I call my grandmother mo\\u010diut\\u0117 and my grandfather senelis it\\u2019s just a little weird when I hear them speak I think, \\u201coh my gosh I can\\u2019t hear what they\\u2019re saying."\\xa0 I have really no experience with Lithuania.\\xa0 I\\u2019ve been wanting to go for a long, long, long time, ever since my Lithuanian family members was in Luxembourg and my family was irking me to go over there but I never got the chance to and I\\u2019m hoping to go there for the big, huge thousand year celebration in 2009.\\xa0 I just discovered your podcast on iTunes and I thought ooh maybe it\\u2019s something I should take a shot at because I\\u2019ve never seen Lithuanian on the internet before and it is a great resource.\\xa0 I\\u2019ve been trying to learn the language my grandma has said it\\u2019s really, really hard and it\\u2019s one of the oldest living Indo-European languages, I can find that very, very true from what you\\u2019re saying on this podcast.\\xa0 It is a very great resource and I\\u2019ve been recommending it to all my friends, even to some of my professors, and they like it.\\xa0 They\\u2019ve been doing little Lithuanian words of the day on the board, and everything, I sent an email to you guys just earlier and I have all these books on Introduction to Modern Lithuanian that are not helping because there\\u2019s no native speaker there present because of that so what you\\u2019re doing is a great job, just keep up the good work and keep adding more episodes, I just really want to learn, I\\u2019m on episode 17 right now, but I\\u2019m getting up there.\\xa0 My grandma, I\\u2019m already talking to her in Lithuanian a little bit and she\\u2019s like, good job, just keep on learning and maybe we can have a full conversation.\\xa0 Feel free to use my comments, just thank you very much, bye.

Thanks Nik!\\xa0 Say hi to your grandparents from Raminta and I, again, thanks for your input, we\\u2019ll try to keep the episodes coming.

Well, no matter how much we love each other, sometimes we have to say goodbye\\u2026

bu\\u010diuoti is the verb to kiss

geros dienos, bu\\u010dkis, ate! ate!\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0
have a good day, kisses, bye bye!

geros dienos, bu\\u010dkis, ate!\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0
have a good day, kisses, bye!

geros dienos, bu\\u010dkis, ate! ate!\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0
have a good day, kisses, bye bye!

or we could say\\u2026

geros dienos, bu\\u010diuoju, ate!\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0
have a good day, kisses, bye!

geros dienos, bu\\u010diuoju, ate! ate!\\xa0\\xa0 \\xa0
have a good day, kisses, bye bye!

geros dienos, bu\\u010diuoju, ate!\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0
have a good day, kisses, bye!

bu\\u010diuoju basically translates the same as bu\\u010dkis
literally bu\\u010diuoju means, I kiss
It comes from the verb bu\\u010diuoti - to kiss

Another way to say, kisses! as in a way to say goodbye is, bu\\u010dinys.
However, bu\\u010dinys is only used in a letter or email, so it\\u2019s mostly typed or written, not spoken.

Alright, the day is over, time to go to bed.\\xa0 Let\\u2019s say, sweet dreams, love, goodnight.

saldus is the Lithuanian word in vardininkas for sweet
sapnas is vardininkas for dream

We say the same phrase to a male or female, please repeat, pra\\u0161om pakartoti\\u2026

sald\\u017ei\\u0173 sapn\\u0173 meile, labanakt\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0
