The Roma, also known as gypsies, are groups of nomadic people who have a rich culture in many of today\u2019s European countries.\xa0 According to the webpage, \u201cReview on Roma in Lithuania,\u201d the Roma had the right to move from one place to another and to have self-government with an elected chief. The Roma used to live in Gypsy encampments, keeping to their traditional way of life.\xa0 The Roma mostly live around Vilnius, Kaunas, Klaip\u0117da, and \u0160iauliai.\xa0 Lithuania is working hard to provide food, shelter and language lessons for the Roma to allow them to become fully integrated into Lithuanian society.

Great, now let\u2019s say a friend calls you on the your cell phone and asks, where are you?\xa0 Klausau is the way Lithuanians answer the phone.\xa0 It comes from the verb klausyti, to listen.\xa0 Klausau literally translates as, I\u2019m listening.

hello\xa0\xa0\xa0\xa0\xa0
