معنی
A welcoming invitation into a room or house.
زمینه فرهنگی
It is considered rude to talk or shake hands over the threshold of a door. You should always invite the person to 'užeiti' first. When you say 'Prašom užeiti', guests will often expect to be offered tea or coffee immediately. It's not just an invitation to enter, but an invitation to socialize. In rural areas, 'Prašom užeiti' might be followed by an invitation to see the 'ūkis' (farm) or the garden, showing pride in one's property. Taking off shoes is standard practice when someone says 'Prašom užeiti'. The host might provide 'šlepetės' (slippers).
The Power of the Smile
In Lithuania, 'Prašom užeiti' is always more effective when accompanied by a genuine smile and a gesture toward the interior.
Don't Forget the Shoes
If you are the one being told 'Prašom užeiti', look at the floor. If there are shoes there, take yours off immediately.
