In the Cham Albanian dialect, "OBIRE" is equivalent to "O bi" (O becomes). The letter "O" originates from the symbolism of completion in both time and physical matter. In the context of life, the completion of "O" signifies its end. When "O" is completed as a metaphor for life, it reaches the end of life. The Algorithm: "O bi-re" (O becomes) The algorithm combines the Albanian verb "*bë" (to do, to make) and the Cham form "*bi"  with the symbolism of "O". This algorithm highlights the dynamic nature of life, where movement through "O" represents the journey of life. Amateur Etymologies: Latin Obituarius The Latin term "Obituarius" refers to a record of a person's death, literally meaning "pertaining to death". This term is derived from "Obitus", which is rooted in "obire", meaning "to go straight" or "to go to a meeting". Th...

Albanian language boasts intriguing connections between its words, revealing a rich linguistic heritage.

Introduction The Albanian language is a treasure trove of symbolic meanings, offering insights into the culture and philosophy of its speakers. This article delves into the Albanian symbolic language, exploring the concepts of laj(wash)-purity and ndyj(dirty)-paint. The Concept of Purity: "i" (one) as the state of "i" (one), the original State In Albanian symbolic language, when a thing is in its original state, it is considered clean or pure. This state is represented by the letter "i" ("i" the word for number one in Geg Albanian).  The Albanian language embodies a profound concept of purity, mirroring a cultural reverence for the primordial state of existence. This emphasis on originality underscores the importance of a thing's, or being's, initial state - whether spiritual or material - at the moment of its creation or birth. The Concept of Pollution: "Ndyt" and the State of "dy" (two) When a thing is combined with ...

Unveiling the Albanian Origins of "Agjëroj " Introduction The Albanian word "agjëroj" has sparked intense debate among linguists regarding its etymology. While some propose a Latin origin, others suggest a connection to Ancient Greek. However, a closer examination of the word's constituent parts reveals a more compelling Albanian origin. The Negative Prefix "A" The prefix "a" is often attributed to Ancient Greek, but a thorough analysis suggests that the Albanian language may have influenced the development of this prefix. The Albanian word "pa" (meaning "without" or "not") is a more likely candidate for the origin of the prefix "a". This is evident in the construction of words like "asgjë" (nothing), where "a" is used as a negative word-forming element. The Essential Meaning of "Gjë" The word "gjë" is a fundamental component of the Albanian language, encompassing...

Uncovering the Truth: The Albanian Origins of Tel Dor Introduction Tel Dor, an archaeological site on Israel's Mediterranean coast, has been shrouded in mystery regarding its name's origins. Traditional accounts attribute the name "Dor" to Hebrew, meaning "generation" or "dwelling." However, a closer examination reveals a more compelling etymology. The Albanian Connection The Albanian language holds the key to unlocking the true origins of Tel Dor's name. The word "dorë" in Albanian means "hand." Remarkably, the geographical shape of Tel Dor, with its landmass extending into the sea, resembles a hand. Etymological Analysis The name "Dor" can be directly linked to the Albanian "dorë" (hand). This etymology is reinforced by the site's unique geography, which would have inspired the ancient Albanian speakers to name the place accordingly. Challenging Traditional Accounts Traditional etymologies proposing...

The word "dagger" refers to a short knife with a pointed tip and a blade, used as a weapon. However, the etymology of this word has long been shrouded in mystery. Linguists have proposed various theories, including an Old French origin, a possible connection to the Roman province of Dacia, and even a Celtic or Vulgar Latin influence. Despite these theories, the true origins of the word "dagger" remain unclear. That is, until we examine the Albanian language. The word "dagger" can be broken down into its constituent parts: "DA" and "GJË". In Albanian, "DA" means "to divide" or "to separate", while "GJË" means "thing" or "object". Construction Algorithm: DA+GJË The construction algorithm for the word "dagger" reveals an interesting pattern. The root "DA" is combined with the auxiliary unit "GJË", resulting in a word that conveys the idea of a sharp, ...

Continuation of the article "Albanian Roots of Greek Gods" posted on June 19, 2023 in my blog. In Homer's works, Erebus refers to the realm of darkness between the Earth and Hades. Linguists have traditionally attributed the origin of Erebus to Greek Erebos, via Latin Erebus, but its etymology has remained unclear. Proposed Origins Some scholars have suggested possible connections to: 1. Semitic languages (e.g., Hebrew erebh, meaning "sunset" or "evening"). 2. Proto-Indo-European (PIE) *regw-es-, associated with darkness (also seen in Sanskrit rajas and Gothic). Another theory links it to Proto-Indo-European *h₁régʷos. Cognate with Old Armenian երեկ (erek, “evening”), Sanskrit रजस् (rájas, “dimness, darkness, mist”) and Old Norse røkkr (“twilight”). Albanian Origins However, a more compelling case can be made for an Albanian origin. The Albanian word "err" means "dark" or "darkness," providing a plausible etymological link...

Origjina e "Bad" "keq/e keqe" ka qenë prej kohësh një mister për gjuhëtarët, me origjinën e saj të paqartë. Megjithatë, një analizë e freskët e Petro Zhejit hedh dritë të re mbi këtë koncept. Anglishtja e mesme dhe rrënjët e anglishtes së vjetër* Në anglishten e mesme, "bad" shkruhej "bad" ode "badde", duke përcjellë kuptime të tilla si "i lig", "i keq" ose "i shthurur". Gjuhëtarët kanë propozuar teori të ndryshme, duke përfshirë një shkurtim të mundshëm të "bæddel" në anglishten e vjetër, që i referohej një organizmi femëror ose mashkullor. Lidhja proto-indo-evropiane Disa gjuhëtarë sugjerojnë se "e keqja" mund të lidhet me "*bʰedʰ-" proto-indo-evropiane, që do të thotë "të përkulesh", "të shtypësh" ose "të shtysh". Megjithatë, kjo lidhje mbetet spekulative. Përparimi i Petro Zhejit Analiza e Petro Zhejit për fjalën ruse “beda” (që do të thotë “te...

The Development of the Albanian Language Adjective "lën(ë)" The Albanian language adjective "lën(ë)" originates from the verbal form "lë/lá". The phonetic evolution of the verb "lë/lâ" is characterized by two main directions: LO>LA>LE>LË and LO>LU (luj, luej, loj, loz, leviz).  The Albanian language has retained these roots in almost all its dialects. The third person singular or plural is used for word formations and new concepts in Albanian. This is evident in the evolution of the third person plural form: LON>LÁN>LAN>LEN>LËN. Meanwhile, the other direction evolves as LON>LUN. Interestingly, the English words "leave", "lost", "allow", "play", "let" and "loose" share a common origin with the Albanian verb "lë/lâ". This is because the meanings of these English words are all encompassed within the semantics of the Albanian verb "lë" (lâ in Ge...

Much has been written and said about human stupidity. From ancient times to the present day, our ancestors have attempted to explain human stupidity, even attributing it to a deity. However, no linguist has endeavored to discover the true origin of the word. What insight does the Albanian language offer into this concept? In Greek mythology, Koalemos (Ancient Greek: Κοάλεμος) was the god of stupidity, also known as the fool, mentioned in the works of Aristophanes and Plutarch's Parallel Lives. The Latin spelling of the name is Coalemus. Furthermore, the word κοάλεμος was used to describe a "fool". An ancient false etymology suggests that κοάλεμος originates from κοέω (koeō), meaning "to perceive", and ἡλεός (ēleos), meaning "disturbed" or "crazy". However, the true etymology of this word remains unconfirmed. The Albanian language employs symbolic expressions such as "lënë, i marrë, i ka ikur mendja, ka kaluar, shkalluar".  The phras...

Është shkruar dhe thënë shumë për marrëzinë njerëzore. Janë përpjekur ta shpjegojnë marrëzinë njerëzore që nga lashtësia e deri në ditët e sotme, madje paraardhësit tanë i kishin dhënë një emrin një hyjnie, dhe të gjithë përgjegjësinë për marrëzinë që e bën njeriun të paaftë të mendërisht, por asnjë gjuhëtar nuk është munduar të gjejëdhe zbulojë origjinen e vërtetë te fjales. Çfarë sjell gjuha shqipe për kë koncept? Në mitologjinë "greke", Koalemos (greqishtja e lashtë: Κοάλεμος) ishte perëndia e marrezisë, budadallekut, i përmendur në veprat e Aristofanit dhe Jetëve paralele të Plutarkut.  Drejtshkrimi latin i emrit është Coalemus. Për më tepër, fjala κοάλεμος u përdor për të përshkruar një "budalla".  Një etimologji e rreme nga kohët e lashta sugjeron se κοάλεμος e ka origjinën nga κοέω (koeō), që do të thotë "perceptoj" dhe ἡλεός (ēleos), që do të thotë "i shqetësuar" ose "i çmendur".  Megjithatë, etimologjia e vërtetë e kësaj fjale ...

The English word "bite" originates from the Proto-Indo-European word *bʰeyd-, conveying the notion of "to split" or "to divide." This etymological root reveals a profound connection to the Albanian language. Breaking Down the Roots The word *bʰeyd- can be decomposed into two distinct Albanian roots: " Bʰe " This root is reminiscent of the Albanian verb "bej," meaning "to make" or "to do." In this context, "bej" serves as an auxiliary component, facilitating the creation of the word "bite." The verb "bej" carries a rich semantic significance, implying the act of bringing something into existence or shaping reality. "Yd" The second root, "yd," is closely tied to the symbolism of the letter "Y." This letter represents the union of two I's or the division of a single Y into two I's. This duality inherent in the letter "Y" reflects the fundament...

Putin's actions constitute war crimes, leading to thousands of innocent victims on both sides.  Regarding the Russian residents in Ukraine, they should have to decide their fate, not Putin, not Trump, not Zelenskyy, free from external influence. This idea is echoed in the proposal for a referendum in the occupied lands, ensuring that the russian residents' decisions are respected and implemented. To achieve a fair resolution, several key steps can be taken: - Withdrawal of Russian forces : Russian troops should withdraw from occupied Ukrainian lands to pave the way for peaceful negotiations. - Accountability for war crimes : Putin should be held accountable for war crimes and tried by an international court. - Peacekeeping and referendum : Peacekeeping forces should take control of occupied lands, and a referendum should be held to determine the fate of Russian residents. - Democratic reforms : Democratic elections should be held in both Ukraine and Russia to ensure that the vo...
