About the Albanian Language
Albanian (Shqip) is a unique Indo-European language that forms its own distinct branch with no close relatives. Spoken by approximately 7.5 million people, it is the official language of Albania and Kosovo, with significant communities in North Macedonia, Montenegro, Italy, and diaspora populations worldwide.
What makes Albanian fascinating is its linguistic isolation and resilience. Despite influences from neighboring languages, Albanian has maintained its distinctive character through centuries. It features a complex grammatical structure with noun cases, a rich verbal system, and a vocabulary that reflects historical contacts with Latin, Greek, Turkish, and Slavic languages.
