Albanian is an Indo-European language spoken by the Albanians in the Balkans and by the Albanian diaspora, which is generally concentrated in the Americas, Europe, and Oceania. With about 7.5 million speakers, it comprises an independent branch within the Indo-European languages and is not closely related to any other Indo-European language.
Albanian was first attested in the 15th century and it is a descendant of one of the Paleo-Balkan languages of antiquity. For reasons that are more historical and geographical than specifically linguistic, some modern historians and linguists believe that the Albanian language may have descended from a southern Illyrian dialect spoken in much the same region in classical times. Alternative hypotheses hold that Albanian may have descended from Thracian or Daco-Moesian, other ancient languages are spoken farther east than Illyrian. Too little is known of these languages to completely prove or disprove the various hypotheses.
If you are interested to see your native language/dialect be featured here.
Submit your recordings to otipeps24@gmail.com.
Looking forward to hearing from you!

From this time my dream was to learn Albanian, but I didn't have time and purpose before. When I met last year in Greece and found out he's Albanian, I knew why. I strongly believe that's fate ❤️ now I speak Albanian almost fluently, with little of Gheg Dialect and dialect of Dibër (which from is my zemer 💋❤️)

    Albanians really like to take words from other languages and prefer to use foreign words instead of Albanian words when they have a word. For example the real Albanian word is "shtrat" (bed) but all Albanian use "krevat" because they think they are more modern using foreign words (which is stupid in my opinion).

    What did Albanians 🇦🇱 have before the Ottoman invasion? 1. Albanians had a University in 1380 in Durrës. To give you an idea: Germany opened its first university, 6 years after Durrës (Heidelberg University). 2. Albanians had 6 fully developed cities as much as Florence, Venice, Marseille or Paris. (Durrës, Shkodra, Drishti, Lezha, Berat and Preveza). 3. Albanians had the aristocratic class with 8 noble families (Balshaj, Topiaj, Muzakaj, Kastrioti, Arianiti, Zebenishta, Spataj and Dukagjini) connected by marriage even with the Habsburgs and the Bourbons. 4. Albanians had the humanist philosophers, who with their genius ideas, were advisers to the imperial families in Hungary, Italy and Austria (Gjon Gazhuli, Pal Ungjëlli, Leonik Tomeo and Gjon Durrsaku). 5. Albanian cities had statutes and were governed by democracy while at the same time America for example it was governed by the Cherokee Indians or the Aztec tribes who still drank human blood and lived as cannibals. 6. In Durrës, intellectualism was so high that we have documented in the 12th century for the first time the note of protest of an Orthodox Metropolitan, who writes to Constantinople, against slavery, 300 years before it started as a debate in Europe. 7. In Durrës, trade was done even with Tunisia, Ukraine and France, since the 5th century. While at the same time for example the Scandinavian countries still lived by worshiping the tree or the mountain. 8. The Church of Albania had issued a Cardinal (and a cardinal was no small thing then). What happened next? The Ottomans just came and for 500 years made that every Albanian forgot who they really were.

    It has several functions. In nouns it is used to regulate the intonation. if there is and 'ë' at the end of the word, it means that the vowel in the penultimate syllable is longer than the others. For example 'shkollë' (school) and 'top' (ball). The 'O' in the first is a longer one than the 'O' in the second word. It also regulates the pronunciation of some names that have both a masculine and a feminine version. For example: 'Alban' for males and 'Albanë' for females. The second 'a' in 'Albanë' is pronounced longer than the second 'a' in 'Alban'. Then, there are nouns that naturally end in ''ë' without any special function. Lastly, it is used as an ending to form the plural of both nouns and adjectives. Albanian has four ways to form the plural, using ''ë' is one of them. For example, Arbëresh - Arbëreshë (the medieval Albanians mentioned in the video);përtac - përtacë (lazy).

    The ë at the end of the word is for the purpose of elongating the vowel directly before it. Example, the word punë, the u is elongated so it’s pronounced with a “long u” ... Whereas the word sapun has no ë at the end so it’s pronounced with a “short u”

    That's a funny coincidence. The word "Mirë" in albanian is directly translated to "Good", so since Mirupafshim is short for Mirë u pafshim, its' direct translation is literally "Goodbye". There are, however, some similarities with Russian and other slavic languages (Mostly Bulgarian, although if you count the old languages those have the most similarities), but there aren't many that I've found. It's mostly Latin and Greek influenced, so that's kinda obvious.

    Albanian (spoken in Albania, in Kosovo, Greece, Italy, Turkey) has two major mutually unintelligible dialects: Gheg (in the north). Tosk (in the south), with further internal divergence. The official language is based on Tosk. The extinct languages Illyrian and Thracian have been advanced as ancestor languages but this is controversial. Accent information Accounts of accent location in Albanian range from unpredictable to statements to the effect that accent generally falls on the final syllable of stems, unless this syllable contains a schwa (orthographically , which, however, is not pronounced anyway in most varieties of standard Albanian) in which case accent falls on the penultimate syllable. Most derivational suffixes are accent-sensitive. When occurring in final position they will bear the primary accent, while the originally accented syllable will bear secondary accent: pune 'work', punétor 'worker. Certain derivational suffixes (notably all non-verbal suffixes ending in ) and nearly all inflectional suffixes are accent-neutral: when added to a stem they do not change the position of the primary accent. Thus, word accent in Albanian remains invariant throughout the inflectional paradigm of a stem: mál mountain'. mále 'mountains, maleve of mountains. The definite article, which in Albanian is added to the end of the noun, is also accent-neutral. In compounds primary accent falls on the second member: zemer 'heart' + gjere "broad' zemërgjere 'generous'. Phrase accent falls on the final word in a phrase (cf. Bevington 1974; Newmark, Hubard and Prifti 1982). Trommer (n.d.) contains the most detailed analysis of Albanian accent, presenting an analysis of 17077 stems, which in 11.006 cases have final stress and only about 50 cases having accent before the penultimate stem syllable. He shows that the placement of accent is sensitive to syllable structure. Trimoraic final syllables almost always have final stress (1084 out of 1088), whereas bimoraric syllables have final stress in 8663 out of 9238 cases. In the case of vowel final stem the location of stress is sensitive to vowel quality (there is no vowel length) with peripheral vowels (/a,i,u/) being more likely to be stressed than mid vowels (/e.o/). Final closed syllables with a schwa do not tend to be stressed unless they are trimoraic. Demiraj (1998: 486) notes that in the oldest nouns stress most fre quently falls on the first syllable. Does this indicate that Old Albanian had an initial pattern? Apparently not: Beekes (1995: 149) says that in Old Albanian accent was located on the last syllable of verbal stems and prepositions, and often on the penult in nouns.

For example Basque shares no cognates (other than modern loan words) with any language in the world. Albanian still shares some cognates with other indo-european languages. Armenian, Greek and Albanian are the 3 indo european languages with no immediate relatives (Because their brothers and sisters were either slavicised or Latinised).

    Make Arbereshe language too which is not mutually intelligible with Tosk Albanian. Arberesh, known as "Arbërisht" or "Tarbrisht" by its speakers, is the language of a linguistic minority in Italy called the Arberesh. The Arberesh descend from Albanian settlers in Southern Italy and Sicily in the 15th Century. The first settlers arrived during the first decades of the Ottoman Turkish occupation of the Balkans. Many of those first arrivals were from the Himara region of southern Albania and from the Peloponnese region of Greece, which they called Morea. They were Albanian speakers belonging to the Greek Orthodox church and their dialect was coloured by the Greek used in church and still shared features with the Albanian dialect spoken in Himara (itself heavily influenced by Greek). There is a similar group residing in Greece called the Arvanites, who also call themselves Arberesh and their language Arberisht. The Arberesh of today retains a 15th century Albanian feel but has absorbed many elements from Greek, Sicilian and the local languages of Southern Italy, like Calabrese and Apulian. Interestingly, the Arberesh spoken in Sicily (which is presented in this book) retains some archaic features of Sicilian, notably from the Norman French influence on that language, some of which have been lost in the modern Sicilian language. An example of this is the Arberesh word for toilet, 'rritreu', which although originally a Norman word brought to Sicily has not only disappeared in Sicilian but also in Norman French. The Arberesh word for money 'ghranét' comes from the old custom of paying for goods with grains or 'granni'. Arberesh is distinct enough from Standard Albanian 'Shqip' to be called a separate language. The two are mostly not mutually intelligible and considerable effort is needed by speakers of either to understand one another. Most Albanians from the state of Albania or from Kosovo will recognise a lot of the grammar and vocabulary, but there will be a lot that is not understood. Many older speakers of southern 'Tosk' Albanian will recognise a great deal more in Arberesh than will younger speakers who have been educated in Standard Albanian. Using this phrasebook as a tool to understanding the Arberesh culture and psyche can open one up to the culture in ways that would be missed by someone who only speaks Italian in Arberesh towns. The Arberesh are fiercely proud of their ancient and unique language and will respond with genuine affection and love for anyone that makes the effort to speak it. There are as many dialects of modern Arberisht as there are of Shqip, and each dialect is sufficiently distinct from the others as to cause difficulty in communication between their speakers. This guide to conversation presents the dialects as spoken in the towns of Hora e Arbëreshëvet (Piana degli Albanesi), Sendastina (Santa Cristina Gela), and to a lesser extent the village of Kundisa (Contessa Entellina). These three communities each have only slightly divergent dialects from each other and are mutually intelligible. The specific dialect of Hora (e Arbëreshëvet) is of importance amongst all Arberesh communities because it is the dialect with the least attrition, not least because it is the largest community (with a population of 6100+ as of 2010) of all Arberesh towns. It also enjoys the status of being the seat of the Arberesh Byzantine Church and as such has a wealth of Arberesh literature stored in the churches and in the town's library and Arberesh museum.

    To understand the Albanian language, you have to live in Albania and speak it for many years. There are many discussions about this language between Serbs, Italians, Greeks and Turks. Some professors in Albania think that the Albanian language has borrowed many words from other languages, such as Latin, Greek, Serbian or even Turkish. Some other Albanian professors or Albanian language enthusiasts claim an undiscovered mystery of the Albanian language. This theory is dismissed with contempt as a nationalist movement, not professional or not based on old written documents, or non-scientific theory. Albanians passionate about their language are trying to challenge all the science of languages. However, they are convinced of their truth. But to understand the depth and mystery of this language, you really need to know this language not only from the grammatical side but also its spirit of communication and messages.

    It has borrowed a ton of vocabulary from Latin, Greek and the Slavic languages but this doesn't mean it's not an independent branch.
