his is a charming
old textbook, still my favorite despite its age. For one thing, it
does not sacrifice traditional Lithuanian values on the "altar of
modernity."
You'll find it online
at Amazon booksellers, along with more illustrations and
sample pages. At times I have seen it available used for around eight
dollars.
And
now: recordings!
Since there were no sound recordings available, I decided to make
these with a digital recorder and the generous help of two Lithuanian
students. Every lesson and extra reading, and most of the grammar
examples: about five hours total time- all indexed and interactive.
Listen
to a sample:
If your browser runs a late version Media Player, you can hear a sample
from page 51, lesson 6, A
beautiful Day. The text and sound will open in a separate
window which you may close when it finishes (size: 200K- it will take
a little while to load on a slow connection)
Find
the sound track you need instantly.
Access to the recordings is through a simple browser interface making
navigation quicker and more accurate than traditional tape cassettes:
no more frustrating spooling back and forth. Just click on the page
where you are working, and you are there instantly! Take a look at
this illustration.
