Bedeutung
Making bread in an oven.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Bread is traditionally sliced by the head of the household. It is considered disrespectful to place a loaf of bread upside down on the table. Black rye bread is a common gift when visiting someone's new home (įkurtuvės), often paired with salt. In villages, the 'raugas' (sourdough starter) is often passed down through generations, some being over 100 years old. There is a massive 'artisan bread' movement in Vilnius and Kaunas, where 'kepti duoną' has become a trendy, meditative hobby.
The Scent of Home
Mentioning that a house 'kvepia kepama duona' (smells like baking bread) is one of the highest compliments for a Lithuanian home.
Don't say 'Bake the Toast'
Remember that 'kepti' is for the whole loaf. For slices, use 'skrudinti'.

The Nasal A
Even though 'ą' isn't nasal anymore, pronouncing it as a long 'aaa' makes you sound much more native.
