lëgatash (ablative indefinite plural)
lëgatave (ablative definite plural)

Also lëngatë under the influence of lëng ~ lang. From Proto-Albanian *leugatā, related to Illyrian *Lougeon (Strabo 7.43), Lithuanian liūgas (“marsh”), Proto-Slavic *luža (“pool”). Analyzable as lag + -at(ë).


shosh

head

shosh (aorist shosha, participle shoshur)

From Proto-Albanian *śēś-, from Proto-Indo-European *seh1i- (“to sift, riddle”). Cognate to Ancient Greek σα̃σις (sãsis, “sieve”). The sh- comes from ś- by regressive assimiliation, with the second -ś- of the next syllable. A loanword from the Greek cannot be excluded.

uder

(figurative, originally northwestern Gheg, Shkodra) to investigate in minute detail, to know inside out


shkep

head

shkep (aorist shkepa, participle shkepur)

From kep. Beside shqep, an Albanian formation with the intensive prefix sh-, from Proto-Albanian *skaipa. Compare Old Norse skífa (“to split”), Old Frisian skīvia (“to divide”) and perhaps English shape.


shkep

A parallel form is shkrep, continuing Proto-Albanian *krepa (“body”), cognate to Sanskrit कृप् (ḱṛp, “shape, beautiful appareance”), Latin corpus (“body”), Old High German hrēf (“belly”). Similar sense development in Germanic (compare Gothic galeiks (“like”), from leik (“body”)).


lagë

Akin to lag (“to wet, moisten”), lëgatë (“marsh”) and possibly laç (“wetland”). Likely a formation from Proto-Indo-European *welg- (“wet, damp”), akin to Proto-Slavic *vòlga (“moisture”). Alternatively borrowed from South Slavic descendants of it, compare Serbo-Croatian vlȁga／вла̏га, Aromanian vlagã (“moisture”).

Compare Lithuanian tūpiù (“to get down, lay on one's knees”), Old Norse Þopta (“thwart”), Gothic 𐌸𐌹𐌿𐍆𐍃 (þiufs, “thief”). Or, simply onomatopoeic for chewing; cf. pështyj (“to spit”).

egjër

Possibly linked to egër as in "bar i egër" ("wild grass"), forming the now old singularized plural from të egjër or a now obscure word with the privative prefix e- + gjër (compare esëll, egjëll and German Unkraut). A loanword from Latin ebria is unlikely due to unexplainable phonological and semantic difficulties.

From Proto-Albanian *tšela, from Proto-Indo-European *kʷél-e-ti, from *kʷel- (“to turn, twist”). Cognate to Ancient Greek πέλω (pélō, “to be in motion”), Tocharian A köllāš (“bring”), preterit śël, Old Norse hvel (“wheel”). Somehow, the archaic form has generated Arbëresh Albanian qellënj with an apparently conservative q-.


kuar

From older kuor(r). According to Çabej and Demiraj from a derivative of korr According to Orel from Latin chorus (“dance in a ring, harmony, harmonious motion”).
