\\xa0
Hi everybody! Jack is back. It\\u2019s been so long since I last published an episode, you must have wondered if you were ever going to hear a new one.
\\xa0
2011 was an amazing year and I was so busy I couldn\\u2019t even think of putting together any new episodes. In the past I think we did a pretty good job of not telling you where we were. Did you ever figure it out? I don\\u2019t think we gave out many clues. We were recording in Longmont, Colorado in the United States. Longmont is a small town about 35 miles north of Denver.
\\xa0
After a 30-year career as an air traffic controller, I finally retired from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). An air traffic control company hired me and I was whisked off to Kansas City, Missouri, then Columbia, South Carolina, Chicago, Illinois, Istanbul, Turkey, Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan and finally Kabul, Afghanistan.
\\xa0
I controlled air traffic in Kabul for only three months before I had to leave. That was a really tough assignment and I didn\\u2019t like it very much at all.
\\xa0
Then I spent a month brushing up on my Spanish in Guadalajara, Mexico before arriving where I am now. I\\u2019ve finally settled down, hopefully for a few years, in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. I love it here. I\\u2019ve finished training and just got back from a vacation in Cairo, Egypt and Beirut, Lebanon. I even spent a couple of days in the middle of the street riots near Tahrir Square. It was quite an experience.
\\xa0
Raminta and I have decided to separate. We\\u2019re still good friends, we get along great, we talk almost every\\xa0 day. The divorce is amicable, we\\u2019re just going in different directions with our lives. So, I\\u2019ll have to try to find another co-host some day. For now, I\\u2019ll just grab any native Lithuanian speaker I can find.
\\xa0
Fortunately, before we went off the air one year ago, I was able to record many episodes. I have about 40 on my computer. All I have to do is clean them up and post them. If I can\\u2019t find a Lithuanian to help me do future episodes, we should start to run into trouble after episode 300 or so. I wonder if there are any Lithuanians in Abu Dhabi.
\\xa0
So, that\\u2019s about it for now. My time is still very tight, but I\\u2019ll try to keep the episodes coming.
\\xa0
Thanks for tuning in and I hope you enjoy more lessons for some time to come.
\\xa0
Okay, here we go, enjoy.
\\xa0
\\xa0
Hi there, I\\u2019m Jack and I\\u2019m Gintar\\u0117 and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud where we offer the world the Lithuanian language.

According to the website, National Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty, Lithuania held its final execution in 1995 and capital punishment was abolished in Lithuania in 1998.

In previous episodes we went over the instrumental case or \\u012fnagininkas.\\xa0 Today we\\u2019ll go through a few examples of the plural instrumental. \\xa0
This episode is large so we\\u2019ll break it up.\\xa0 This is the first part.
\\xa0
Here is how the different word endings are declined:
\\xa0

-is changes to -iais
-ys changes to -iais

-a changes to -omis
-\\u0117 changes to -\\u0117mis
-uo as in \\u0161uo/sesuo/akmuo changes to \\u2013imis
