Lithuanian Language Courses in London
Lithuanian is the official state language of the Republic of Lithuania and is spoken by about 4 million native speakers. It is also an official language of the European Union. Lithuanian is one of the two living Baltic languages, along with Latvian. The Baltic languages form their own distinct branch of the Indo-European languages.Lithuania or the Republic of Lithuania, is a country in northern Europe. Situated along the south-eastern shore of the Baltic Sea, it shares borders with Latvia to the north, Belarus to the southeast, Poland and the Russian enclave of the Kaliningrad Oblast to the southwest. Lithuania has been a member state of the European Union since 1 May 2004.83.6% of the Lithuanian population are ethnic Lithuanians who speak the Lithuanian language. Several sizable minorities exist in Lithuania, such as the Poles (6.7%), the Russians (6.3%), and the Belarusians (1.2%).
As a result of the Soviet occupation, most Lithuanians can communicate in Russian. According to the Eurostat poll around 80% of the Lithuanians can hold a conversation in Russian and almost all are familiar with the most general phrases and expressions. Nowadays, most Lithuanian schools teach English as the first foreign language, but students may also study German, or in some schools, French. Schools where Russian and Polish are the primary languages of education exist in the areas populated by these minorities.
In 2003, prior to joining the European Union, Lithuania had the highest economic growth rate amongst all candidate and member countries, reaching 8.8% in the third quarter. In 2004 the growth in GDP was 7.3%, in 2005 7.6% and in 2006 7.4% . Most of the trade Lithuania conducts is within the European Union.
