She looks like an albanian young singer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WN0E3BDMaY

Italian speech sounds like a song :)

I'm sorry to say you're wrong, even you've a very limited knowledge on Albanian wordformation. Here is another example (there are numerous): mund = can, may; s'mund = can't; smundje = illness; disease; sëmurë = ill; sick; Or, look at this one lol: mirë= well; good; smirë = heartburning.

Well, since you're an albanian I'll give you another example, look at the words below: ul = to sit down, to lower, to humble, to kneel; s’ul = do not sit down, do not kneel, …. sul = rush, throw oneself, attack, or let us see their reflexive form (I think it’d be more understandable via...

The etymology of "sqep" may be a subject of wordformation where "s" is a negative prefix. Compare these Albanian words: sqep shqep sqepar sqepon shqiponjë

It is very probable that Albanian word kalë (horse) be related with the verb kaloj (“pass”, “go off”, “transfer”, “overstep”, etc.). As I’ve pointed out, the suffix “-oj” turns a noun into a verb, but actually Albanian lacks the noun kal/ë (“pass”, “transfer” …) and there does exist only kalë...

Please, stop the nationalistic propaganda. This is a linguistic forum.

The first derivative of Albanian gjë (or gje, both forms are useful) seems to be the verb gjej (in Tosk gjenj) that means obtain, find (first person singular) or gjen (second and third person singular). Is there anyone to explain if there is any relation of this Albanian word with Latin...

Maybe Slavic “гора” (mountain).

In Albanian: "Zot" means: 1- God; 2- Mr.; 3- Owner. "Zonjë" means "Ms."; "Zonë" means "occupation", "zone"; "Zanë" means "goddess" (it's a mythological character). All these words derive from "Ze" = 1- begin; 2- occupy; 3- catch; 4- size (v); ["zënë" is the p.p. of "ze"/"zë"; In Gheg: "zanë"]...

I wonder for their etymology. In modern Albanian "heq" (in Gheg: "hek") means "extract" (v); "hequr" (in Gheg: "hekur") means "extracted". Is it possible to be a coincidence?

I strongly believe in what I see/understand. None can make me believe in mistery. If there's a God who created a foolish child like me, it's not my fault. It's HIS!

I do not know where have you found that Albanian gjë means all. Here is what it really means: In Gheg dialect: gja /ghja/ = 1- thing (n); 2- matter (n). Definite: gjaja /ghjaja/. In standard Albanian: gjë (definite gjëja). May be it cognates with Greek Γαῖα in the same way as Albanian lëndë =...

Taranis, is it really hard for you to grasp it? Well, here are some other words just to show you what I mean: Albanian word Albanian participle Latin word Kry/kre = 1- head; 2- do consciously Kryer /krier/ Crear/e Struk = to hide (from enemies or atmospheric agents, esp. into a cave)...

It seems as if we're fighting for the native ownership of IE words. It would be ridiculous thinking that way! All IE peoples are equally its "owners", regardless a certain word appears to be native of. Such a "danger" perception means ... just to be sorry a lot indeed.
