Lithuanian (lietuviu; kalba), is the official state language of Lithuania and is recognised as one of the official languages of the European
Union. There are about 2.96 million native Lithuanian speakers in Lithuania and about 170,000 abroad. Lithuanian is a Baltic language, closely
related to Latvian; however, they are not mutually intelligible. It is written in the Roman script.
The Lithuanian language has two dialects: Aukštaic / Aukstaitian, (Highland Lithuanian), Žemaic/Žemaitiu (Samogitian, Lowland Lithuanian).
There are significant differences between standard Lithuanian and Samogitian. The modern Samogitian dialect formed in the 13th-16th centuries
under the influence of the Curonian language. Lithuanian dialects are closely connected with ethnographical regions of Lithuania.
Dialects are divided into subdialects (patarme.s). Both dialects have 3 subdialects. Samogitian is divided into West, North and South;
Aukštaitian into West (Suvalkiec(iai), South (Dzu-kai) and East. Each subdialect is divided into smaller units - speeches (šnektos).
The standard Lithuanian is derived mostly from Western Aukštaitian dialects, including the Eastern dialect of Lithuania Minor. Influence of
other dialects is more significant in vocabulary of the standard Lithuanian. Source: Wikipedia
