Lithuanian review: all 23 articles done

The English articles are the source; the Lithuanian ones were machine-translated
from them. This PR reads every Lithuanian article in full and fixes what a
Lithuanian physicist would never write. Slang, jokes and deliberate
tongue-in-cheek lines are kept.

23 of 23 articles reviewed. 48 snippets remain, separate pass.

The defect classes that kept recurring

Words that do not exist in Lithuanian. atpaukimas, matuojamumas,
sufiguruoja, tilptis, kvadratorius, auksinė vidurį, Polkių.

False friends. gabus (talented, of people) for capable, twice in two
different articles · įsigijimas (a purchase) for data acquisition ·
prisiėmiau (took on a burden) for I assumed · Flotas (a naval fleet) for a
drone fleet · prisijungia (logs in) for connects · regionas (geographic)
for a spectral region.

A physics error. silicio pluoštas is silicon fibre. The English says
silica fibre. Silica is SiO2, silicon is Si; optical fibre is fused silica,
which is kvarcas in Lithuanian. Two instances, one of them the conclusion about
what the next build uses.

Meaning reversals. ne veltui argued the opposite of the English thesis
line "is not free" · keičiant visą lentelę inverted a colour-chart claim.

Terminology a physicist would not use. frekvencija -> dažnis, 21
instances with gender agreement migrated · smaigalys (a spear tip) -> smailė
for a spectral peak · triukšmo grinda -> triukšmo lygis, 10 instances ·
harmoninės -> harmonikos · grotelių dažnis -> žingsnis, since d is a
spacing not a frequency · režimas -> moda for vibrational modes ·
induktyvumas (inductance) where the part is a ritė (inductor).

Invisible characters. Two Cyrillic а U+0430 inside Latin words, one soft
hyphen U+00AD inside neiš­lygiuojant.

Grammar. Gender disagreement throughout, most visibly difrakcinis grotelės
(grotelės is feminine plural) in the alt text describing the central discovery ·
case governance, tikėtis + genitive, paklūsti + dative · dalinti ->
dalyti · sekantis -> kitas · įvorė treated as masculine, five forms.

Style. English title case in headings · straight " quotes instead of
„…“, 40-plus pairs · literal prepositions (prie 500Hz -> ties 500Hz) ·
dėka used for a bad outcome · register drift into marketing voice.

Structural. Duplicated ledes and stale cross-references inherited from
splitting one article into the nine EdgeTX parts.

bricked-ds420 and multilanguage-test are Andrius's own Lithuanian, not
translations, so those two got typos-and-punctuation only. authod: admin in the
multilanguage-test frontmatter had been silently breaking the author field
since 2022.

Verification

Build clean against the CI Hugo version, zero errors or warnings, EN 2404 / LT
632 pages, unchanged. Corpus checks pass: no stray Cyrillic, no soft hyphens, no
silicon-for-silica. Two straight closing quotes remain, both in snippet files
that this PR does not touch.

Known, not in scope here

English-side defects found while cross-reading: duplicated ledes in EdgeTX parts
7 and 9, stale cross-references in parts 2, 8 and 9. Separate PR.

First file of the Lithuanian review, read in full (2825 lines, 9236 prose
words) rather than swept. Machine-translation artefacts found and fixed:

MEANING REVERSED. The thesis line said "Atskirti ją minkštai — ne veltui",
which means "not in vain", implying it was worthwhile. The English says
"Decoupling it softly is not free", meaning it has a cost. Opposite sense, in
the single most important sentence of the article. Now "nėra be kainos".

REGISTER INCONSISTENCY, the classic translation tell. The article is written in
the informal tu-form throughout, 75 instances, but four sentences switched to
formal plural: "Nustatykite triukšmo lygį... kuris jums patinka" and
"Atkreipkite dėmesį". Now consistent.

FREQUENCY PREPOSITION. 13 instances of "prie 320 Hz" where his own published
Lithuanian uses "ties". All converted.

QUOTATION MARKS. 15 pairs opened with „ and closed with a straight ASCII quote.
Now „…“ throughout.

TERMINOLOGY:
  atsako dozė        -> dozės ir atsako priklausomybė (the original inverts it
                        into "a dose of response"; flagged as unconfirmed in
                        the old DRAFT NOTES and never resolved)
  negatyvi           -> neigiama, twice
  vidūriai           -> viduriai, twice; the ū form means bowels
  apkrovimas         -> apkrova
  posto              -> įrašo, for consistency with the rest of the article
  siūla              -> svarstymu; "thread" translated as sewing thread

GRAMMAR AND CALQUES:
  padalinta                      -> padalyta
  nusiteikęs į teisingą frekvenciją -> buvo nustatytas į teisingą frekvenciją
                                    ("nusiteikęs" means "in the mood")
  filtras nešė 34 dB             -> filtras slopino 34 dB
  laikosi ant 2×                 -> grindžiama 2×, twice
  perprojektuotas O4 Wide        -> perprojektuotas O4 Wide moduliui
  masę, apie kurią nubraižytas   -> masę, kuriai buvo suprojektuotas
  priėmiau kaip duotybę          -> priėmiau kaip savaime suprantamus
  nenumesiu                      -> nepraleisiu
  iš 9,2 iki 4,4                 -> nuo 9,2 iki 4,4
  nužudo akivaizdų paaiškinimą   -> subject restored
  nuostatas, ką reikėjo padaryti -> nuostatas, o tai reikėjo padaryti
  smailės nėra visai             -> smailės visai nėra

Left deliberately: whoop'as, tune'as, sweep'o, gummy ball and other apostrophe
loanwords, which are correct Lithuanian usage for unadapted borrowings.
"įvorė" declined as masculine is inconsistent with the dictionary form but is
used consistently across the article, so it is left for Andrius to rule on.

Build clean, page counts unchanged.
Andrius: "nusiteikęs į teisingą frekvenciją — nobody, bloody nobody says that,
especially a physicist." He is right on both counts.

His phrasing adopted: RPM filtras visą laiką buvo sutinkintas teisingiems
dažniams. I normalised the dative endings to the written standard
(teisingiems dažniams rather than the spoken teisingiem dažniam); say if you
want the clipped spoken form kept.

frekvencija -> dažnis, all 20 instances in this file. The data backs him up:
dažnis already appears about 95 times across his Lithuanian files against 20
for frekvencija, so frekvencija was the imported artefact, not the house term.

dažnis is masculine where frekvencija is feminine, so agreement moved with it
rather than being search-and-replaced:
  išmatuota dominuojanti ... frekvencija -> išmatuotas dominuojantis ... dažnis
  ties suderinta propelerio frekvencija  -> ties suderintu propelerio dažniu
  vidutinė propelerio frekvencija        -> vidutinis propelerio dažnis
  kiekvienoje frekvencijoje              -> kiekviename dažnyje
  aukštos frekvencijos turinio           -> aukšto dažnio turinio
  žema frekvencija                       -> žemas dažnis
  beat frekvencijos                      -> beat dažniai
  modos/modų frekvencijos                -> modos/modų dažniai
  fiksuotos frekvencijos detektoriaus    -> fiksuoto dažnio detektoriaus
  suderinta į frekvenciją, per kurią     -> suderinta į dažnį, per kurį
Chart axis labels included.

Also caught while there: "žemų frekvencijų valdžios problema" rendered control
authority as valdžia, which means government. The English is "a low-frequency
authority problem", so it is now valdymo galios problema.
File 2 of the Lithuanian review, read in full. This one had worse damage than
Meteor75, including nonsense words and a broken heading.

GARBLED BEYOND MEANING. The English "even on linear whip antennas" became
"net su tiesinėmis antena-plaktukinėmis antenomis" — the noun is duplicated and
"whip" was rendered as "plaktukinėmis", meaning hammer-like. Now "net su
tiesinėmis whip antenomis".

WRONG WORD. "capable" became "gabus", which means talented or gifted and is
used of people, not equipment. Now "pajėgus".

BROKEN HEADING. "## Pagrindinė priežasties vertinimas" pairs a feminine
adjective with a masculine noun. Now "Pagrindinės priežasties vertinimas".

INVENTED WORD in image alt text: "bazinio triukšmo matuojamumas",
approximately "measurability". Now "matavimas".

"grinda" is not a Lithuanian word for a floor surface; the noun exists only in
the plural, "grindys". "triukšmo grinda" for noise floor was therefore both a
calque and ungrammatical. Replaced with "triukšmo lygis" throughout, 10
instances, with agreement adjusted.

smaigalys -> smailė, 7 instances, per Andrius. smailė is feminine so agreement
moved: aštrus smaigalys -> aštri smailė, smaigaliai išsklaidyti -> smailės
išsklaidytos, jie pakelia -> jos pakelia, kelios harmoninių smaigaliai ->
kelios harmonikų smailės.

GRAMMAR AND FORM:
  Keraminis plytelės antenas    -> Keraminė plytelinė antena, twice; antena is
                                   feminine and was declined as masculine
  ne pakankamai                 -> nepakankamai
  o ne iš kelių elementų        -> o ne nuo kelių elementų
  dronams maitinamus            -> dronus maitinant
  harmonines / harmonikus       -> harmonikas
  intermoduliavimo              -> intermoduliacijos
  jis nekeliaus (future)        -> ji nekeliauja
  gali gaminti subharmonikas    -> gali generuoti subharmonikas
  plokščiakalniui panašią elevaciją -> į plokščiakalnį panašų pakilimą
  nepereina triukšmo pakilimo   -> neprasimuša per pakeltą triukšmo lygį
  nėra vietos atskirumui        -> nėra vietos tokiam atskyrimui
  siekia toliau nei aukštis teikia -> siekia toliau, nei pakelia kameros aukštis
  prisijungia prie 20+          -> pagauna 20+
  Ryšys (coupling)              -> Sąsaja

NOT TOUCHED, deliberately: this file still says 5V BEC where Andrius has since
established it is 9V. He instructed that this article stay factually as
published, so the correction lives only in the new follow-up article.

Build clean, 21 lines changed.
Andrius asked why not autoritetas. Taking that as the decision, and it exposed a
worse problem than the word choice.

The English uses "authority" seven times. The Lithuanian rendered it four
different ways, and my earlier fix made it five:

  no authority dropout          -> jokio valdymo praradimo
  authority to answer the sticks -> diferencinės valdžios
  authority running out          -> Trauka ir valdžia pasibaigė
  consuming authority            -> suvartojantis valdžią
  running out of authority       -> nepakanka trikdžių atmetimo (dropped the term)
  authority problem              -> valdymo galios problema  (mine)
  loss of authority              -> valdžios praradimą

I had corrected one instance in isolation without checking the others, which
added a fifth variant instead of removing an inconsistency. That is the same
defect this review is supposed to eliminate.

All seven are now valdymo autoritetas, declined to fit:

  jokio valdymo autoriteto praradimo
  diferencinio valdymo autoriteto atsakyti pagaliukams nebeliko
  Trauka ir valdymo autoritetas pasibaigė tą pačią sekundę
  suvartojantis valdymo autoritetą dar prieš manevrą
  trikdžių atmetimui tiesiog nebeužtenka valdymo autoriteto toje juostoje
  žemų dažnių valdymo autoriteto problema
  paaiškintų valdymo autoriteto praradimą

The fifth one had lost the concept altogether: "tiesiog nepakanka trikdžių
atmetimo toje juostoje" says disturbance rejection is insufficient, where the
English says disturbance rejection is running out of authority. Restored.

Zero valdžia and zero valdymo galia remain in the file. valdžia was the clearly
wrong one either way, since it means political power.

Build clean.
valdymo autoritetas is a coined compound, not an attested Lithuanian term. I
searched and found no aviation or flight-control usage of it, and both
dictionary senses of autoritetas are social: recognised influence, or a person
credited with it. Neither covers capacity to produce a commanded response.

The compound is unambiguous because valdymo fixes the domain, so it works. But a
reader who knows the concept only in English should not have to infer it, so the
first of the seven mentions now carries the source term:

  jokio valdymo autoriteto (angl. *control authority*) praradimo

Standard practice in Lithuanian technical writing for a borrowed term, costs
four words once. The remaining six mentions are left bare, as they should be.

Verified the gloss lands on the genuinely first mention in document order
(char 24528, ahead of all six others) and that it renders as emphasis rather
than literal asterisks.
File 3 of the Lithuanian review, read in full. Notably the best translation of
the three so far: the voice is already right, and the closing line is already
Andrius's anticlimax pattern without help from me — "Aparatinė įranga niekada
nebuvo sugedusi. Aš tiesiog vienu lauku per daug skaičiavau nuo nulio."

So the pattern was deliberately NOT applied here. Nothing needed deflating and
adding a shrug on top would have been worse than leaving it alone.

Fixed, 15 lines:

QUOTATION MARKS. 13 pairs opened with „ and closed with a straight ASCII quote.
The most in any file so far. Now „…“ throughout.

WRONG PREPOSITION, four of them, all the same class of error where an English
preposition was carried over literally:
  draugas ant stalo nemato vaizdo -> draugas prie stalo
    ("a friend on top of the table" for "on the bench")
  Perkėliau VTX ant kanalo        -> į kanalą
  Jį išjungi ant paties įrenginio -> pačiame įrenginyje
  praradau vakarą su VTX'u        -> dėl VTX'o
    (the evening was lost because of it, not in its company)

SEMANTICS. "dėka" means "thanks to" and can only introduce a welcome outcome.
It was introducing the fallback trap that dumped him into pit at full wheel.
Now "dėl".

CASE. paklūsti governs the dative: "taisyklė, kurios paklūsta" -> "kuriai
paklūsta".

CALQUE. "taisyklė, ant kurios laikosi visas konfigūratorius" -> "kuria
laikosi". Same laikosi-ant construction found in Meteor75.

Also a missing copula in "Požymis diagnostinis" -> "Požymis yra diagnostinis".

Left as published: the TH3 V02 unlock-sequence caveat, which was corrected in
the earlier purity sweep and reads correctly.

Build clean, no broken quote pairs in the rendered output.
Files 4 and 5 of the Lithuanian review, both read in full. drone-detector-nn is
the worst-damaged file so far, with three words that do not exist in Lithuanian
and one sentence that had lost its meaning entirely.

=== diy-color-chart, 15 lines ===

MEANING REVERSED. "kad kiekvieną lopą galima būtų permatuoti ir perdažyti
keičiant visą lentelę" says each patch can be remeasured and recoated WHILE
changing the whole chart. The English says "without redoing the whole chart".
That is the entire justification for the per-square substrate.

"CMY gautas gerokai nukrypsta" — gamut was translated as "gautas", meaning
"obtained". The English is "the CMY gamut clips hard in certain reds and
yellows". Now "CMY gamutas smarkiai nukerpa".

"lustas" is a microchip. The English says paint chips and dried swatches, so
now "pavyzdžiai".

"kupstas" is a grassy tussock. The English is "broad hump" for the green
spectral peak. Now "kupolas", twice.

smaigalys -> smailė with agreement (du siauri fosforo smaigaliai -> dvi siauros
fosforo smailės), "spalvų metrija" -> kolorimetrija, padalintą -> padalytą.

Grammar: "kelis plačius juostos" -> "kelias plačias juostas" · "tikrosios
spektrinės galios paskirstymo" -> "tikrojo ... skirstinio" · tikėtumeis ->
tikėtumeisi · "kuriam ji skirta kalibruoti" -> "kurį ji turi kalibruoti" ·
"pirksi" (future) -> "nusipirktum" (conditional, matching the English) ·
"įsilaužiama" -> "įmanoma perdaryti" · "neimti sprendimo" -> "nepriimti" ·
"lentelė pastatyta" -> "padaryta".

=== drone-detector-nn, 27 lines ===

SENTENCE LOST ITS MEANING. "Jis skamba nieko bendra neturinčiai su vartojimo
kvadratoriu" is not parseable Lithuanian, and "kvadratorius" is not a word. The
English: "It sounds nothing like a consumer quadrotor, nothing like a fixed-wing
RC plane, and nothing like traffic." Restored as a three-part negative.

"atpaukimas" does not exist. It stood for recall, as in the metric. The English
is "Swarm recall collapsed from 0.77 to 0.52". Now "atkūrimas (recall)".

"baseinas" is a swimming pool, for "pool of drone recordings".

"dauginamasis" is a multiplicand, for "width multiplier". Now "daugiklis".

"auksinė vidurį" is broken both ways, for "the sweet spot". Now "aukso vidurys".

"harmoninės" was used as a noun for harmonics throughout; it is an adjective.
Now "harmonikos", five places. Left alone at line 37 where "harmoninės
struktūros" is genuinely adjectival, checked rather than assumed.

"Doplerio ištrynimą" — ištrynimas is erasure, for Doppler smearing. Now
"išplitimą".

REGISTER. The article opens informal, "jei žinai, ko klausai", then switches to
formal plural in four places: jūsų sprendimas, negalite atsisiųsti, Įrašote
patys, Kai jį atšildote. Now consistently informal.

Also: apmokytas ANT klasių -> su klasėmis · persidengiantiems variklius ->
persidengiančius · anormalijas -> anomalijas · šaltinės -> šaltinio · klipes ->
klipus · pakartotino -> pakartotinio · paplėtoti -> ištęsti · atsitiktinę
padėties nustatymą -> atsitiktinį · rekalibravimai -> rekalibravimo · šiam
topologijai -> šiai · vejos pjoviklis -> vejapjovė, so the class name matches the
rest of the file.

Decimal separators: the prose uses commas but 0.940 and the five mermaid
diagrams used dots. Normalised to commas inside all five blocks so the diagrams
match the surrounding text.

Not changed: the class label "laukimas" for idle. It reads oddly, meaning
"waiting", but it is used consistently across the class list, the source table,
the augmentation section and the diagrams, and it may correspond to a literal
label in the model. Andrius's call.

Build clean.
Files 6 and 7 of the Lithuanian review, both read in full. These two needed
opposite treatment, which is the point of reading rather than sweeping.

=== fpv-tuning-sintra, 22 lines ===

TITLE CASE. All five Lithuanian headings carried English title case: "Kodėl
Sintra, O Ne Savas AI", "Juodosios Dėžės Žurnalų Analizė", "Derinimo Protokolas
Praktikoje", "Dabartinis Flotų Kontekstas", "Ko AI Pagalba Nepakeičia".
Lithuanian capitalises only the first word. Now sentence case.

MISTRANSLATIONS, all confirmed against the English:
  FPV renginiais / renginių planavimas -> konstrukcijomis / konstrukcijų
      ("FPV builds" became FPV events, twice, in the closing recommendation)
  greitas vidaus rūšiavimas            -> greitas skraidymas vidaus patalpose
      ("fast indoor ripping" became indoor sorting)
  o ne suvokimo galiūkams              -> o ne jo suvokimo kraštams
      ("the perceptual bookends"; galiūkas is not a word)
  propelerių plovimas, three places    -> propwash
      (literally "washing the propellers")
  Modelis nuoseklus visuose juose      -> Dėsningumas visuose juose tas pats
      ("The pattern is consistent" became "The model is consistent")
  dvieigiai sraigteliai                -> dvilapiai (biblade, not two-way)
  Flotų kontekstas                     -> parko kontekstas (flotas is naval)

BROKEN FORMS: "apie kuriuos daug nekalbų" -> nekalbu · "pagrindinė
funkcionalumas" -> pagrindinis · "leisdavo dokumentacijai užstrigtų" ->
užstrigti · "ilgalaikis dreijavimas" -> dreifavimas · generalistis ->
generalistas · "persovimas" -> peršovimas, three places (misspelling of
overshoot) · "greiti lazdos įvestys" -> "greitos pagaliukų įvestys", matching
the pagaliukai used in the VTX article.

REGISTER: three formal-plural slips (jūsų varikliui, ką skraidote, jūsų
sprendimas) against informal elsewhere. Now consistent.

Also: rate -> dažnis for the logging rate · "Pagrindinis supratimas" ->
"Pagrindinė įžvalga" for insight · expo 0.4-0.5 -> 0,4-0,5 · 4 quote pairs.

=== bricked-ds420, 9 lines — deliberately light touch ===

This one is Andrius's own casual voice in BOTH languages, not a formal
translation: the English carries the same hyphens-as-dashes and its own typos
("vuola", "unscre", "culpit", "allright"). So the colloquialisms were left
alone: lituot, pasiekt, užsibootino, Atspėjote, internetuose all kept.

CONTENT OMISSION. The Lithuanian intro dropped a sentence. The English ends
that paragraph "Just an expensive paperweight with my data trapped inside."
Restored. Section-by-section word counts showed every section 15-20% shorter,
which is normal for Lithuanian dropping articles, but the intro delta of -8
matched that sentence exactly, so it was checked rather than assumed.

Typos only: suktėsi -> sukosi · pabloginana -> pablogina · užkliumpa ->
užkliūva · "ir be neparodo" -> "ir neparodo" · jum -> jums · "tai įsitikina" ->
"tai patvirtina" · missing spaces before two parentheses · decimal separators
3.25V/3.3V/1.2V -> commas · straight quotes around the "+" terminal.

Build clean.
File 8, and the method changed. Andrius called out that I had been scanning for
patterns and reading around them, which is why invented words only surfaced when
a regex happened to trip over one. This file was read start to finish, no
pre-scan, and my earlier scan had reported it CLEAN.

It was not clean. It closes with his own note: "Iš tingėjimo verčiau iš Anglų į
Lietuvių su AI... teko nemažai taisyt, tad gali būt kažkur praleidau kokią
nesąmonę." Here is what was left.

PHYSICS TERMINOLOGY. A vibrational mode is "moda" in Lithuanian physics.
"režimas" means regime or operating mode and is wrong for this. It appeared six
times, including in the p5js sketch labels, while the same article correctly
says "modos" elsewhere. No physicist writes "rezonansiniai režimai".

THE DEFINING TERM WAS BROKEN. "DML (Distributed Mode Loudspeakers - paskirstyto
bangų garsiakalbių)": "paskirstyto" is masculine singular, "bangų" is feminine
plural, and the phrase says "distributed wave" rather than "distributed mode".
The gloss of the article's own subject did not parse. Now "paskirstytų modų
garsiakalbiai".

"Polkių filtrai" is not a Lithuanian word in any declension. The English is
"Shelving filters". Now "Lentyniniai filtrai".

"kad muzika skambėtų žemiškiau" means "so the music sounds more earthly". The
English is "sounds more bassy".

"Žalias DML atsakas" means green. The English is "Raw DML response", and two
lines later the same file correctly says "Nekalibruotas".

"Adresuoja pagrindines viršūnes" — adresuoti in Lithuanian is what you do to an
envelope. Now "Koreguoja".

"neįtakočiau" — įtakoti is the best-known barbarism in Lithuanian; the standard
verb is paveikti.

"(jie tvarkomi iki 10%)" says the distortions are being handled. The English is
"it is manageable up to 10%".

GRAMMAR A NATIVE WOULD NOT WRITE: "garsiakalbių, kur skambėjo neblogai" (kur is
where, not which) · "prieš interneto eroje" (preposition and case fight) · "Tas
pat dalykas" · a relative clause with no commas · "sukeldavo nepakartojamų
emocijų" · "sukeliant" left dangling · "mažiausias iškraipymus" · "priešingam
kampelyje" with no object for pajusti · "Gražus dalykas apie DML", a calque of
"the nice thing about" · "proto ribose" for "within reason".

TYPOS: skambėsys -> skambesys · diagragmoje -> diafragmoje · gallų -> galų ·
įvirtintos -> įtvirtintos · energijo -> energijos · nebveiktų -> nebeveiktų ·
"kur kur" doubled · PC Speker · a double space.

Also five straight-quote pairs, missing spaces before parentheses, 1.5kHz ->
1,5 kHz, 1x0.7m -> 1×0,7 m, and title case removed from the sketch labels.

KEPT, deliberately, because they are his voice and his jokes: "hey, juk tai
eksperimentas" · "čia ne tai apie ką galvojate:D" · "avižėlių pirstelėjimai" ·
"Gavau šiek tiek kardio" · "kam tas vargas su senienom" · "iš lempos klijuot" ·
"prizoomint" · "tokiem keistiem matavimam" · the clipped infinitives · the PS
about translating with AI · the formal-plural reader address, which unlike the
other files is used consistently here and is therefore a choice, not a slip.

Build clean.
Files 9 to 17 of the Lithuanian review. Read in part order, in full, so
terminology stayed consistent across the nine. 95 lines changed.

Checked the terminology map across all nine BEFORE editing anything, which was
the right call: "loginis jungtukas" is used consistently for logical switch in
every part, so it was left alone rather than "corrected" into divergence. The
single "režimas" in part 7 is ELRS Gemini mode, an operating mode, so also
correct and left.

STRUCTURAL DEFECTS, both also present in the English and therefore authoring
artefacts from splitting one long article into nine:

1. Parts 7 and 9 open with a lede paragraph, then repeat the same two sentences
   verbatim under the first heading. Fixed on the Lithuanian side by dropping
   the repeat and keeping the lede, which is what feeds listings. THE ENGLISH
   STILL HAS BOTH DUPLICATIONS.

2. Stale cross-references. Part 2 said the self-test was described "anksčiau
   šiame įraše" when it lives in part 4, and pointed at the 3,065 V figure as
   being in this post when it is in part 8 — and the Lithuanian had additionally
   flipped the direction, "earlier" becoming "toliau". Part 8 referred to frame
   rates from "ankstesnio skyriaus" which is part 6. Part 9 said L numbers differ
   from "anksčiau šiame įraše". All now name the actual part. THE ENGLISH HAS THE
   SAME STALE REFERENCES.

NAVIGATION. Eight nav link texts did not match the titles they pointed at: part
2 was cited without "baterijos", part 6 without "vienas ... pats", part 8 without
"čia". Nav links also capitalised the first word after "N dalis:" while every
title is lowercase. All aligned.

A STRAY CYRILLIC LETTER. Part 7 contained "vedа" with U+0430 CYRILLIC SMALL
LETTER A inside a Latin word. Invisible on screen, breaks search and spellcheck.
A corpus scan found one more, in snippets/fpv/reference/inav-vs-betaflight
("prisukа"). Both fixed; zero remain.

"sekantis" for "next" is a well-known Lithuanian usage error; the word is
"kitas". Six instances across the series and Meteor75. Left alone in
fpv-terminology where "notch filtras, sekantis dažnius" is a genuine participle
meaning tracking, and checked each of the others individually rather than
replacing blind.

KEYWORDS WITHOUT DIACRITICS in five parts: ispejimas, itampos, celiu, skaicius,
konfiguruojami, aukscio, palydovu, rysio, igarsinimas. No Lithuanian writes
those. Fixed.

WORD-LEVEL, per part:
  1  "sulūžusi grandies vieta" -> "trūkusi grandinės grandis" · "būsenos kaitoms"
     -> pokyčiams · doubled "Tai aš tai" · "Kompromisas atviras" -> sąžiningas ·
     "po kojų kliudyti" -> "lipti vienas kitam ant kojų" · nedalinti -> nedalyti
  2  "klysta 200 mV" -> "per 200 mV" · "šis blogas" -> tinklaraštis, since blogas
     reads as the adjective bad · "kaupiamosios priežasties" -> "klaidos susideda"
  3  "viršija pulto konfigūraciją" -> "turi viršenybę prieš", viršyti is numeric
  4  "gelbėjimu galima tikėtis" -> pasitikėti, tikėtis takes the genitive ·
     "grubus ... apytikslis" redundant · "matuojąs" -> "kaip pasirodė, matuoja"
  5  "minau tai" -> "paminiu"; minau is the past of minti, to tread ·
     "pageidaujamumo tvarka" -> "pirmenybės tvarka" · "Kas yra pigiausia" fragment
  6  "telemetrijos galimybė" -> tarpas, matching the rest of the file · "TRSS yra
     ženklas, kodėl" -> "TRSS parodo, kodėl"
  7  "vandenpuolius" -> krioklius; waterfall is krioklys · rotuoja/rotuojant ->
     vartosi/vartantis · "Būk tikslus" imperative aimed at the reader ->
     "Kad būtų tikslu" · dangling "jo savininkui pralinksminus" · "Kas ... yra"
     calque of "Which is"
  8  comma where a dash belongs, three times · "pasiekiam" 1st person plural in a
     tu-form article · "prieš kurį įrašas argumentuoja" -> "su kuriuo nesutinka" ·
     "Kas yra blogas planas" -> "Tai blogas planas"
  9  missing comma in "suprojektuotas bet dar neįrašytas"

Also normalised the "**Series:**" footer label to "**Serija:**" in all nine.

Build clean, page counts unchanged.
The dictionary entry is unambiguous: įvorė, moteriškosios giminės daiktavardis.
The article used it with masculine adjectives and masculine plural forms throughout.

Genitive plural (įvorių) happens to be identical for both the ė-stem feminine
and the old masculine, so those are correct and unchanged.

Changed:
  silikoninius įvorius išėmiau      -> silikonines įvores išėmiau
  guminiai įvoriai kur kas mažiau linkę -> guminės įvorės kur kas mažiau linkusios
    (predicate participle also agreed: linkusios, not linkę)
  Tie įvoriai kabino                -> Tos įvorės kabino
  į guminius įvorius (caption)      -> į gumines įvores
  VTX įvorius grąžinti              -> VTX įvores grąžinti

Left: gummy ball and gummy as untouched loanwords.

PHYSICS ERROR. "silicio pluoštas" means SILICON fibre. The English says silica
fibre. Silica is SiO2, silicon is Si; optical fibre is fused silica, which in
Lithuanian is kvarcas. Two instances, one of them the article's conclusion about
what the next build uses. A physicist does not confuse those two.

INVENTED WORD. "sufiguruoja" for "gets the fibre close enough".

FALSE FRIEND. "paleisk įsigijimą" — įsigijimas is a purchase. The English is data
acquisition; now registravimą.

A SOFT HYPHEN, U+00AD, inside "neiš­lygiuojant". Invisible, breaks search.

Truncated frontmatter: the description ended mid-thought at "kodėl reikėjo
pereiti" with no period. The English is "Three reasons it had to go."

Also: "regionas" for a spectral region, three times — that is a geographic
region, the word is sritis · plastinis (of the plastic arts) -> plastikinis ·
"pjovimo filtras" calqued from cut filter · "aukščiau ~450nm" for a wavelength ·
"anapus to kirpimo" — kirpimas is a haircut · "sugerties briauna" -> kraštas ·
"slypi ant triukšmo" — slypėti is to lurk · a doubled noun in "apvalkalas
sugeria fotonus per apvalkalą" · "Kolimuoti yra atlaidžiai" · "pagrįstą kūgio
kampą" — pagrįstas is justified, not reasonable · gender in "mažo šerdies",
"stendas tampa tolerantiška", "sąranką atkartojama" · mood in "nesugriauna" ->
nesugriautų · typos sodžią, permatumą, smailiu, laikiklye, besidengias.

=== fpv-journey-dronefix, 20 fixes ===

"gabiausias mano turimas kvadrotas" — gabus means talented, of people. Same
error as pavo20-gps-struggles. The English is "not the most capable".

Three headings in English title case, plus "Kodėl FPV Prisijungia" where
prisijungti means to log in. The English is "Why FPV Connects".

"Flotas" for the fleet section — flotas is a naval fleet. Now "Dronų parkas".

Broken forms: "nustojau jį imtis" (imtis is to undertake) · a genitive fragment
in a list of nominatives · "nesuderinami ekosistemų" · "analoginėmis viduriais"
(viduriai is masculine) · "Pameciau ... trys metrai" · "su ... bateriją" · "Hobis
yra edukacinis būdu" · "su tinkama ekspozicijos valdymu" · "aš baigiu
pasiteisinimų" · "kas yra greičiausia" -> "o tai" · a dangling chain of datives
in the fibre front-end sentence · lowercase "lietuvos" in alt text · "supjaustė
daug triukšmo" for cutting through noise · "nesu suinteresuotas" calque.

Kept: "Kas sugeba palit' droną, tas sugeba palit' viską."

=== mini-spectrometer-grating, 18 fixes ===

"difrakcinis grotelės" — grotelės is feminine plural, twice, including the
alt text describing the article's central discovery.

"prisiėmiau" for "I assumed". Prisiimti is to take on a burden; making a
supposition is padaryti prielaidą.

"polinomų tilptimi" — tilptis is not a word. A curve fit is aproksimacija.

"grotelių dažnis d" — d is the groove spacing, not a frequency. Now žingsnis.

Also: "Priekis atsukami", singular subject with plural participle · "persidengią"
· "kaitraliampė" · a missing verb in "centras fiksuotu kampu" · a missing noun in
"praktiškai tik matomojo diapazono" · "kišami backends" · "kalibruoti prieš
juodojo kūno šaltinį" -> pagal · period inside the closing quote.

=== about/me, about/changelog, multilanguage-test ===

about/me: straight quotes with the period inside, and "gyvena techniškai
įgyvendinamo riboje" with no noun to hang on.

changelog: "nuo asmeninius" -> asmeninių · "Mokausi Kolorimetrijos (Spalvų
mokslas)" -> lowercase and genitive.

multilanguage-test is Andrius's own 2022 Lithuanian, so typos only:
`authod: admin` in the frontmatter, which silently broke the author field ·
lowercase lietuvių in the title, since language names are not capitalised ·
apibūtina · Išskirtinais · "nėra labai paprastą" · bugnu · "deployment sripts" ·
a stray capital mid-sentence. Deplojint, perpanaudoti and web apps'ais all kept.

Corpus verification: zero stray Cyrillic, zero soft hyphens, zero
silicon-for-silica. Two straight closing quotes remain, both in snippets, which
are not yet reviewed.

Build clean, page counts unchanged.
