Mourner's Kaddish in the Lithuanian tradition:
For those wishing to preserve Lithuanian Jewish (Litvish / Litvak) tradition: Yeynesn Felendler's Mourner's Kaddish (ancient Aramaic prayer in remembrance of the departed from this world) as rendered in classic Litvish.

Note 1: This rendition basically reflects the dialectal/phonetic/phonological historic usage in all of the territory of today's Belarus and the Litvish sectors in Eastern Ukraine and northeastern Poland. It reflects most of the current space of Lithuania and Latvia minus — in both cases the 'western / Baltic Sea' strips — Zámet (Samogitia, Žemaitija) in Lithuania and, to its north, Courland (Kurland) in Latvia. For several words (from the Book of Genesis) in the Zámet tradition (which has ou or eu instead of classic Litvish ey) see the first rendition in a recently posted early 1990s audio pilot at:    • Early 1990s pilot for LYVA: Lithuanian Yid...

Note 2: The dialectal/phonetic/phonological character is distinct from the textual issue: Lithuanian Hasidim (today most prominently Chabad, but once a whole host of town-named courts) follow the 'Sephardic' text with its famed additional four words of a messianic nature. From THAT point of view, the Lithuanian Hasidic variant could be found more and more as one traveled eastward through what is today eastern Lithuania and all of Belarus. Some notes on the Defending History 'Kaddish' page cited above. Our Lithuanian Yiddish Video Archive (LYVA) contains a number of Hasidic Lithuanian variants (see e.g. under Radashkóvits and Beshenkóvich, among others).
