معنی
Stating that something is correct.
زمینه فرهنگی
Lithuanians value 'tiesa' over social 'white lies'. Being direct is seen as a sign of respect and honesty. In many Lithuanian folk tales, the hero must speak the 'tiesa' to overcome a mythological creature or a curse. The word 'Tiesa' is frequently used as a single-word comment on Facebook or Instagram to show agreement with a quote or a meme. During the Soviet occupation, 'tiesa' was a loaded word, as the official newspaper was called 'Tiesa' (the Lithuanian version of 'Pravda'), leading to much dark humor about the lack of truth in it.
The Tag Question Trick
Add 'tiesa?' to the end of any statement to turn it into a question. It's the easiest way to sound fluent.
Noun vs Adverb
Remember that 'tiesa' is a noun. Don't use it to describe how someone did something (use 'teisingai' instead).
