përseks

Unknown. Maybe from Proto-Indo-European *sek- (“to cut”).

From archaic *ndërtokë (“underground”), the first part ndër- (“under”) from *n̥dʰér and the second part tokë (“land, ground”), with an original meaning of "to lay foundations". Orel suggests a contraction of Romance *directare, but semantic problems and the prefix ndër- makes the theory unlikely. Matzinger claims it has no known etymology

rradake (plural)
rradakja (definite)
rradaket (definite plural)


shikonin

third-person plural imperfect indicative of shikoj


rruva

According to Orel, somehow related to rrush with an unclear development.


gëzof

According to Orel, either derived from or from the same origin as Ancient Greek γαύσαπος (gaúsapos, “frieze”), or more likely, dialectal Ancient Macedonian γαυσἃφος (gaushàphos), as PA derivatives do not fit correctly with either Greek spelling. The substratum language is or has been influenced by a Semitic source such as Akkadian 𒆪𒍦𒁍 (/kuzippu, guzippu/, “cloak, clothing, wrapping especially for warmth”).
According to Jokl, it is from an ancient substrate from reconstructed *gʰốu-di-āpos, probably "bovine".


lalë

Ultimately a babble word, compare jajë (“aunt”). Compare also Aromanian lalã (“uncle”), Greek λαλάς (lalás, “grandfather, governor, mentor”), λαλά (lalá, “grandmother”), Calabrian Greek leḍḍé (“brother”), leḍḍá (“sister”). Possibly from dialectal Persian لالا (lâlâ, “elder brother”) via dialectal Ottoman Turkish لالا (lala), compare dialectal sense “sister”, whereas the standard and widely attested sense is “tutor”. Sense 2 may have possibly arisen given the reported usage of the word as particular of the region.

father (by his children), especially if young

(colloquial) older male relative
older brother (by his siblings)

older brother-in-law (by his siblings-in-law)

Uncertain. Similar to Proto-Slavic *šumъ, comparing it to Serbo-Croatian šum. However the presence of a -r-, the irregular correspondence zh-š and the lack of a Slavic cognate in Romanian, shows that the word is not of Slavic origin. Compare Italian ciurma.

dorza

Unknown. Maybe from dorë, with the meaning "to harvest by hand"


djegagur

From djeg + gur, literally "month during which the stones are burning hot".


djegqerrës

From djeg + qerre, literally "month in which wagons burn", of unknown meaning. Note archaic Serbian and Macedonian коложег (koložeg), also a compound of коло (kolo, “wheel”) + жег (žeg, “warmth”), which may point to an old regional isogloss.


zhishte

Earlier *shiste, somehow from Sanskrit शिश्न (śiśna). Perhaps through a Romani source.


llamburitës

From Ancient Greek λάμπω (lámpō) + -ur + -tës.


avulli

Borrowed through Vulgar Latin from Latin vallum. Alternatively from Proto-Indo-European *wel- (“to turn, wind, roll”).


kallnor

From an older kallënduor, borrowed through Vulgar Latin from Latin calendārium. Compare archaic/popular Romanian cărindar (“id.”). Doublet of kalendar.


karra-

Unknown. Might be related to prefix kala-


brymës

Borrowed through Vulgar Latin from Latin brūmārius (compare Romanian brumar (“November”), Friulian brumâr (“winter”), also French Brumaire), from brūma (“winter, mist”) (compare Romanian brumă (“frost”)).

From Proto-Albanian *kala, from Proto-Indo-European *kwel- (“to turn, twist”).

uder

kala- + mendje (“mind”) → kalamend (“I confuse”)


brerore

A derivation of bri (“horn”), contaminated with brinjë (“rib”, literally “horn-shaped or semicircular halo over one's head”). Alternatively, it might be an irregular derivation of Latin aurora, with a strong change in pronunciation similar to Ancient Greek αὔρα (aúra). The evolution could have been aurora > *avreora > *vrerore > brerore.


Shpirag

Mentioned the first time as toponym by Gjon Buzuku, Shpinager - from Albanian shpin(ë) - back, and ager - donkey, Shpiragër due to n->r transformation in later centuries, more recently truncated as Shpirag.
