Language notes: The language used in the dialogue reflects the peculiarities of the spoken Lithuanian language that do not correspond to the standard Lithuanian language. For instance, the accentuation of some words in the dialogue is incorrect. The usage of the word “Na” („well‟) instead of a word of affirmation should be avoided at the beginning of the sentence.
