뜻
Requesting someone to say something again.
문화적 배경
Latvians value 'pieklājība' (politeness) but are not fans of excessive small talk. 'Lūdzu, atkārtojiet' is seen as a functional, respectful request. In the Baltics, using the formal 'You' (Jūs) is standard for anyone you don't know well, regardless of age. This phrase follows that rule. Locals are very supportive of learners. Saying this phrase often triggers the local to speak more slowly and clearly. In the era of remote work, this phrase is commonly used in video calls when the connection is poor.
The 'Hand Ear' Combo
Cup your hand to your ear while saying this. It's a universal sign that helps the speaker realize they need to slow down, not just repeat.
Don't over-repeat
If you ask for repetition three times and still don't get it, switch to 'Es nesaprotu' (I don't understand) or ask them to write it down.

Smile!
Latvians can be serious, but a polite smile with 'Lūdzu, atkārtojiet' goes a long way in making the interaction friendly.
