What locals actually say

Nu jo, aišku...

Yeah, sure...
Nu jo can signal reluctant agreement or skepticism, while aišku here may sound dismissive rather than genuinely reassuring.

Tai ką, varom?

So, shall we get going?
Varom is a colloquial form meaning “let’s go,” not specifically “we drive,” and tai ką signals a move toward action.

Tu čia rimtai?

Are you serious?
Čia literally means “here,” but in this construction it is an emphatic conversational particle expressing disbelief, not location.

Kainelė tai kosmosas.

That price is absolutely nuts.
The diminutive ending in „kainelė“ makes the price sound ironically excessive, while „tai“ adds colloquial emphasis.

Duok dar biškį, bo skanu.

Give me a little more, it’s so good.
„Biškį“ is a casual spoken form meaning “a little,” and „bo“ is a colloquial “because,” making the request sound informal and conversational.

Mano tėvukai sekmadienį užsuks.

My folks are popping round on Sunday.
„Tėvukai“ is an affectionate diminutive for parents, signaling warmth and familiar everyday speech.

Šefas vėl užvertė darbais, vos spėju suktis.

The boss has piled work on me again, and I can barely keep up.
„Užvertė darbais“ is a vivid Lithuanian construction meaning someone has overloaded you with work, while „šefas“ is an informal word for boss.

Orai išsidirbinėja: ryte saulė, dabar pila kaip iš kibiro.

The weather’s playing games: sunny this morning, now it’s tipping down.
„Išsidirbinėja“ personifies the weather in a strongly colloquial way, and „pila kaip iš kibiro“ is a Lithuanian simile for very heavy rain.
