English term or phrase: latvian & lithuanian language
latvian language = letonski ili latvijski jezik ?

lithuanian language = litvanski ili litavski jezik ?

citat iz jednog novinskog clanka:
"Ispravno hrvatski se kaže litvanski jezik, ali litavski narod. Može se kazati i da je litavski jezik, a zemlja je Litva, a ne više Litvanija kako je bilo prije."
aha! tek mi sad nista nije jasno :)

hvala!
