Likely inherited from Proto-Indo-European *h₂eh₁ter- (“fire”), whence also Proto-Iranian *HáHtr̥š (“fire”) and Latin āter (“black, darkened *(by fire)”), ātrium (“room *(where the fire is)”). Also found in Balkan Romance and most Slavic languages, although the presence of va- ~ vo- originating from earlier *o (cf. vadhë, varfër, vesh, etc.), itself from earlier *ā, reaveals it as an originally Albanian term, or more generally a Paleo-Balkan one, then evolved into the Tosk Albanian form before being borrowed in the other languages. It arrived in some Slavic languages likely through Balkan Romance. An early borrowing from Latin āter, ātrium, although it cannot be entirely ruled out, is improbable, while a borrowing from Iranian is deemed unlikely due to geographical-historical reasons and the semantic field of the term. Compare French foyer and German Fokus, Brennpunkt for the scientifical senses.

From Proto-Albanian *mālā, akin to Ancient Greek μῆλον (mêlon, “apple”), Latin mālum (“apple”), either a cognate or borrowed from either of the two. Likely from a western dialect borrowed from Doric Greek. A borrowing from Latin would be unusually early, as the shift from *ā to o, characteristic of inherited words, would not be paralleled in any other Latin loan. Direct inheritance is formally possible, though dubious given the defined areal distribution and the absence of any clear cognate outside of it. See Ancient Greek μῆλον (mêlon) for further connections. Sense 2 is a common metaphor, compare Ancient Greek μῆλον (mêlon, “cheek”) etc.

Pes gishta na i ka dora, // Kater kom na i ka dhija, // Tri kam terezija, // E dy molla na i ka vajza. (northwestern Gheg)

Uncertain. The -b- is most likely epenthetic to avoid the -mr- cluster. Theories that have put forward are:
# Akin to Arbëresh zë (“soul”). Compare Romanian inimă (“heart”), from Latin anima (“soul”), which is the only other Indo-European language to have supplanted the original Proto-Indo-European *ḱḗr ~ *ḱr̥dés. The morphemes involved and the ultimate etymology are not clear. Some proposals have been put forward:
## From the verb zë／zâ (“to seize”), although this has been doubted.
## Has been compared with Ancient Greek εὐθηνέω (euthēnéō, “to thrive, bloom”), itself of unclear origin.
# Linked with Proto-Germanic *gamaną (“companion; fun”) to a tentative root Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰem- (“to move violently”), although this is very dubious.
# A connection with Ancient Greek ῑ̔́μερος (hī́meros, “yearning, love”) is phonetically unlikely.
Similarity with Ottoman Turkish ضمیر (zamir, “interior part; heart”) is coincidental.

Unclear. Akin to Arbëresh glunzë (“voice”). Possibilities include:
# Inherited from Proto-Indo-European *gol(H)-s-os, via a byform *gl̥(H)-s-ós, whence also Proto-Slavic *golsъ (“voice”), Lithuanian gal̃sas (“voice”), Proto-Germanic *kalz-ōną (“to call”). However the medial -h- instead of expected **-sh- is left unexplained.
# From a byform *ǵʰnud-sḱ-eh₂, doubly methasised from Proto-Indo-European *dn̥ǵʰwéh₂s ~ *dn̥ǵʰuh₂és (“tongue”). Compare Tocharian B kantwo, also metathised. The outcome gl- (and later gj-) from original *ǵ(ʰ)n- is also attested in gju (“knee”). The usage of the infixed *-sḱ- does not seem have any parallels.
# A connection with Ancient Greek γλῶσσα (glôssa), itself of unclear origin, cannot be proven.
