When you're discussing the environment around us, oras is a key word. It can refer to the general atmospheric conditions, like if it's hot or cold, rainy or sunny. For example, you might say "Koks oras šiandien?" (What's the weather like today?).
But it also means "air" – the stuff we breathe. So, if you open a window for some fresh air, you'd be letting in "grynas oras." Understanding this dual meaning is really helpful for everyday conversations in Lithuanian.

10 个问题Oras means both 'weather' and 'air' in Lithuanian. You'll need to figure out which meaning is intended based on the context of the sentence.
It's all about context! If you're talking about conditions outside (rain, sun, temperature), it's probably 'weather'. If you're talking about breathing or the stuff around us, it's 'air'. Don't worry, you'll get the hang of it.
Sure!
- Koks šiandien oras? - What's the weather like today?
- Geras oras. - Good weather.
Absolutely.
- Grynas oras. - Fresh air.
- Trūksta oro. - I'm short of breath (literally 'lacks air').
Oras is a masculine noun. This is important for how it changes its endings in different grammatical cases.
You would say blogas oras. 'Blogas' means bad, and since 'oras' is masculine, 'blogas' also takes the masculine ending.
That would be karštas oras. Again, 'karštas' (hot) matches the masculine 'oras'.
No, oras itself is a singular noun. You'd still say koks buvo oras vakar ir šiandien? (what was the weather like yesterday and today?) rather than trying to make 'oras' plural.
Yes, a very common one is oro uostas, which means 'airport' (literally 'air port'). Another is oro temperatūra (air temperature).
It's pronounced roughly like 'OH-ras'. The 'o' is like the 'o' in 'go', and the 'a' is like the 'a' in 'father'. The 'r' is a rolled 'r', but don't stress too much about perfecting that initially.
