Amateur etymology at its finest!  Someone on Facebook came up with a novel etymology, claiming that 'rrush' (grape) of the Albanian language originates from 'ru shijen' (to hold the test).  This author also plays a lot of his etimologies with word rotations, like 'rrush' and 'shurr'.  But let's get real – while "rrush" (grapes) preserve the taste, does "shurrë " (urine) really do the same?  Who's been testing urine to make such etymological claims?  It's reminiscent of another gem from the beniamins of this author, where they claim the German 'UL+' comes from the Albanian 'LU' (to move).  By that logic, shouldn't 'shurrë' (urine) come from 'rrush' (grape) using the same amateur methodology?

The Double-Headed Eagle is an emblem that has captivated many, whether through its association with the Byzantines, the Roman Empire, or Skanderbeg's Albania (Arbërija). However, few people know that the origins of this symbol date back to the Hittites, who used it around 3300 years ago, as seen in the Hittite settlement of Alaca Hoyuk. In Albania, the Double-Headed Eagle has a rich history. It is featured on the country's flag and was also used by the Principality of Albania. The Kastriot family, a prominent Albanian noble family, adopted the Double-Headed Eagle as its emblem in the 14th and 15th centuries. Other notable families, such as the Dukagjin and Arianite families, also used the symbol, as did the League of Lezha, which employed the Kastriot flag. The Double-Headed Eagle's significance extends beyond Albania's borders. During Jan Hunyadi's campaign in Niš in 1443, Skanderbeg, along with several hundred Albanians, deserted the Turkish army, fighting under t...

The Albanian word ngordh is believed to come from the Proto-Albanian word *kār(i)da, which in turn derives from the Proto-Indo-European root *kēr dʰeh₁- ("to take root, to harden"). It originally had an n- as a prefix and meant "to die of hunger". Proto-Albanian: kār(i)da Proto-Indo-European: kēr dʰeh₁- ("to take root, to harden") Original meaning: "To die of hunger" Current usage: The word is now used specifically for animals that die. Symbolic etymology: Life is an O in R-rolling. Where ngordh goes to DHE, on the other hand. There are the words RRO and NDRRON related to this symbolism. NG is the symbol for its prohibition. This is confirmed by the other words NGEC and NUK (NG) as negating movement and expressions of negation of something. The anagram of NGORDH is DHROGN which includes the other two symbols in RRO and N'DRRON. In these symbols lies also the Latin MORIOR and the English DIE.

Free Operator -G(ë)- Symbol For the fifth time in the last 15 years, I'm revisiting the symbolism of "G" in the Albanian language. A remarkable example comes from the Vinca culture (5700-4500 BC), where a unique, handmade ceramic vessel with a vein was discovered in Central Europe. This ancient artifact holds significant importance in understanding the evolution of language and symbolism. Modern etymology often falls short in grasping the symbolic essence of word construction, relying on partial and truncated methods. The symbol "G" is a prime example. The word "vegë" illustrates this symbolism, yet official etymology deviates from its true essence, overlooking the time of creation, applied symbolism, and possible previous symbol-concepts. Let's examine two key points: 1. When was the word "vegë" created? Elementary logic suggests it was around 7000 years ago, in the Vinca culture, when the first clay vessel with a vein (called "poçe...

Në Evropën Qendrore, Periudha Neolitike, kultura që quhet sot Vinca, rreth viteve 5700 deri në 4500 p.e.s. eshtë gjetur një enë qeramike e mrekullueshme e punuar me dorë me formë unike, që paraqet një këmbë në formë unaze, një trup në formë diamanti, një qafë tubulare dhe një buzë rrethore të hapur. Duke paraqitur një nuancë të pasur ngjyrë kafe të errët, ena e lashtë është e zbukuruar me vija të bukura të incizuara me bojë të bardhë që formojnë katër regjistra vijash vertikale, diagonale, me pika dhe të valëzuara. Dizajne të ngjashme me shënjestër paraqiten në secilin cep të trupit në formë diamanti. Një dorezë në formë shiriti shtrihet nga shpatulla në buzë me një formë dekorative në formë skedë që del në majë.

The official etymology suggests that the Danish word "svigerfar" (father-in-law) is a compound of "sviger-" and "far," with "sviger-" being a calque of the German "schwieger-," derived from Proto-Germanic "swegrō" (meaning "mother-in-law") and ultimately tracing back to the Proto-Indo-European root for "father-in-law." However, an alternative analysis breaks down the element "svigër" into components. The prefix "s-" might indicate negation, while "vi"  could relate to the Albanian concept of "to set or place." The suffix "-ër" might be a linguistic ending without semantic meaning. The symbolic core root "gë" could be linked to Albanian words conveying connection, such as "gojë" (mouth), "gjuhë" (tongue), "gurë" (stone), "gisht" (finger), and "gju" (knee). In this context, "svigër" might or...
