Painting Belonging
This article explores the role of participatory mural art as a catalyst for community development, symbolic dialogue, and place-based identity formation in Kaunas, Lithuania. Drawing on community mural projects across distinct urban neighborhoods, the study employs a multimethod qualitative design that combines ethnographic fieldwork, semistructured interviews, participatory observation, and multimodal semiotic analysis. Using MAXQDA for thematic…

Promoting student engagement
Introduction The complex phenomenon of engagement in the research draws upon the sociocultural theories and emphasizes the three interrelated dimensions: behavioral, emotional/affective, and cognitive. Student engagement in academic life is a key factor for student wellbeing, making it essential to address the issues related to student engagement to be able to foster overall academic success. The research has shown that the COVID-19 pandemic impa…
Verb Valency Patterns in Academic Register
The article analyses the main characteristics of verb valency patterns and behaviour of verbs in syntactic structures in clauses or sentences. Herbst claims that valency, as well as collocations, can be considered as an area for errors for foreign language learners as they involve idiosyncratic knowledge that has to be learned (2010, p. 225). That is why the studies of the verb valency patterns from the syntactic point of view have an obvious app…
Translation of the Russian Nadsat Slang in Anthony Burgess’ Novel A Clockwork Orange into Lithuanian
The translation of slang has always caused many problems for translators because of its cultural untranslatability. Its translation is a highly specific undertaking requiring creativity to render the effect of the source text in a form appropriate for the target culture and audience. Thus, the paper analyses the Lithuanian translation of an artificial language Nadsat in Anthony Burgess’ novel A Clockwork Orange, giving special focus to the Russia…

Equivalence is the leading subject in translation studies; accordingly, many different theories on equivalence have been discussed in detail within this field over the past few decades. Equivalence in translation is affected by many different aspects, i.e., aspects of meaning between words and expressions, grammar and participants in various communicative situations, semantics, pragamtics, etc. The concept of equivalence with the focus on equival…
Translation Transformations of Lexical Collocations
Translation involves taking various aspects into consideration in different languages, and thus, a common problem for a translator is to find corresponding expressions in the target language (TL). Collocation in its linguistic sense is a relatively new phenomenon and its definition is not fully agreed on. Linguists define the notion of collocation variously: as a combination of words which usually appear together, a grouping of words in a sentenc…
Lithuanian Past Simple Tenses and Their Equivalents in English
The paper provides the analysis of Lithuanian simple past tenses, their meanings and equivalents in English. Grammatical forms determine two simple past tenses of the verb in Lithuanian: the past simple tense and the past frequentative tense. The past frequentative tense distinguishes Lithuanian from all other Indo-Euro-pean languages. The specialists of historical comparative linguistics emphasize its exclusiveness, novelty, however, the origin …
The Status of Lithuanian Compound Past Tenses and Their Equivalents in English
The paper covers quite a controversial subject in Lithuanian linguistics, i.e. Lithuanian compound past tenses (which are also referred to as analytic tenses or analytic predicates). The status of Lithuanian analytic predicate and its relation to finite verb forms was widely discussed in the second half of the 20th century. Therefore, it can be stated that there are three solutions proposed in Lithuanian linguistics: grammars include analytic ten…
Grammatical Category of Evidentiality and its Expression in Lithuanian
Of all the Indo-European languages only Lithuanian has sustained the old usage of participles which is motivated by the structural features of old simple sentences. Nevertheless, in the course of time the use of participles has become more restricted and their modal function which is specific, uncharacteristic and untypical of other languages has been fading away. Participles perform the function of the category of evidentiality in the Lithuanian…
