Used to celebrate someone's success.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
When congratulating someone in person, it is customary to shake hands and look them in the eye. If you bring flowers, ensure there is an odd number (1, 3, 5, etc.). Name days (Vardadienis) are often celebrated with as much enthusiasm as birthdays. It is very polite to say 'Sveikinu su vardadieniu!' During a toast, the person giving the toast will often start with 'Sveikinu...' and then give a short speech before everyone clinks glasses. Lithuanians can be modest. When you say 'Sveikinu', they might say 'Ai, čia nieko tokio' (Oh, it's nothing), but they still appreciate the gesture.
Keep it simple
If you forget the grammar, just saying 'Sveikinu!' with a big smile is always correct and appreciated.
Case matters
If you add 'su', make sure the next word ends in '-u' or '-ia' (Instrumental case).
