뜻
A greeting for someone arriving.
문화적 배경
Hospitality often involves 'vaišės' (treats). If you say 'Sveiki atvykę', be prepared to offer at least a glass of water or tea immediately. In villages, guests were historically greeted with black rye bread and salt on a linen towel as a sign of peace and health. In Lithuanian business culture, 'Sveiki atvykę' is usually accompanied by a firm handshake, but only after the guest has fully crossed the threshold (never shake hands over the threshold!). Lithuanian startups often use 'Sveiki atvykę' in their onboarding screens to create a 'hometown' feel, even if the app is global.
The Default Rule
If you are unsure of the gender or talking to a crowd, always use 'Sveiki atvykę'. It is never considered 'wrong', just less specific.
Don't say it to yourself
If you enter a room, wait for the host to say it. If you say it, you are welcoming the host to their own house!

The 'Back' Variation
Use 'Sveiki sugrįžę' for tourists returning to a hotel or friends coming back from a trip. It makes you sound much more fluent.
