자주 하는 실수

You used the Nominative instead of the Dative. Remember that the recipient must take the -ui ending.

Wrong: Aš duodu dovaną draugas.
정답: Aš duodu dovaną draugui.

Reikia requires the Dative case for the person needing. Use 'Man' instead of 'Aš'.

Wrong: Aš reikia knygos.
정답: Man reikia knygos.

While grammatically okay, keep the indirect object close to the verb for better flow.

Wrong: Duodu dovaną mamai su gėlėmis.
정답: Duodu gėles mamai.
