The concept of "fluire" evokes images of something liquid, loose, and flowing, lacking defined form and stability. Water, a fundamental element in nature, embodies these characteristics. But have you ever wondered about the etymology behind "fluire" and its connection to water?
According to traditional etymology, "fluire" derives from Latin "fluidus," which stems from "fluere," meaning "to flow." However, a deeper exploration suggests that both "fluere" and "fluidus" might have Albanian roots:
1. "Uj" (water)
2. "Lu" (to move)
This theory proposes that the Albanian words influenced the Latin terms, despite Latin having distinct words for water ("aqua") and move ("move"). This potential connection highlights:
1. Linguistic exchange and borrowing
2. Albanian's possible impact on Latin vocabulary
3. Complexity of language evolution
Further research into this etymological link could provide insights into the historical interactions between languages and cultures. By examining the intersections of Albanian and Latin, we can gain a deeper understanding of language development and cultural exchange.

The term Nephilim occurs in Genesis 6:1-4, describing the point of time when three things began: men began to increase in number, came into existence the daughters of men , and the sons of God went to the daughters of men and had children by them. Is the "nephillim" really only a Hebrew word? That question is very subtle, however I think it has been more a limit of thinking for linguists rather than a serious argument. Let's begin first with the probable meaning the linguists think it is. We know that the " fall" in every language means moving downward from a higher position involuntarily, usually by an accident, which maybe was the reason why Michael S. Heiser, PhD candidate, Department of Hebrew and Semitic Studies , University of Wisconsin...
