More and more people today forget their native dialects and adopt the literary language. It has an irreversible impact on the peculiarity of our language, which is the object of interest of Lithuanian language researchers. How would the works of Lithuanian writers sound if they would have been written in their native dialects? During the educational activity, we will invite pupils to get  acquainted with personalities of different dialects as well as offer to listen to other people speak and try to speak in various native dialects themselves. Together we will discover the beauty of the Lithuanian language that arises from its unique features.

Key words: Lithuanian language, dialects, traditions, culture, literature, personalities.
