Telling someone to move faster.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Lithuanians are very punctual. If you are 5 minutes late, you will likely hear 'Paskubėk' or a comment about the time. In Lithuanian business culture, 'Paskubėkite' is used sparingly. It's often replaced by 'Lauksime jūsų atsakymo' (We will wait for your answer) to be more polite. Grandparents in Lithuania often use 'Suskubk' instead of 'Paskubėk', which is a slightly older, more traditional form. Young people in Vilnius often use the English 'Hurry' or 'Davai' (from Russian) alongside 'Paskubėk'.

Don't be too bossy
In Lithuania, saying 'Paskubėk' too often can make you seem impatient or rude. Use it only when necessary.
