Or if you say ačiū “thank you” to somebody, his/her answer most probably will be - nėra už ką - “not at all” Foreigners say about us: Lithuanian beer is so good and cheap Lithuanian girls are very beautiful Basketball and beer is one of most important things to Lithuanian man Feature of Lithuanian people is that if you offer them something to drink or eat, they will most probably say – ne- “no”, but it is just trying to be polite
