Random quote: "Mes, lietuviai, esam mįslinga tauta. Mes vis dar savo dvasioje tebesiblaškom tarp buvusių valdovų imperinės pilies ant Gedimino kalno ir susmegusios į žemę vargdienio lūšnos, vis dar nedrįsdami praverti langų ir mesti drąsų žvilgsnį į Lietuvos rytojaus viziją." Vytautas Alantas (1902 - 1990)

| The words vunderkindai (pl.), vunderkindas (sg.) in modern Lithuanian came via Russian вундеркинды (pl.), вундеркинд (sg.). The are Russian loanwords in Lithuanian that are used in "high, culture" language. It's not a surprise. Lithuanian became i.e. realised themselves as nation in the end of 19th - beginning of 20th centuries i.e. living in Russian Empire. Russian classical authors were known, were read and not supripse words that not existed in Lithuanian were borowed from Russian. | |
