Latvians are brutally honest, it seems! In Japan, when a woman is pregnant she is "congratulatory" (omedeta) lol. Japanese like to pretend that nothing is wrong, ever!
Honestly you must be a witch... I m listening to your podcasts videos often, and today morning gave birth to my daughter, in hospital at the moment, was searching something new and interesting... And here you are talking about pregnancies and so on.
@@irregularLatvian wish i could post picture here tho. Well, she is super tiny, wrinkled like an old lady and is half Latvian half Polish. I m still working on my latvian but thanx to your channel and my husband it's getting better and better. Also since we have kids, it comes even faster :) Thank you for doing an awesome job
Ahh, Im extremely pleased to learn this. I’m also one day hoping for my half Latvian baby. :))) Congratulations to you both and I wish you a wonderful experience raising this small cute chicken :)))
Great video again, thank you. I would say that in English when asked 'How are you?' the response would be 'troubled' not difficult but you can be 'troubled by a difficult life.' Someone who calls themself difficult means they are being awkward towards someone although rarely does someone confess to being 'difficult', it's often pointed out to them.
Well, the literal translation of "kā tev iet" is "how's it going [for you]", which you could answer with "it's difficult", so I guess that's where the confusion happened...
While I realize that the whole episode is around the difficulties, I beg to differ that a most typical answer to "kā tev iet?" will be "normāli". The Latvian "normāli", however, is sort of below average.
I think my head exploded, watching this episode... hilarious and mind-boggling....
Love hearing Latvian expressions! and their origins/reasons.

@@irregularLatvian strange language, davis bertans brought me here, nba basketball, greetings from croatia
7:18 Perfectly executed Latvian Deathstare. Reminds me of Māte or manu Vecmāmiņas, (please excuse mispronunciations).
(Sniff)

Everybody was waiting for the word "sūdīgi"🌝

This is my new favorite channel ever! I wish these videos had been around when I started to try and learn Latvian so many years ago!
Another great video, Anete - thank you to you and the IR team :)
Спасибо за нескучный урок! По-английски говорю свободно, а вот латышский еще знаю не так хорошо.
Thanks ! you are the best :D !
I m everytime again surprised, how similar Latvian and German are in the Rules and many Words. Latvian - gurkis, German - gurken 😁
My mother who was Latvian was always happiest when she was pregnant… the smile of a Madonna. (Seven children)

Thank you for the video. Can you make videos of daily most common conversation for newcomers in Latvia?
Do u give private lessons???? Your videos are one of a kind! Literally
You cut your beautiful hair D: it looks good but im still sad....
Hard life also could be translated as smaga dzīve.

Paldies Germane!
This is hilarious
Oh, common, who says "grūti"?! It's mostly "paldies, sū...gi". XD
Nav slikti
