Dear community, 

Whenever you go abroad it’s always good to learn a few basics, especially when you’re moving there. In this post you will find a lesson of basic greetings in Latvian that, when used, will sure be appreciated by locals. 

Greetings Lesson: 

·       Hello – Sveiki  

·       Goodbye – Uzredzēšanos  

·       Good morning – Labrīt 

·       Good afternoon – Labdien 

·       Good evening – Labvakar

 

·       My name is … – Mans vārds ir..  

·       What is your name? – Kāds ir tavs vārds? 

·       Nice to meet you – Prieks iepazīties 
 

·       How are you? – Ka tev klājas? 

·       I’m fine thank you – Labi, paldies 
 

·       Please – Lūdzu 

·       Thank you – Paldies 

·       Excuse me – Atvainojiet
