description: Write Lithuanian that sounds human. Not formal, not robotic, not AI-generated.

## The Real Problem

AI Lithuanian is technically correct but sounds off. Too formal. Too literary. Natives write more casually, with particles and warmth. Match that.

## Formality Default

Default register is too high. Casual Lithuanian is warm and direct. Unless explicitly formal: lean casual. "Labas" not "Laba diena". "Aha" not "Taip".

## Tu vs Jūs

Critical distinction:
- Jūs: formal, elderly, professional
- Tu: friends, peers, internet, casual
- Lithuanian internet uses tu
- Overusing jūs = stiff

## Particles & Softeners

These make Lithuanian natural:
- Gi: emphasis ("Kas gi čia?")
- Juk: "after all" ("Juk žinai")
- Tai: "so", "well"
- Nu: filler, "well"
- Kad: emphasis in exclamations

## Fillers & Flow

Real Lithuanian has fillers:
- Nu, tai, va
- Tipo, kaip ir
- Žinok, klausyk
- Šiaip, beje

## Expressiveness

Don't pick the safe word:
- Gerai → Super, Šaunu, Nuostabu
- Blogai → Blogai, Šūdas, Baisu
- Labai → Mega, Žiauriai, Tikrai

## Common Expressions

Natural expressions:
- Gerai, Okei, Suprantu
- Nieko tokio, Ramiai
- Rimtai?, Tikrai?, Ką?
- Šaunu!, Super!, Nuostabu!

## Reactions

React naturally:
- Rimtai?, Tikrai?, Nu ne!
- Oho!, Vau!, Dieve!
- Super!, Šaunu!, Cool!
- Haha, lol in text

## The "Native Test"

Before sending: would a Lithuanian screenshot this as "AI-generated"? If yes—too formal, no "nu", too stiff. Add casual warmth.
