ANNEXES GENERAL LANGUAGE ELEMENTS

LANGUAGE STUDIES AND ITS BRANCHES. Science analysing a language is called language science or linguistics. Historical or diahronical linguistics analyze the history of the language and the development of language phenomena. Grammar analyzes the grammatical structure of words, their compounds and sentences. It consists of the following two branches: morphology, the object of which is composition and forms of words, making and inflection of words and syntax which analyzes the structure of sentences and words compounds. Language science branch lexicology analyzes the words, i.e. language vocabulary. Language styles are analyzed by language science branch stylistics. Home or spoken style is a style of everyday communication used in unofficial fields of life: family, street, home, etc. Artistic or fiction style is used in fiction literature, it performs aesthetical and expressive function. Scientific style is the style of scientific activity and scientific papers writing. Office style is used in record-keeping. Publicistic style is the style having the features of scientific and artistic styles.

LITHUANIAN LANGUAGE AND OTHER LANGUAGES. There are about 3000 languages in the world. According the origin and development, languages are divided into families. Languages family is a group of related languages the members of which developed from one language called parent language. Indoeuropean languages family is the largest. About 3 billion people speak the languages of this family, i.e. almost half of the habitants of the world. Lithuanian language also belongs to this family. One branch of indoeuropean family make Lettic languages. In the old times, Balts lived in the current territories of Lithuania, Latvia, Byelorussia, in North-West Ukraine, western skirts of Russia, Konigsberg Region (Kaliningrad Region) and North-East Poland. Prussian language is the language of Lettic branch which existed until the end of the 17th century – the beginning of the 18th century. Prussian lived between the lower reaches of the Vistula and the Nemunas. Latvian language is Eastern Lettic language similar to Lithuanian language. The territory of Latvia covers the seaside of Riga and Dauguva watershed. Lithuanian language began developing as a separate language of East Lettic branch in a southern part of East Balts in the 7th century. A place-name Lietuva (slavic form Litua) for the first time was mentioned in Kvedlinburg chronicles in Latin language dated in 1009 .

DIALECTS OF LITHUANIAN LANGUAGE. Lithuanian language has two following main dialects: of Higher Lithuania and Lower Lithuania. The dialect of Higher Lithuania separates into West, South and East according the pronunciation of mixed diphthongs an, am, en, em and vowels ą, ę. Lower Lithuania dialect is divided into West, South and North according the pronunciation of mixed diphthongs ie, uo. The largest amount of dialects data is gathered in Institute of Lithuanian language. The biggest paper in this field is a four-volume ‘Atlas of Lithuanian language‘ which was started to be issued in 1977.

FIRST LITHUANIAN WRITINGS. The first text in Lithuanian language is considered prayers ‘Father our‘, ‘Hello, Maria‘, ‘I believe in the God the Father‘ (in total 24 lines). The first writings in Lithuanian language appeared in the 16th century. The pioneers of Lithuanian writing are Abraomas Kulvietis (about 1510-1545) and Stanislovas Rapolionis (about 1500-1545). The first Lithuanian book is a Catechism by Martynas Mažvydas issued in 1547 in Konigsberg. The followers of Mažvydas are Baltramiejus Vilentas (about 1525-1587) and Jonas Bretkūnas (1536-1602). The first Lithuanian book in Lithuanian Grand Duchy is a ‘Catechism‘ by Mikalojus Daukša issued in 1595. The most important paper of Daukša is a collection of sermons ‘Postilė‘ translated from Polish language by Jokūbas Vujekas. One of the most important issues of Lithuanian writing of the 12th century is an original collection of sermons ‘Punktai sakymų‘ by Konstantinas Sirvydas.

The first vocabulary of Lithuanian language is a three-languages (Polish, Latin and Lithuanian) vocabulary by Konstantinas Sirvydas issued in about 1620. The first grammar of Lithuanian language is ‘Grammatica Litvanica‘ issued in 1653. It was written in Latin language by Danielius Kleinas (1609-1666). The most famous Lithuanian language scientists are Kazimieras Jaunius, Kazimieras Būga, etc.

ANNEXES LITHUANIAN LANGUAGE ALPHABET AND SOUNDS. CLASSIFICATION OF SOUNDS The sounds of a language are marked with 32 letters, vowels and consonants. All letters placed together in a certain order are called the ABC or alphabet.

The order of the letters in an alphabet should be learned by heart because it is impossible to use vocabularies, encyclopedias, indexes and other manuals arranged in alphabetic order without knowing it. We have also to remember the names of letters.

A a a K k ka Ą ą a nasal L l el B b bė M m em C c cė N n en Č č čė O o o D d dė P p pė E e e R r er Ę ę e nasal S s es Ė ė ė Š š eš F f ef T t tė G g gė U u u H h ha Ų ų u nasal I i i Ū ū u long Į į i nasal V v vė Y y i long Z z zė J j jot (as) Ž ž žė

The sounds of Lithuanian language are classified into vowels, consonants, diaphthongs and mixeded diaphthongs.

VOWELS

1. There are short and long , forward and back vowels. Forward vowels are pronouned by pushing the tongue forward. There are 6 forward vowels: e, ę, ė, i, į, y. Back vowels are pronouned by pushing the tongue a little backwards. There are 6 back vowels: a, ą, o, u, ų, ū. On these vowels usually depend the hardness and softness of a consonant pronounced before them.

SHORT VOWELS

2. Short vowels a, e, i, u are pronounced very short – shorter than half of a second. Four short vowels are used for marking: a, e, i, u. For example: aš, nešti, didelis, bus.

2a. Letter ‘o‘ marks a short vowel in the words of not Lithuanian origin and in some Lithuanian interjections. For example: 1) choras, odė, opera, telefonas, tomas; 2) dziopt, opa, op.

3. Vowels i, u in all parts of a word in stressed and unstressed syllable are short. For example: kiškis, liks, tiko, kiti, buvo, nesutaupė, nugabeno.

4. Short vowels a, e in a syllable of a stressed word theme can become longer but they are not long in a stressed syllable of the ending. For example: mama, gera, visa, tvoroje, baltoje, mane.

5. Short vowels a, e in a syllable of a stressed word theme can not become longer but short. For example: apgulė, bakstelėti, tavo, nešti, patekti, rasti.

LONG VOWELS Long vowels in a stressed and unstressed syllable are pronounced long: two times longer than short ones. There are 6 long vowels: a, o, e, ė, y, ū. There are 10 letters marking these sounds: a, e, o, ė, y, ū, ą, ę, į, ų. There are 10 vowels pronounced long: a, e, o, ė, y, ū, ą, ę, į, ų.

6. Long vowels are marked in long vowel letters: o, ė, y, ū, ą, ę, į, ų. For example: brolis, lėlė, rytas, kąsnis, ręstų, lįsti.

7. Vowels a, e in a syllable of a stressed word theme can not become longer and long vowels a, e. Long vowel sounds in such words are marked in letters a, e. For example: kala, raktas, stalas, ežeras, geria, kelias, takelis.

CONSONANTS

8. Consonants in Lithuanian language are classified into sonorant and devoice. They have to be remembered and learnt. The best way to do it is to write them down in alphabetical order.

Sonorant consonants. There are 14 sonorant consonants. They are dicided into the following four small groups: 2 in four each and 2 in three: b, d, dz, dž, g, h, j, l, m, n, r, v, z, ž.

Devoice consonants. There are 9 devoice consonants. They are divided into the following 3 small groups in three: c, ch, č, f, k, p, s, š, t.

SHIFT OF CONSONANTS

Consonants standing next to or near each other are often pronounced not in the same way as they are written. When speaking, our language implements are preparing to pronounce further sounds, thus, one or several first consonants we pronounce similar to the last one or standing next to consonants affect each other in comfortable to pronounce way in speech flow. There are five following shift cases: consonants become devoice, sonorant, resemblance, join, dissapear when pronounced.

DEVOICE

9. Sonorant consonants become devoice before devoice consonants. Check by choosing related word or form where after unclear consonant ould stand a vowel: consonant is highlighted by a vowel. For example: bėgti (read: bėkti) – bėgo, dirbti (read: dirpti) – dirbo.

Note. Sometimes we can not check vowels pronounced after a consonant or t where after g, k there is s: 1) spingsėti, spingsoti, spingsulė; 2) gunksnoti, gunkso, gunksojo.

10. When an sonorant consonant ž of the end of a prefix už- appears before a devoice consonant of a theme, ž becomes devoice and is pronounced as š.

We check by separating a prefix and remembering that there isn‘t a prefix uš- in Lithuanian language. We can not highlight an unclear consonant by a vowel because there is a consonant at the beginning of a theme. For example: užkrosnis (read: uškrosnis), užkristi (read: uškristi).

11. When the first component of compound words finishes in sonorant consonant, it becomes devoice before a devoice consonant of the second component and is pronounced devoice. We check the first component by choosing a related word or a form of the same word where after unclear consonant would stand a vowel. For example: medkirtys (read: metkirtys) – medis; puodšakė (read: puotšakė) – puodas.

12. Sonorant consonants z, ž become devoice before a devoice t and are pronounced like s, š. When doubting what to write: s or š, z or ž, we have to choose the third person of a present or past simple tense, where before d we pronounce z or ž. For example: girgžtelėti, girgžtelėjo (read: girkštelėti) – girgžda, girgždėjo.

Note. Can be checked with a vowel or d. For example: megzti, megztinis (read: mekstinis) – mezga, mezgė.

13. When appeared at the end of a word or before a word which starts with a devoid consonant, sonorant consonants are pronounced devoice but they are marked in letters of sonorant consonants. For example: jog (read: jok), kad (read: kat), tad (read: tat).

13a. When two or several devoice consonants stand next to each other, they are pronounced in the same way like written: there isn‘t any assimilation. For example: blykšta, bokštas, klimsta, krikštas, plokščias.

UPVOICE

14. Devoice consonants become sonorant before sonorant consonants. We check by choosing a relative word or form where after unclear consonant there is a vowel or a consonant t. For example: sukdavo, sukdamas (read: sugdavo, sugdamas) – suka, suko.

15. When prefixes ap-, ant-, at-, š-, prieš-, finishing in devoice consonants p, t, š, appear before an sonorant consonant, we pronounce b, d, ž. When checking, we identify the prefix and write it down. We can not highlight an unclear consonant by a vowel because there is a vowel at the beginning of a theme . For example: apdaras (read: abdaras), priešdėlis (read: prieždėlis).

16. When the first component of compound words finishes in devoice consonant, it becomes sonorant before the sonorant consonant of the second component. We check the first component by choosing a relative word or form where after an unclear consonant would be a vowel. For example: arbatžolė (read: arbadžolė) – arbata.

RESEMBLANCE

17. When appeared nex to, devoice consonants s and č make a combination in which a plosive - continuant č changes the pronounced before it continuant consonant s by consonant - sibilant consonant š. They are both pronounced like sibilant šč. There are some words in which šč is pronounced and written. When doubting, where before č to write s, and where š, we choose a relative word or its form in a way that after s would stand t. There are some words in which we can‘t do this. For example: anksčiau – anksti, aukščiau – aukštas.

18. Sonorant d in suffixes –dav-, -dam- changes the appeared before it devoice consonant s in a way that we pronounce z. When doubting if to write s or z, we choose a form of a relative word where instead of d stands t. For example: lįsdavo, lįsdamas (read: lįzdavo, lįzdamas) – lįsti.

CONVERGENCE

19. When to the same consonants appear next to each other, one of them is not pronounced: pussunkis – (read: pusunkis), pusseserė – (read: puseserė).

MIXED DIPHTHONGS

A close combination of two sounds in the same syllable is called a mixed diphthong. It distinguishes by a flowing articulation. According components, simple and mixed diphthongs are distinguished.

Simple diphthongs are the ones made of sounds of the same kind: either of two vowels or of two consonants.

Mixed diphthongs made of two vowels are called diphthongs. There are 6 diphthongs: ai, au, ei, ie, uo, ui.

Separately should be mentioned diphthongs of not Lithuanian origin: eu, oi, ou in international words. For example: Europa, boikotas, klounas.

Besides diphthongs, there are also simple mixed diphthongs made only of consonants (so called affricates): c /ts/, č /tš/, dz, dž. They are pronounced like one sound.

Mixed diphthongs are called compounds of sounds made of a vowel and a consonant. Mixed diphthongs consist of short vowels a, e, i, u and sonorant consonants l, m, n, r: al, am, an, ar, el, em, en, er, ul, um, un, ur, il, im, in, ir.

Mixed diphthongs of not Lithuanian origin ol, om, on, or sometimes occur in international words. For example: kolba, pompa, monteris, morfema.

Lithuanian words (usually at the end of the word and in compound words) sometimes consist of mixed diphthongs with long vowels: ė, y, o, ū + l, m, n, r. For example: vėl, kol, tol, žvaigždėms, galvoms, žvyrduobė, septynmetis, dūmtraukis.

PRONUNCIATION OF MIXED DIPHTHONGS

20. In words ieva, ieško, iešmas, ietis, paieška, a consonant j is pronounced before a diphthong ie. This j is also sometimes marked in writing. For example: jie, jiedu, Jiesia, Jieznas.

21. Short i and u in mixed diphthongs il, im, in, ir, ul, um, un, ur and ui are pronounced short. For example: tiltas, miltai, Vilnius, kurmis, stumti, uiti, guiti.

They would be pronounced incorrectly if short i and u in mixed diphthongs would be made longer. For example: Vylnius, kūrmis, pyrmas.

SYLLABLE

In the flow of speech, sounds are pronounced not separately but in certain combinations which are called syllables. A syllable is a part of word pronounced in one time. The number of vowels and diphthongs or mixed diphthongs in a word determines the number os syllables. Thus, the centre (basis) of Lithuanian syllable consists of vowels, diphthongs and mixed diphthongs. Only consonants can not make a syllable. They become a part of a syllable only standing next to a vowel: a-kis, na-mas, duo-na, lau-kas, kal-nas.

22. According the sounds making the basis of a syllable, long and short syllables are distinguished. Long syllables are the ones the basis of which is made of long vowels, diphthongs or mixed diphthongs: ą-žuolas, so-das, snie-gas, kal-nas, Vil-nius. The basis of short syllables consists of short vowels: aš, tu, ge-ir, ta-da.

Syllables can be stressed and unstressed. For example, in a word traukinys, the last syllable is stressed and the other syllables are unstressed (trau-ki-nys).

IMPORTANCE OF PRONUNCIATION AND ACCENTUATION

The pronunciation of standard language is less considered than accentuation, grammar, writing, etc. We have to keep its norms, especially when speaking publicly. For this reason, some fonetics must be known.

All sounds are classified into vowels, consonants and mixed diphthongs. According the pronunciation duration, vowels are divided into long and short (lupa, lūpa). The norm of standard language requires to distinguish the longiness strictly. Vowel ė in Lithuanian language is always long. Letters a, e refer to long and short vowels. Vowels i, u are always short.

Consonants are classified into devoice and sonorant, hard and soft. Consonants are soft if they stand before vowels i, e, ė, and before vowels a, o, u standing consonants are hard. Exception: pol'ka, val'sas, al'tas, sol'. Consonant l is often hardened, eg.: we pronounce buhalteris although it has to be pronounced buhal'teris. Sometimes in Lithuanian language ‘appear‘ Russian language vowels ы, э, eg.: šašlыkas (=šašlykas), protэstas (=protestas), cэntas (=centas). Also we have to remember the following rules:

1. To the same vowels after each other must be both pronounced, pvz.: kreivaakis, zoologija.

2. In standard language, two the same consonants are not pronounced, one is missed, eg.: iššoko (read. išoko).

3. Vowels o, e in international words are always short.

4. An especial attention has to be made that i and e, u and o, a and i mark not diphthongs but vowels and these wovels both have to be pronounced, eg.: diezas, prozaikas, virtuozas.

5. When consonants s and š, z and ž appear next to each other, only the second consonant is pronounced, eg.: pusšiltis (sk. pušiltis), užsienis (sk. usienis), pusžalis (sk. pužalis).

Accentation of words is connected with pronunciation. The stresses are not equal in all languages. For example, there are languages which have a constant stress (in Polish language, the second syllable from the end is stressed and in Latvian and Chech languages, the first syllable is stressed). The stress in Lithuanian language is variable: the first syllabel can be stressed, the middle or the end of word.

Before starting analysing accentuation, we have to remember certain concepts:

A stress of a word is the emphasis of one syllable in a word, eg.: asmeniškas, dokumentas, paskola.

Accent is the way of pronunciation of a stressed long syllable made of a vowel, diphthong or mixed diphthong, eg.: káltas – ka tas. Accent is important to understand the meaning of a word.

Start-firm accent appears when more emphasized is the beginning of the basis of the syllable when pronounced. Usually it is marked by the acute diactric, in diphthongs and mixed diphthongs written on the first component, eg.: výras, dárbas, sáulė.

End-firm accent appears when more emphasized and longer is the end of the basis of the syllable when pronounced. It is marked by a tilde, in diphthongs and mixed diphthongs written on the second component, eg.: muĩlas, gẽras, parlameñtas.

By grave stress mark are marked stressed short syllables, eg.: ràsti, kabinètas, protokòlas.

All nominals in Lithuanian language are classified into accentuation classes. There are four accentuations. Accentuation is determined according two cases: plural genitive or dative and plural accusative.

The first case includes constantly in a theme stressed nominals. If the second from the end syllable is stressed, accent will be start-firm. The other syllables are stressed differently. Eg.: bankas, banko, bankui, banką, banku, banke, bankai, bankų, bankams, bankus, bankais, bankuose.

The second case includes nominals which in plural dative or genitive have the stress in a theme, in the second from the end syllable and in plural accusative the stress is at the end. The second stressed from the end syllable is end-firm or short. The other syllables are stressed differently. Eg.: ranka, rankos, rankai, ranką, ranka, rankoje, rankos, rankų, rankoms, rankas, rankomis, rankose, raštas, rašto, raštui, raštą, raštu, rašte, raštai, raštų, raštams, raštus, raštais, raštuose.

The third case includes nominals which in plural dative are at the end and in plural accusative the stress is in a theme. If the second from the end syllable is stressed, its accent is start-firm. The other syllables are stressed differently. Eg.: galva, galvos, galvai, galvą, galva, galvoje, galvos, galvų, galvoms, galvas, galvomis, galvose, darbas, darbo, darbui, darbą, darbu, darbe, darbai, darbų, darbams, darbus, darbais, darbuose.

The fourth case includes nominals which in plural dative and accusative have a stress in the ending. The second syllable from the end is short or long end-firm. The other syllables are stressed differently. Eg.: rasa, rasos, rasai, rasą, rasa, rasoje, rasos, rasų, rasoms, rasas, rasomis, rasose, laukas, lauko, laukui, lauką, lauku, lauke, laukai, laukų, laukams, laukus, laukais, laukuose.

A noun is a part of speech denoting a thing. In grammar a thing is what is considered individual: namas, žmogus, laimė, skausmas, rašymas, grožis.

Nouns denoting concrete things understood with feelings are considered concrete and the rest are attributed to the class of abstract nouns. Their content consists of various actions, features, phenomena, everything what is imagined as individual: grožis (gražus), gėris (geras), sunkumas (sunkus), meilė (mylėti).

From other aspect nouns are classified into common and proper.

Common noun denotes a thing as a representative of the entire of the same things. Eg., a city denotes what is general to all cities and Vilnius is a unique city, the capital of Lithuania.

Proper nouns are individual names of cities, rivers, lakes, mountains, sky bodies, people, etc.: the Sun, the Earth, the Moon are used as proper and common nouns.

There are two genders of nouns: masculine and feminine. Masculine nouns have the endings –as, -is, -ys, -(i)uos, -uo: vyras, brolis, vagis, grėblys, sūnus, sodžius, vanduo; and feminine nouns have the endings -a, -ė, -i, -is, -uo: šaka, katė, duktė, marti, avis, sesuo.

At present nouns have two numbers – singular and plural. Singular denotes one thing, plural denotes more than one thing: agurkas – agurkai, gėlė – gėlės, eglė – eglės.

Long ago there was also dual number denoting two things and now there are only residuals in spoken language and fiction literature: du vaiku, dvi ranki.

Most of nouns are inflected by numbers but there are also many uninflected nouns. Uninflected nouns are the following: baimė, garbė, laimė, kančia, nerimas, žydėjimas.

A case is a form of a noun indicating its role in words compound and sentence. A system of cases in Lithuanian language consists of seven cases: nominative, genitive, dative, accusative, ablative, locative and vocative. Their order could be also different because vocative is directly related to nominative. A pair vocative-nominative is connected with the meaning of a name and addressing: by vocative we address to people (narrower meaning) and by nominative we name and address (wider meaning). Nominative indicates the independence of a noun when it denotes an actor and stands in a sentence as a subjective: Mikas kaip tik laiku išgirsta dundėjimą. Genitive is a adjunct case making compounds with verbs and with nouns: Trokštu draugo arčiau. Dative denotes a thing to which something is done and in a sentence it usually stands as an object: Čia mes prisiekėme savo posmais tarnauti žemei, grožiui ir žmogui. Accusative denotes a thing and stands as an object: Žemė kėlė žolę, žolė kėlė rasą, rasa kėlė pasagėlę, pasagėlė – žirgą. Ablative has many meanings but the most important of them is an instrument meaning. For this reason it is called ablative (Lat. instrumentalis): Kirviais turėdavo prasikirsti kelią. Locative is a case of circumstances. Its meanings depend only on the meaning of a noun: Troboje net galva sukosi nuo dūmų. Negi kurio žento malonei atsiduosime senatvėje. Inflection of nouns in cases and numbers is called a declension. The endings of cases indicate not only a case and number but also a gender of a noun (namas – namai, brolis – broliai, šaka – šakos, gėlė – gėlės).
