Loanwords: a glimpse of textbooks of the Lithuanian language

Author(s): Povilas Rudzevičius
Subject(s): Language and Literature Studies
Published by: Lietuvių Kalbos Institutas
Keywords: Loanwords; actual use; textbooks; learning; Standard Lithuanian

Summary/Abstract: In the textbooks of the Lithuanian language loanwords are treated separately and often are outside the scope of other linguistic issues. Moreover, they are not presented very consistently and systemically. Actual use and examples given in the textbooks are completely different; therefore, when revising the material of textbooks, it is important that loanwords are selected with more precision, considering the results of research into actual use.
