뜻
A broad urban roadway.
문화적 배경
Gediminas Avenue is the most iconic 'plati gatvė' in the capital. It was built in 1836 and has changed names many times (St. George, Mickiewicz, Stalin, Lenin) reflecting the country's turbulent history. Laisvės Alėja (Liberty Avenue) is a unique 'plati gatvė' because it is entirely pedestrian. It is a symbol of Kaunas' identity as the temporary capital during the interwar period. Many 'plačios gatvės' in residential districts like Šeškinė or Karoliniškės were designed for functionality and scale, often lacking the human-centric feel of older streets. Today, there is a movement to 'narrow' some wide streets to make more room for trees and bicycles, a process called 'gatvių humanizavimas' (humanization of streets).
Gender Match

Don't say 'Platus'
Avoid saying 'Platus gatvė'. It's a very common beginner mistake that sounds like 'Wide (masculine) street (feminine)'.
