*** Audio Lessons ***



The text is from Beginner's Lithuanian
right click on the links to download files
left click on the links to play the audio or see the script
I would like to thank Aldona and Ausra for all their help in recording and editing my scripts
If you use these audio lessons, I urge you to buy the book Beginner's Lithuanian.
You used to be able to get it from Amazon.com for about $15 plus $4 S/H

Now, it appears the book is no longer in print or something. It now costs a lot more.
Our class switched to Complete Lithuanian for the 2012-2013 school year.
For the 2013-2014 year we will use Colloquial Lithuanian 2nd Edition.
It costs about $35. The 2nd edition has minor changes from the 1st edition.
If you would like to change these audio files in any way,
you can download audacity from here http://audacity.sourceforge.net
audacity is the program I used to record the lessons and
is very useful when editing and playing them too.
lesson00 is an introduction to the lessons and some explanation
