I
You (formal) Jūs

Lithuanian language has another Word for "You", which is "Tu". The less well you know the person you are addressing and the older / more important that person is, the less polite it is to use "Tu" when addressing him/her, therefore if unsure one should always use "Jūs" (in plural, only "Jūs" is possible).

Other number names are formed in the same name as English from the numbers above. For example, 21 is "Dvidešimt vienas" ("Twenty one"), 45 is "Keturiasdešimt penki" ("Forty four"), 2532 is "Du tūkstančiai penki šimtai trisdešimt du" ("Two thousand five hundreds thirty two").

Exceptions are the following: if there is more than one hundred, thousand, etc. in the number, then plural is used ("šimtai" instead of "šimtas", "tūkstančiai" instead of "tūkstantis"). If there is just one hundred, thousand, etc. then Word "one" is not written.

For numbers higher than trillion, Lithuanian names are similar to English names, however the written form is somewhat different and ending "as" is attached.
