Easy Lithuanian: Accusative Pt. 1/3

[@videomokykla]

I hope you can understand what I say in the video. Even when I turn off my bass and turn the volume up to maximum, it gets too loud for listening. Maybe my computer or speakers are somehow different. Nevertheless, I can't do anything with the videos I had already uploaded.

Yes, I have noticed it. However, there shouldn't be any problems with hearing the video if you turn up the volume a bit (you can turn up both - in KZbin and in your computer). I hope you can understand what I say.

Excuse me for the criticism, but it seems to me, that in most of your videos the sound is unusual low.

labas! is there any reason why the accusative form of duktė is dukterį and not dukterę? (I understand sesuo to seserį since it doesn't have an -o pattern. And I like it that you actually explain the reasons why some words are written the way they are, like why it's sekmadienis and not septadienis. I asked my teacher about it and she just said it's an exemption to the rule, like any other grammatical rules.)

Thanks for the feedback! Well, it can't ever be dukterę, because the nominative would have to be dukterė. If we were robots, then perhaps the accusative would be duktę (ė>ę). But it's impossible. Now about the į. It's similar to the declension of vandenį, akmenį, ..., but the difference is several case endings, the gender and suffix -er- instead of -en-. Hope it helps. P.S. nowadays dukra is most frequently used for 'daughter'. Sometimes mergaitė as well (girl).

I've noticed it on maximum volume in both - player and system.
