المعنى
Receiving a present from someone.
خلفية ثقافية
When you receive flowers, they must be an odd number (1, 3, 5...). Even numbers are for mourning. Name Days (Vardadieniai) are often celebrated with small gifts, sometimes more traditionally than birthdays. It is polite to open a gift immediately upon receiving it in front of the giver. The phrase 'Nereikėjo' (You shouldn't have) is a common, modest way to react when receiving a gift.
Use the Diminutive
Say 'dovanėlė' to sound warmer and more like a native speaker when talking about small gifts.
The 'ą' tail
Never forget the tail on 'dovaną' when it's the object. It's a common spelling mistake for learners.
