The word Center (eng), Centrum (Lat), Kentrum (Greek), Qendër (albanian), only in Albanian is meaningful: Që-është-ndër, thats mean: "something-in-the-middle" (exactly the meaning of the word), so the origin of word "Center" is from Albanian word "Qendër"
that's not quite how historical linguistics works
***** duh, express, is etymologically "ex-out, from without"+"press-to push", so literally "to push it out". Don't make yourself of an ignorant linguist.
Frosiana G Lol, he's not realizing the cent-thing, perhaps he should first learn latin before make such a fool of himself.
+Alban JashAri You are still going with this pseudo-linguistics?
+Alban JashAri Slavic word for Family isn't Family, nor does it come from Albanian, that's a word borrowed from Latin Familia, the Slavic word is Porodica, Rodov, Rodzina, Rodina etc. By linguistical analysis we can conclude that the generic word comes from a word Rod also meaning cousin, relative, offspring. Comes from the name of an old Slavic deity Rod, god of creation, life, nature, and offspring, hence the Po-Rod-ica, Rod-ov, Rod-ina. As Rod means cousin, relative, Po-rod means offspring, Pri-rod-a mens nature etc.
As far as your analysis of words, it's, again, wrong. I told you this before, but seems it was in vain, words like Mama, Papa, Baba etc come from sounds babies make aka vocal reflex, and are common in almost all languages in the world.
The word Brother comes from the Sanskrit word Brathar, spread via Proto Germanic Brothar, Greek Phrater, Old Church Slavonic Bratru etc and has the same meaning.
Btw the word Express has two meanings, i/e fast and i/e representation (of thoughts, feelings), as former comes from Latin Exprimere - Expresus, borrowed via medieval Latin into Old French as Espres, becoming later Expres, while as latter comes from Latin Expressare and in Old French as Expresser (Ex-press -> to speak one's mind, to squeee out). Rubin Domi explained it quite well.
Due to the fact that there's plenty of short words in Albanian, they are being used as syllables to form a connection thus forcing phonetic similarities that otherwise wouldn't exist. As such it's beyond ridiculous.
[Edit] This pseudo-linguistics can be used to claim almost anything, which doesn't make it so.
I am albanian with brown hair but when i was born i had blonde hair due to mother's heritage which is polish and check. Everybody in school thought i was italian because my family lived in italy before coming to the united states. I was afraid to say i was not italian. Now i am proud to be albanian and american.

*IT APPEARS, DR. MICHIEL DE VAAN, HAS NOT DONE HIS HOME WORK REGARDING THE ORIGINS OF ALBANIANS AND THE ALBANIAN LANGUAGE. IT IS NOT TRUE THAT ALBANIANS HAVE CHANGED THEIR LANGUAGE SEVERAL TIMES DURING THE LAST MILLENIA. THIS IS A HISTORICAL AND LINGUISTIC LIE. THE ALBANIAN LANGUAGE HAS NOT CHANGED IN ITS CORE FOR 10 THOUSAND YEARS, BUT OF COURSE HAS EVOLVED FROM AN OLD ALBANIAN TO A MODERN ALBANIAN. IT IS NOT TRUE AT ALL THAT ALBANIAN LANGUAGE HAS BORROWED A LOT OF LOANWORDS FROM LATIN, GREEK OR TURKISH. THE OPPOSITE IS TRUE. LATIN LANGUAGE (WHICH IS A NON-ETHNIC LAB CREATED LANGUAGE), AS WELL 'GREEK' (WHICH IS A NON-ETHNIC LAB CREATED LANGUAGE) AND TURKISH LANGUAGE HAVE BORROWED A LOT OF LOADWORDS FROM ANCIENT ALBANIAN AS WELL THE MODERN ALBANIAN. READ BELOW MR. DE VAAN, TO LEARN A BIT MORE IN DEPTH ABOUT ALBANIANS AND THE ALBANIAN LANGUAGE.*
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*THERE WERE NO "GREEKS" IN ANCIENT TIMES, IT'S ALL A SCAM FROM CON AND PLANTED "HISTORIANS" - THERE WERE ANCIENT ILLYRIAN AND PELASGIAN KINGDOMS/CONFEDERATIONS IN ANCIENT TIMES, FALSELY PRESENTED AS "GREEK" BY CON AND PLANTED HISTORIANS*
The so-called “Greece” is a made-up and fake country - made out of ethnic cleansing, racism, holocaust and ethnocide against Albanians (Arvanites and Chams) of Lower Albania.
All (100%) leading and senior commanders of the 1821 revolution in the Lower Albania (called unjustly “Greece” today - a name without any factual and historical meaning), where Albanians (Chams and Arberors/Arvanites).
Up until 1832, all that region (called “Greece” today) spoke only Albanian.
Out of 100% of the people living there in that region up until 1832, about 92-95% were Albanians (Arvanites and Chams), the rest were minorities.
Albanians are the descendants of Pelasgians and Illyrians (since 10,000 years and more ago).
Alexander the Great -was a Pelasgian King of Illyrian/Pelasgian Confederation of Macedonia, falsely presented as "Greek" by con and "planted" historians.
The Trojan War - was a war between Pelasgians and Illyrians - both ancient Albanian kingdoms/confederations, falsely represented as “Greek” by con and planted “historians”.
Homer's "Iliad and Odyssey" epic poems are Pelasgian era poems - falsely represented as "Greek" by con and planted "historians".
The Thermopylae Battle - was a battle between Pelasgian army (Sparta - a Pelasgian city) and Persian army, falsely represented as "Greek" battle against Persians by con and planted "historians".
The Koine/”Greek” language (a made-up religious language of Roman Empire times - same as Latin language was a religious language for the western part of the Roman Empire), was forced onto Albanians of that region (Arvanites and Chams) after 1832, through ethnic cleansing, holocaust and ethnocide by European powers (through racist Prince Otto of Germany), Russian Empire of that time, and the dangerous anti-Christian sect/cult called “Anadolli Orthodox Church”.
There is no such thing as “Greece”.
Greece is a scam country, artificially created by 1832, from the mafia type collusion of corrupt European powers of that time who brought Prince Otto of Germany to power in that region, Russian Empire of that time, and the dangerous anti-Christian sect/cult of so-called Anadolli Orthodox Church (expelled by Turks from Anatolia of that time, 1832, together with its followers of "Greek religious rite").
This country so-called “Greece”, has gone entirely bankrupt and belly-up five times from 1832 through 2018, has changed the “official language” of the country two times, and has changed the national flag three times from 1832 through 2019.
The latest and current national flag of this “Greece” being a blue-color replica of the East India Company flag (the British company who ruled and controlled all trade to and from India during the British rule in India).
This is enough to tell all, who this made-up country really is - a country with no real and true national identity, a zombie country.
If it was not for the free money from Germany, Russian Empire and European powers of that time (1832) and European Union now being poured every year to this “Greece” since 1832 through present, this kind of country would cease to exist tomorrow. And the big joke is, that this “Greece” is in a state of war with Albania today.
This “Greece” has officially declared war against Albania since October 1940 - through the Law of the Declaration of War against Albania, approved by the “Greek” parliament and the foreign powers’ installed King for “Greece” on October 1940.
Freedom and full human and national rights to 9 million Albanians of Lower Albania (called unjustly “Greece” today).
Freedom to Albanians of Lower Albania (called unjustly “Greece” today). Albanian should be the official language of the Lower Albania, and the country should be officially called and internationally recognized as Lower Albania.

German Philosopher
What did Albanians 🇦🇱 have before the Ottoman invasion?
1. Albanians had a University in 1380 in Durrës. To give you an idea: Germany opened its first university, 6 years after Durrës (Heidelberg University).
2. Albanians had 6 fully developed cities as much as Florence, Venice, Marseille or Paris. (Durrës, Shkodra, Drishti, Lezha, Berat and Preveza).
3. Albanians had the aristocratic class with 8 noble families (Balshaj, Topiaj, Muzakaj, Kastrioti, Arianiti, Zebenishta, Spataj and Dukagjini) connected by marriage even with the Habsburgs and the Bourbons.
4. Albanians had the humanist philosophers, who with their genius ideas, were advisers to the imperial families in Hungary, Italy and Austria (Gjon Gazhuli, Pal Ungjëlli, Leonik Tomeo and Gjon Durrsaku).
5. Albanian cities had statutes and were governed by democracy while at the same time America for example it was governed by the Cherokee Indians or the Aztec tribes who still drank human blood and lived as cannibals.
6. In Durrës, intellectualism was so high that we have documented in the 12th century for the first time the note of protest of an Orthodox Metropolitan, who writes to Constantinople, against slavery, 300 years before it started as a debate in Europe.
7. In Durrës, trade was done even with Tunisia, Ukraine and France, since the 5th century. While at the same time for example the Scandinavian countries still lived by worshiping the tree or the mountain.
8. The Church of Albania had issued a Cardinal (and a cardinal was no small thing then).
What happened next? The Ottomans just came and for 500 years made that every Albanian forgot who they really were.

It is understandable why the Serbs and Greeks claim that Albanians aren't decedents of Illyrians. Kosovo, Southeast Of Albania where Yanina is and a lot of other lands that where invaded on the 19th and 20th Centuries. If you didn't belong there you have no right of claim. This started with the Serbs claim that George Kastrioti was Serb because his mother was of the Slavic decent . The Greeks endorsed that theory by claiming that his father Jon Kastrioti was Greek. With 75% of Albanians being muslims and under the Turkish Empire until 1912 and later after the Second World War under a North Korea style communist government , it was easy to make these claims. Albania was a country pillaged by foreign invaders and with no recorded history. If we know anything about history it's written by those who invaded, pillaged and hung the heroes of that country. In a few words, the burden of proof is upon those who claim that Albanians were brought there by an other power or migrated. A united great Albania would be a super power in the Balkan . George Kastrioti an Albanian ( see the Vatican documents) with 10000 troops most of the times held against multiple Turkish attacks , even the Sultan himself numbering up to 200000 troops for over 25 years. In a few words: if you want to write your own history go and change it. To the winner go the spoils.
It is already proven beyond a shadow of a doubt not only by recorded history but also evidenced through language, etymologies, toponyms and in particular onomastics. Georgios Kastriotis was an Epirote never an Albanian and Epiroteans were and are historically Greeks. There was no Albania during that time and no Albanian named George or John.

I agree with you, that there are blond, red and brown haired albanians. But, we all have the same facial features. We can recognize each other from 1 km. I've never seen such a nation, where people have the same features. Plus, MOST OF our children are blond for about 7-8 years since their birth. After 8 years, their hair tend to get darker. It happened to my brothers, father and many of my cousins. Some of my cousins even had blond hair till they were 14/16.
Thats so true especially with the hair and recognizing each other
True, I was born blonde brown eyes and I right now I got Light brown hair and red beard.
@Konstantin Trehagyrevopoulos
you are wrong, tendency to have dark skin the perpetrators are the Spaniards and the Portuguese, as well as the Greeks of southern origin, while the northern Greeks are whiter and mixed with Bulgarians, Albanians, Jews, and Vlachs. while in Albania the tendency to have darker skin is Durres and a large part of Tirana, because in those areas the Ottomans brought Egyptian Arab Turks as professors to teach Albanians Islam, but Albanians living in non-mainstream cities have a tendency to be whiter. The original Albanians are whiter than the Spaniards, Portuguese, southern Italians, and southern Greeks. I personally am Albanian with origins from Struga, my father's tribe are dark blonde and blue eyes and white skin, while from my mother's tribe are very black hair and long slender bodies I personally look very similar to Circassians , while my dad looks like he was Bulgarian (Bulgarian blonde)
but we are neither Bulgarian nor Circassian, but we are 100% Albanian because even from our grandparents we always spoke Albanian
so we can not say that all Mediterranean bands tend to be black.

Since 1908 Albanian has been based on the Latin alphabet, but before that the same language could be and was written in 4alphabets: Latin, Greek, Turkish Arabic and Cyrillic (96). ... The Albanian language belongs to the family of Indo-European languages. It is one of the oldest languages, yet different from the others.
Albania has never had its own language, only in the last few years...

I respect your willingness to research our people but I categorically disagree with your notions on the “assumed” origins of the Albanians. The Albanian & Romanian commonalities are due to Illyrian & Thracian interaction and their common pre- Indo-European ancestors. There is also no documented case of Slavic people from “thousands of villages” going through a process of Albanianization. Lastly the reason for Albanian having more in common with Latin than Greek linguistically is not due to a migration, but a historical over exaggeration of the Greek language and its dominance over the eastern Mediterranean. Similarities between Greeks and Southern Albanians are very apparent in music, dress, cuisine, and even physical appearance. Indicating a long history of interaction dating millennia.
put it shortly: Albanians are descendants of partly romanized Paleo-Balkanic tribes of antiquity. We have our own language tree, 60% Roman loanwords from the Roman conquest of the Balkans, and our name is derived from the Illyrian ‘Albani’ tribe, mentioned by Ptolemy in Central and North Albania in 150AD. Albanian and Romanian share multiple hundred common words, some of them are pre-Roman old-Balkanic. There has never been any recorded migration of Albanians whatsoever, we just ‘appear’ in the North Albanian, hardly accessible mountains in 1043 as the ‘Albanoi’ tribe mentioned by Ptolemy nearly 1000 years prior. In our own language, we called ourselves ‘Arberësh’ at that point, and our country ‘Arbëria’, which are thought to be connected with the latin/greek name ‘Albani’.
There are another 50 points I could list about the two Albanian dialects having formed before the Slavic migration into the Balkans near the Shkumbin river, and the Illyrian tribal names that are provingly connected to Albanian words (Dardani, Dalmati, Taulanti etc.). There are a lot of arguments regarding Albanian origin.
Now tell me: what are the two major options of Albanian origin? Exactly: Illyrian, or Daco-Thracian. There are no other people groups that lived in the ancient Balkans (beside Hellenics obviously). Only these two. That’s why all modern scholars working on Albanian origin argue wether Albanians are Illyrian or Dacian. There is not enough evidence about either of these two languages to fully say which is right.
All we know is that, due to geographical reasons, the Albanian-Illyrian tribal names, the Albanian connection to the Messapic-Illyrian dialect of Apulia and the name of Albania being of Illyrian origin, Albanians are considered as the likely remnants of Illyrian mountain tribes by mainstream historians.
If you Wanna compare Croats (or other slavs) with Romans, its wrong, for one reason: Croats speak a Slavic language, while Albanians have their independent language that is the last survivor of a language family which is mostly extinct. And there are two language families in the ancient Balkans that are extinct today; Illyrian and Dacian-Thracian. No wonder scholars consider Albanian the survivor of one of these two.
Slavs arrived in 6th century in Ballkan as a servant Serbia in Greek language b is for v serbia in greek servia as a serv servant
Yes and than they say servus came from latin, dont come say to me that romans called them selfs barbarians, there was no slavic migration to the balkans, the name slavs came in the 6th century, but the name SERBI, is 2000 years before Christ, its a lie about albanian-illyrian origin,
+TheusZeusDeus ahaha Documents and evidence to support your argument ? I'm sorry for you, but documents concerning the Albanian immigration in the Balkans NOT exist , unlike the slave migrations .
+SerbHistory yugovic 2000 years before Christ ? Hahaha no you're wrong Serbs in the Balkans by millions or perhaps billions of years . Haha stop with this nationalist propaganda
+TheusZeusDeus Perhaps it is as you say , but the evidence regarding the Albanian emigration does not exist . Your are only insinuations, but no one knows for sure how long the Albanians residing in the Balkans .
+TheusZeusDeus Then I do not mean that your hypothesis is wrong regardless, I'm not interested nationalism, but in the absence of evidence, all other assumptions made by the experts are plausible. The Illyrian ancestry remains plausible as well as that of the ancient Dacian. There are many important linguists and anthropologists that confirm the antiquity of the Albanian language, among all the Italian Cavalli-Sforza (recognized as one of the best in its field) even claimed that albanian is the oldest language in Europe together Armenian. Anyway this language remains an enigma.

he is talking about albania without having any knowledge about the language ... is completely the other way around . is way deeper then what he is explaining .
The answers are already there, just use the right formula. It's very easy to analyze the Albanian language anyone can do it. Just have any Albanian-English vocabulary (Italian, German or other), and start counting the syllables of the Albanian language. Remember that a tonal language, for example, the syllable (BA) has 3 different meanings depending on the tone (or accent). The syllables are of two types; Biphonetics 285 (BA) and trophonics more than 3600 (BAN)
You will find just under 4000 syllables.

The Albanian language is descended from the ancient Illyrian language, which in turn was ultimately evolved from the Paleo balkan family.

Caucasian Albanians were a people inhabiting an ancient state which was called (Caucasian) Albania retrospectively, situated in the Southern Caucasus. They are not related to modern Albanians in the Balkans - their name ‘Albania’ is a modern exonym, and was not used by the Caucasian Albanians themselves.
Caucasian Albanians originally called themselves and their country Aghwank and Aluank. Today, the Caucasian Albaniana still exist as an ethnicity - they are called the Udi.
The modern Udi, like their ancient ancestors in Aghwank, speak a Lezgic language. The Lezgic languages are a branch of the Northeast Caucasian languages. These languages are not related to the Indoeuropean languages.
Modern Albanian meanwhile constitutes it’s own independent branch among the Indoeuropean languages, being distantly related to almost all other European, as well as the Indo-Aryan languages. It is fully unrelated to the Lezgic languages, and descends from one of the Paleobalkanic languages of the ancient Balkans - Illyrian or Thracian. Most modern scholars agree on Albanian probably being the last remaining descendant of the Illyrian languages, while having been somewhat influenced by the Thracian languages. The only more closely related language to modern Albanian seems to be Messapic, the only Illyrian dialect that is partly preserved today, having been attested in ancient Apulia. Albanians today have their name from an Illyrian tribe attested in North-Albania in 150AD by Ptolemy, the Albanoi.
So, to conclude: No, Caucasus Albanians have nothing to do with Balkan Albanians, besides sharing a similar exonym - a coincidence, supported by another ancient region in Caucasus being called ‘Caucasus Iberia’ - which of course has nothing to do with modern Spain and Portugal.
An interesting side-note is that Scotland was called ‘Albania’ in early medieval times as well, and Great Britain ‘Albion’. Interesting is the predecessor city of modern Rome as well, ‘Alba Longa’. These examples have nothing to do with modern Albanians either, who, as I said, adopted a latinized Illyrian endonym in the early centuries AD. The name ‘Alba-’ was quite common among Indoeuropean languages (the Alp mountains being one example), which historically caused some confusion.
Gnostic/Gnosis = njohes (njoh osht) in Albanian that translate 'knowledge' in English.

Georg Kastrioti was Albanian from both parents his mother come frome tribal clan, which mean three clans joint together in one. As for his name Scanderbeg is given name from ottoman empire to honor his Albanian ansestor Aleksander the great. As for the bisantine flag bisanin got the flag from Constantine the Great the illyrian emporer/bisantin was boren in Illyria Nasus there for Bisantin flag is Albanian. Greek name is no where to fund bifor 1800.
Serbian and Greek, All the Family Names ar Greek and Serbian...
Leaving aside the fact that Kastrioti is a Greek name without question, his genealogy is also well known, because his grandfather was a Greek Byzantine prefect for Kastoria and Emathea, in mainland Greece, before the Ottomans. By the way the principalities still exist in Greece under the same names Kastoria and Emathea. There are no doubts about any of that. The Skanderbeg nickname comes from the Ottoman attributed Skender-bey which is the Turkish equivalent of Alexander-"Sir", also attesting his Greek Byzantine origin as also recognised by the Turks. Same is the story for the Serbian prince who aligned with him, he's also called Skender-bey also given to him by the Turks. For both of them converting to Islam came with renaming to Skender and keeping their Byzantine status and privileges under the Ottomans given the title "Bey". Which is what the Ottomans did everywhere to all whom they occupied anyway. You play along with them they get along with you. All that aside you may notice that none of the names or heritage references related to George Kastrioti have anything to do with Albania or Albanian language or onomatopoeia except failed efforts to imitate pronouncing his name as best they could, ending up calling him Skanderbeg. Couldn't even cope with the guy's actual name(s). Nor is it a surprise that the Albanian flag is a copy of the Byzantine Greek one, nor was it coincidentally chosen to be a Greek Byzantine one by George Kastrioti. At the very least anyone who is not completely brain dead can understand that since the Albanian flag was branded in the 15th century and the Byzantine pre-existed by about a millennium. Nor does it take a genius to notice the difference between and Albanian name like Enver Hoxha and a Geek one like George Kastrioti. These are all simple facts, that are only lost to nationalists and Enver Hohxa followers.

*THERE WERE NO "GREEKS" IN ANCIENT TIMES, IT'S ALL A SCAM FROM CON AND PLANTED "HISTORIANS" - THERE WERE ANCIENT ILLYRIAN AND PELASGIAN KINGDOMS/CONFEDERATIONS IN ANCIENT TIMES, FALSELY PRESENTED AS "GREEK" BY CON AND PLANTED HISTORIANS*
The so-called “Greece” is a made-up and fake country - made out of ethnic cleansing, racism, holocaust and ethnocide against Albanians (Arvanites and Chams) of Lower Albania.
All (100%) leading and senior commanders of the 1821 revolution in the Lower Albania (called unjustly “Greece” today - a name without any factual and historical meaning), where Albanians (Chams and Arberors/Arvanites).
Up until 1832, all that region (called “Greece” today) spoke only Albanian.
Out of 100% of the people living there in that region up until 1832, about 92-95% were Albanians (Arvanites and Chams), the rest were minorities.
Albanians are the descendants of Pelasgians and Illyrians (since 10,000 years and more ago).
Alexander the Great -was a Pelasgian King of Illyrian/Pelasgian Confederation of Macedonia, falsely presented as "Greek" by con and "planted" historians.
The Trojan War - was a war between Pelasgians and Illyrians - both ancient Albanian kingdoms/confederations, falsely represented as “Greek” by con and planted “historians”.
Homer's "Iliad and Odyssey" epic poems are Pelasgian era poems - falsely represented as "Greek" by con and planted "historians".
The Thermopylae Battle - was a battle between Pelasgian army (Sparta - a Pelasgian city) and Persian army, falsely represented as "Greek" battle against Persians by con and planted "historians".
The Koine/”Greek” language (a made-up religious language of Roman Empire times - same as Latin language was a religious language for the western part of the Roman Empire), was forced onto Albanians of that region (Arvanites and Chams) after 1832, through ethnic cleansing, holocaust and ethnocide by European powers (through racist Prince Otto of Germany), Russian Empire of that time, and the dangerous anti-Christian sect/cult called “Anadolli Orthodox Church”.
There is no such thing as “Greece”.
Greece is a scam country, artificially created by 1832, from the mafia type collusion of corrupt European powers of that time who brought Prince Otto of Germany to power in that region, Russian Empire of that time, and the dangerous anti-Christian sect/cult of so-called Anadolli Orthodox Church (expelled by Turks from Anatolia of that time, 1832, together with its followers of "Greek religious rite").
This country so-called “Greece”, has gone entirely bankrupt and belly-up five times from 1832 through 2018, has changed the “official language” of the country two times, and has changed the national flag three times from 1832 through 2019.
The latest and current national flag of this “Greece” being a blue-color replica of the East India Company flag (the British company who ruled and controlled all trade to and from India during the British rule in India).
This is enough to tell all, who this made-up country really is - a country with no real and true national identity, a zombie country.
If it was not for the free money from Germany, Russian Empire and European powers of that time (1832) and European Union now being poured every year to this “Greece” since 1832 through present, this kind of country would cease to exist tomorrow. And the big joke is, that this “Greece” is in a state of war with Albania today.
This “Greece” has officially declared war against Albania since October 1940 - through the Law of the Declaration of War against Albania, approved by the “Greek” parliament and the foreign powers’ installed King for “Greece” on October 1940.
Freedom and full human and national rights to 9 million Albanians of Lower Albania (called unjustly “Greece” today).
Freedom to Albanians of Lower Albania (called unjustly “Greece” today). Albanian should be the official language of the Lower Albania, and the country should be officially called and internationally recognized as Lower Albania.

You cant be etnic Shiptar you can be only Albanised Serb or Macedonian.
@Gabriel Ileri put it shortly: Albanians are descendants of partly romanized Paleo-Balkanic tribes of antiquity. We have our own language tree, 60% Roman loanwords from the Roman conquest of the Balkans, and our name is derived from the Illyrian ‘Albani’ tribe, mentioned by Ptolemy in Central and North Albania in 150AD. Albanian and Romanian share multiple hundred common words, some of them are pre-Roman old-Balkanic. There has never been any recorded migration of Albanians whatsoever, we just ‘appear’ in the North Albanian, hardly accessible mountains in 1043 as the ‘Albanoi’ tribe mentioned by Ptolemy nearly 1000 years prior. In our own language, we called ourselves ‘Arberësh’ at that point, and our country ‘Arbëria’, which are thought to be connected with the latin/greek name ‘Albani’.
There are another 50 points I could list about the two Albanian dialects having formed before the Slavic migration into the Balkans near the Shkumbin river, and the Illyrian tribal names that are provingly connected to Albanian words (Dardani, Dalmati, Taulanti etc.). There are a lot of arguments regarding Albanian origin.
Now tell me: what are the two major options of Albanian origin? Exactly: Illyrian, or Daco-Thracian. There are no other people groups that lived in the ancient Balkans (beside Hellenics obviously). Only these two. That’s why all modern scholars working on Albanian origin argue wether Albanians are Illyrian or Dacian. There is not enough evidence about either of these two languages to fully say which is right.
All we know is that, due to geographical reasons, the Albanian-Illyrian tribal names, the Albanian connection to the Messapic-Illyrian dialect of Apulia and the name of Albania being of Illyrian origin, Albanians are considered as the likely remnants of Illyrian mountain tribes by mainstream historians.
If you Wanna compare Croats (or other slavs) with Romans, its wrong, for one reason: Croats speak a Slavic language, while Albanians have their independent language that is the last survivor of a language family which is mostly extinct. And there are two language families in the ancient Balkans that are extinct today; Illyrian and Dacian-Thracian. No wonder scholars consider Albanian the survivor of one of these two.

The Albanian language, as well as the Albanians, Albanians, Arberesh, Arvanites, and further Illyrians or Pelasgians, have the most unique language in the world, the words of the Albanian language, can not find meaning or origin from any other language, as Albanian as a language has a special key, the Symbolic Algorithm, this means that the Albanian language gives the meaning of the thought expressed in the word, and there is no, but no other language in the world has this key, also Albanians are autochthonous as much as man himself on this land, this is confirmed by the toponymy of the names of most of Europe up to Asia Minor,
How can albanian language be the oldest in the balkans when it's an indo european language? There may be some pre indoeuropean elements in albanian language, but the main core of the albanian language is indo european
because most languages are very different from the older version of them, like for example ancient english or proto english is extremely different from modern english, but the albanian language has remained unchanged.
poor presentation , poor research and show clear luck of knowledge about Albania and Ilira , Pollaz and so on... anyway, scholars nowadays .....
Concrete proof of the Illyrian-Pelasgian origin of Albanians is provided by the study of the Albanian language. Despite some points of similarity in structure and phonetics, the Albanian language is entirely distinct from the languages spoken by neighboring natonalities. This language is particularly interesting as the only surviving representative of the alleged Thraco-Illyrian group of languages, which formed the primitive discourse of the inhabitants of the Balkan Peninsula. However, great difficulties, as, owing to the absence of the first literary monuments, no certainty can be reached regarding its previous forms and subsequent events. Eventually the Albanian language was permeated by a large number of foreign words, mainly from ancient Greek or Latin, which is younger than the Albanian language, but there is some indication that the early Illyrian language manifested some degree of influence on the grammatical development of the languages now spoken in the Balkan Peninsula.
There is, however, one very striking peculiarity in this entire question: that the Albanian language allows a reasonable explanation of the meaning of the names of ancient Greek Gods as well as the rest of the mythological creations. The explanations are so convincing to confirm the opinion that ancient Greek mythology had been borrowed, in its entirety, from the Illyrian-Pelasgians. As it was mentioned before, Zeus survives as "Zot" in the Albanian language. The invocation of his name is the common form of oath among modern Albanians. Athena (Latin Minerva), the goddess of wisdom as expressed in speech, should obviously derive its derivation from the Albanian "E Thëna," which means "simply speech". Thetis, the goddess of waters and seas, would seem to be only Albanian "Det" which means "the sea". It would be interesting to note that the word "Ulysses", if in its Latin or Greek form "Odysseus", means "the traveler" in the Albanian language, according to like the word "udhë", that stands for "the route "and" the journey ", is written with" d "or" l ", both forms being in use in Albania. Such examples can be provided ad libitum (libitum). No such facility is, however, permitted by the ancient Greek language, unless the explanation is an obligatory and distorted one; but in many cases even a mandatory and distorted so is not available at all.
Moreover, we must not forget the fact that Zeus was God Pelasgian par excellence, his original religious building being Dodona.
proof that we are Illyrians. The queen who reigned in the Balkans was called Teuta and this is a 1000% Albanian name and the country illir means free. Proof that we are also the ancient Greeks:
out of 2
Examples of names of gods and
deities
prehellenic
derived from Albanian
-
pelasgic.
Apart from any prejudice, the etymology of names which we are going to present here, conforms
strictly to an interpretation based on the conn
growth of ancient languages, and especially of the
Albanian. The only one to give the correct meaning to the names of certain gods, considered Greek without being
never such. The examples which have just been presented here, confirm the importance of the langu
Albanian
as a language which can give a reasoned answer to the questions of pre-Hellenic paleography, where
the names of the gods Pelasgians had been Greekized and pronounced without being able to give them an interpretation
valid. Follow the etymolog below
ie appropriation of the names of the gods through the Albanian language.
Rhea.
Zeus' mother was Rhea, which derives from the Albanian word "
re
”, And means cloud. What can give birth
the cloud, if not the storm, lightning and thunder? So the mighty voice of the cloud sky
them from the Universe, the
voice = zë or za, hence the Ze (us) = (the Voice), in Albanian Zot (God).
Ze
us derives from the Albanian "za or ze" = voice. Thunder is the voice of God, it is
Ze
(us) = Ze
-
Za = the
Voice,
Zot
(the God) of the Albanians.
Athena
in albanian
Athin
at
: this name derives from the Albanian "e thena" = to say, in the sense of the Word, the Word
of God, hence the goddess of wisdom. Another Albanian etymology of
Athina
=
Ati
(father) +
n / A
(mother),
hence the protective goddess, Athina (father
-
mother) in this sense.
Kron
(bone), der
ive of the Albanian words Koh (time) +
r
ron (lively), or Ke + r
r
we (that
live) in the sense
than
hard (durable) to give a sense of the perpetuity of time.
Ouran
(bones) of the Greeks,
Vran
(bone) = sky, derived from Albanian
vran
= cloudy; that is to say the earth (Téa,
G
éa) produced the clouds, the cloudy,
vran
-
uran
, in the sense of Heaven. You should know that the Albanians
pronounce the "V" like "U" (or), and vice
-
versa, hence Vran = Uran (Ouran). By adding the particle "
os ”the Greeks made their Uran + os, Uranos, its
ns be able to explain the etymological meaning.
Thea
or
Gea,
earth, derives from Albanian
Dhè
= earth, hence the synonym tokë also maintains the root
of T'héa.
The T
(is), from Thét + is (Greek suffix), derives from Albanian
Det
= sea, registered Deti = the m
er.
The Albanian etymology results from it very clear, as in all the aforementioned names.
Themis
, goddess of justice, her name derives from the verb alb. te mys = I kill you, hence the Latin verb "timeo"
(I'm afraid) that we represent with a scale in the ma
in the left and a sword in the right hand.
It was the law of the heel, the justice of the time, which executed after having judged: eye for eye, tooth for tooth and blood
for blood.
Hermes
, was a god recognized as essentially Pelasgius. Hermès, derives from the Alban
ais
err
(darkness)
+
my s
(mus) or mes = to kill, in the sense, "I kill the darkness", hence Hermes the god who dispels the darkness.
Demeter,
(Dhimitris) goddess of agriculture, deriving from Albanian:
Dhè
(earth) +
metre
(mother), hence
Demeter = Mother Earth.
Demeter
was the fourth wife of Zeus. From their union was born
Kora,
goddess of
harvests, from the Albanian verb "korr" = to harvest from where
të korra
= harvest.
Ha
(bone)
(Chaos), derives from the Albanian Ha = to eat, devour, or from Hap, Hapsine = in the sense of openness, the
vid
e, the abyss, from where
Ha
(os) (Chaos), the void that devours everything, absolute disorder, etc.
Of
Ha
os, removing the Greek suffix os =
Ha
, was born Tartarus, called by the Greeks (
Ereb
us) = Erèbe, We
find the root of this word in
the
Albanian language,
err,
errsi
= darkness,
u err
, it's dark, hence
ferr
= dark hell.
Ghig
(as), was one of the most remarkable giants, born from the union of Heaven and Earth, of a stature
colossal, strong, proud, fierce. The Northern Albanians, still retain at no
s days the name of
Gheg.
They
still have a remnant of the high stature of the giant Ghig (without the Greek suffix "as") which points them out
among the other inhabitants of Albania.
Atlas,
derived from Albanian words
At
(father) +
the ace
(lasht) = old hence At i lasht =
AT
tlas
= old father.
Aphrodhit
(is), derived from Albanian words
afer
(close) +
said
(day) hence in Albanian
Aferdita
(close to
day), the name they gave to the morning star, the planet Venue,
Aphrodhit
(is), goddess of beauty and
love.
Atlas
,
At + weary
in Albanian,
Aphrodhitis
,
Afro
-
dhitis
At (father) + las (old)
from Albanian Afer

from where
Atlas
= Old father

Aferdita
(the planet Venus)

*IT APPEARS, DR. MICHIEL DE VAAN, HAS NOT DONE HIS HOME WORK REGARDING THE ORIGINS OF ALBANIANS AND THE ALBANIAN LANGUAGE. IT IS NOT TRUE THAT ALBANIANS HAVE CHANGED THEIR LANGUAGE SEVERAL TIMES DURING THE LAST MILLENIA. THIS IS A HISTORICAL AND LINGUISTIC LIE. THE ALBANIAN LANGUAGE HAS NOT CHANGED IN ITS CORE FOR 10 THOUSAND YEARS, BUT OF COURSE HAS EVOLVED FROM AN OLD ALBANIAN TO A MODERN ALBANIAN. IT IS NOT TRUE AT ALL THAT ALBANIAN LANGUAGE HAS BORROWED A LOT OF LOANWORDS FROM LATIN, GREEK OR TURKISH. THE OPPOSITE IS TRUE. LATIN LANGUAGE (WHICH IS A NON-ETHNIC LAB CREATED LANGUAGE), AS WELL 'GREEK' (WHICH IS A NON-ETHNIC LAB CREATED LANGUAGE) AND TURKISH LANGUAGE HAVE BORROWED A LOT OF LOADWORDS FROM ANCIENT ALBANIAN AS WELL THE MODERN ALBANIAN. READ BELOW MR. DE VAAN, TO LEARN A BIT MORE IN DEPTH ABOUT ALBANIANS AND THE ALBANIAN LANGUAGE.*
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*THERE WERE NO "GREEKS" IN ANCIENT TIMES, IT'S ALL A SCAM FROM CON AND PLANTED "HISTORIANS" - THERE WERE ANCIENT ILLYRIAN AND PELASGIAN KINGDOMS/CONFEDERATIONS IN ANCIENT TIMES, FALSELY PRESENTED AS "GREEK" BY CON AND PLANTED HISTORIANS*
The so-called “Greece” is a made-up and fake country - made out of ethnic cleansing, racism, holocaust and ethnocide against Albanians (Arvanites and Chams) of Lower Albania.
All (100%) leading and senior commanders of the 1821 revolution in the Lower Albania (called unjustly “Greece” today - a name without any factual and historical meaning), where Albanians (Chams and Arberors/Arvanites).
Up until 1832, all that region (called “Greece” today) spoke only Albanian.
Out of 100% of the people living there in that region up until 1832, about 92-95% were Albanians (Arvanites and Chams), the rest were minorities.
Albanians are the descendants of Pelasgians and Illyrians (since 10,000 years and more ago).
Alexander the Great -was a Pelasgian King of Illyrian/Pelasgian Confederation of Macedonia, falsely presented as "Greek" by con and "planted" historians.
The Trojan War - was a war between Pelasgians and Illyrians - both ancient Albanian kingdoms/confederations, falsely represented as “Greek” by con and planted “historians”.
Homer's "Iliad and Odyssey" epic poems are Pelasgian era poems - falsely represented as "Greek" by con and planted "historians".
The Thermopylae Battle - was a battle between Pelasgian army (Sparta - a Pelasgian city) and Persian army, falsely represented as "Greek" battle against Persians by con and planted "historians".
The Koine/”Greek” language (a made-up religious language of Roman Empire times - same as Latin language was a religious language for the western part of the Roman Empire), was forced onto Albanians of that region (Arvanites and Chams) after 1832, through ethnic cleansing, holocaust and ethnocide by European powers (through racist Prince Otto of Germany), Russian Empire of that time, and the dangerous anti-Christian sect/cult called “Anadolli Orthodox Church”.
There is no such thing as “Greece”.
Greece is a scam country, artificially created by 1832, from the mafia type collusion of corrupt European powers of that time who brought Prince Otto of Germany to power in that region, Russian Empire of that time, and the dangerous anti-Christian sect/cult of so-called Anadolli Orthodox Church (expelled by Turks from Anatolia of that time, 1832, together with its followers of "Greek religious rite").
This country so-called “Greece”, has gone entirely bankrupt and belly-up five times from 1832 through 2018, has changed the “official language” of the country two times, and has changed the national flag three times from 1832 through 2019.
The latest and current national flag of this “Greece” being a blue-color replica of the East India Company flag (the British company who ruled and controlled all trade to and from India during the British rule in India).
This is enough to tell all, who this made-up country really is - a country with no real and true national identity, a zombie country.
If it was not for the free money from Germany, Russian Empire and European powers of that time (1832) and European Union now being poured every year to this “Greece” since 1832 through present, this kind of country would cease to exist tomorrow. And the big joke is, that this “Greece” is in a state of war with Albania today.
This “Greece” has officially declared war against Albania since October 1940 - through the Law of the Declaration of War against Albania, approved by the “Greek” parliament and the foreign powers’ installed King for “Greece” on October 1940.
Freedom and full human and national rights to 9 million Albanians of Lower Albania (called unjustly “Greece” today).
Freedom to Albanians of Lower Albania (called unjustly “Greece” today). Albanian should be the official language of the Lower Albania, and the country should be officially called and internationally recognized as Lower Albania.

Michiel, check the translation of the world "familia" from latin, it doesn't correspond to "femije" in albanian. "familia" in latin means "family+other meanings like servants.

Latin exists in the vocabulary of several languages, not just the ancestor languages of Albanian (languages from which Albanian derived). So, I don't see your point. Albanians are a young ethnic group, and there is nothing to be ashamed.
in every language there are some similarities but Albanian language is an unique language as is greek language
@@legioromanaxvii7644 Very unlikely.
Yes, Albanian is a unique language. I moved to Sweden and speak 4 languages good: Albanian, Serbian/Croatian, Swedish, English, plus quite a bit German and French, and little Italian as well.
From Swedish I understand Danish and Norvegian, but find many similarities between Swedish and - English and German, but even Dutch. I understand Dutch words just from Swedish.
I find similarities between French and Italian - with English which seem to have a lot of Latin words although it´s counted as a Germanic language. And I understand a lot of Polish even Russian words from Serbian/Croatian.
But I find Albanian unique. Similarities in words between Albanian and French are more than between Albanian and Italian. Words like: "dog" - chien (French) and qen (Albanian), "month" - mois (French pronounced mua) and muaj (Albanian also pronounced muaj), "me" - moi (French pronounced mua) and mua (Albanian pronounced mua), "must/have to" - dois (French pronounced dua), which in Albanian "dua" meaning changes into "want". "Green" - vert in French in Albanian is "gjelbër,", but in spoken Gheg Albanian, green is called "verdh" almoust as French "vert"...
However, despite of the similarities of the words; the construction of the language, the grammar, the words which are distinct or which bend and the melodies is what makes languages differ most...

The way you explain Looks like you wanna go home soon as possible.
If u wanna do something, do it right or let it be.
Albanians are the only surviving descendants of the Illyrians in the Balkans. Albanian has a word of its original Indo-European lexicon. Start from the core of Albanian to create Illyrian. Your study was very poor.
Actually Albanians moved to Greece before Ottoman invasion. "Arvanites in Greece originate from Albanian settlers who moved south from areas in what is today southern Albania during the Middle Ages. These Albanian movements into Greece are recorded for the first time in the late 13th and early 14th century. The reasons for this migration are not entirely clear and may be manifold. In many instances the Albanians were invited by the Byzantine and Latin rulers of the time. They were employed to re-settle areas that had been largely depopulated through wars, epidemics, and other reasons, and they were employed as soldiers".
Greek blood is poisoned 🙍🏿♂️🇬🇷
Big surprise, languages evolve when exposed to new rulers and migrations!!!!! Does it come as a surprise that Albanian absorbed words from Latin and Turkish, after centuries of occupations? The question was "where does Albanian come from", the lecturer skims right through the answer. Instead of saying that there's no clear ancestor to the Albanian language, why didn't he show pros and cons to the 3 predecessors? There are clear similarities between the fragments of Illyrian and Ancient Greek to Albanian. Why didn't he dispute those, to the least? I'm sorry, but this presentation was shallow and not so informative.
***** you use words such as related and thus, but improperly. I can link you to pages and pages of Illyrian words which are perfectly understood in Albanian but not in modern Greek.
+TheusZeusDeus You say "they may have Illyrian DNA, they live in the same region, their language might be traceable to Illyrian, but that doesn't mean they're their descendants!"
You could have had a point if this were only a language debate. That's only proof of the hegemony of the Roman Empire. About smelling coffee, if it sounds like a coffee maker, it smells like coffee, it tastes like coffee, it looks like coffee, it probably is coffee. Same with Albanians and Illyrians. Austrians or the British and French had no advantage making "propaganda" as you call it. The Albanian neighbors who want to eat up Albanian lands do. Where lies the true bias?
Nobody is saying that cultures do not evolve, and neither that Albanians are the only descendants [by DNA, Albanians are Illyrians for over 40% of their most isolated groups - this DNA is shared by Kosovo, Bosnia, Albania, and minorities in Greece and Macedonia]. You cannot deny or undermine the origin of Albanians.
In the Balkans especially, between the Roman, Bizantine, and Ottoman Empire that united the region for two millennia, EVERY culture and population mingled with little restrictions. That is why defining borders in the Balkans is so difficult.
Nationalist sentiments arose along with independence movements against monarchies across Europe, and with the weakening of the Ottoman Empire, Greece (with incalculable help from Albanian leaders) gained independence, later joined by the Slavs. Albanians were the last to gain independence partially for economic reasons, but also because nationalism wasn't part of the culture until much later.
The reason to focus on the mountaineers is because they remained the most isolated of all. They're considered backwards even by Albanians. Albania has no maritime culture? For a population living with highest densities on the coast? You know so little of this nation.
Or are you among the conspiracy theorists believing Albanians were "imported" from the East, because a name written on a map is more important than a plethora of evidence telling you otherwise?
Stop denying the existence and heritage of all people, in the Balkans or elsewhere.
***** I see that you're apt with rhetorical tricks, but your claims are just as unsubstantiated as you claim mine to be. So don't waste my time, unless you back up your statements with reliable sources.
***** This isn't a matter of opinions, I am looking for evidence that will lead me to the truth. If it turns out that Albanians aren't Illyrians, so be it, as long as the research isn't biased, and it isn't used to legitimize occupation claims, or to insult one side or the other.
I work on a different field, so I'm genuinely asking for reliable sources on history, linguistics, or genetics. So wherever you found your information, please share, because my readings up till now had me convinced that Albanians were Illyrians.
From a history course I took on the Middle East, the Ottoman Empire's military was made up of foreigners, little children bought from poor families in the central balkans, who then returned to their motherland after retirement, often with Anatolian wives and children. Before that, asiatic hoardes ravaged the country and raped women. I thought this explained the (at times) darker skin tones. Islamization followed due to the heavy taxation imposed on the non-Muslims. "There were there's the sword, there lies religion", goes an Albanian saying.
For the height, it is not yet fair to make the comparison. North Koreans are some say 3 inches shorter than South Koreans, due to malnutrition caused by a savage communism. Lord Byron commented on the beauty and height of Albanian people in the late 18th century.
Insisting on the lack of Illyrian maritime words, while claiming that all Balkans were hellenified... that's how globalization works. Italian dialects have been disappearing after unification in the late 19th century. The Balkans were unified under the Bizantine empire for an entire millennium. The official language shifted from Latin to Greek (even though they all called themselves Latin, and acquired national pride only during the 18/19th century with the advent of neoclassicism in the west). Don't you think that's long enough to have any Illyrian native words replaced by the much more frequent Greek words, due to the close trading nets?
In my language, which is Italian, in my lifetime alone we've seen a significant Anglicization of our terms, even where we used to have the Italian version. What could a millennium do?
And the oldest Albanian text dates to the 11th century, a manuscript by Theodore of Shkodra, recently discovered in the Vatican.

I said the first book in Albanian was written in 1555, and if you don't believe me I can read it to you because it's clear and intelligible Albanian
Also the first record of our existence was in 150 BC, described as Albanoi living in the adriatic coast north of greece. You can dispute whatever you want, but those are written facts. What happened after is a different story.
an interesting coincidence: Albanian "mirupafshim" (good bye!) = "mir - upavshim!" (=peace to the fallen!)- why is that?
peace is paqe, and goodbye is lamtumirë.
The only mad people here are those that claim Homer and Alexander the Great were Albanians and spoke Albanian.
Konstantinos K They didn't speak albanian that is sure. I don't know of which nationality was Homer, but he had no greek descendants the greek language was a second language to him. Just like Alexander the Great he learned greek his mother language was Not greek that's sure he learned it from Aristotle. Back than Epirus was considered a unit of barbarian tribes they spoke an unknown language to hellenes, and greeks used to fight them. Alexander's mother was epirotan(in this case not greek) and his father was macedonian not a slav! But the fact is that the greek Macedonia was created after Alexander's death and not before. So that's why we albanians think that Alexander the Great was half Illyrian(albanian) and half old macedonian(not greek-not slav)
Albanians are an aryan race... They've been in that same area for thousands of years. Only rece to not mix with others! Deal with it

@@garyyakamoto2648
but the only source you chew is the false document of "De administrando imperio"
and says the following
"According to the" List of Nations "attributed to the Byzantine emperor Constantine Porphyrogenitus," Serbs immigrated to the Balkans during the reign of Emperor Heraclius (610-641)"
so before that there was not a single Serb anywhere in the Balkans.
But we have Serbian tribes who started an uprising the Peloponnese in the year 587, so several decades before the Serbs immigrated to the balkans, Serbs were already living in today's southern Greece.
the story of the immigration of Serbs to the Balkans is a simply lie, and only since the Berlin Congress of 1878 until today that story exists, but before the Berlin Congress, Serbs were known as natives of the Balkans, and that names such as Illyrians Thracians, Dacians, Dardanians Paeonians Macedonians and so on were only different names for the Serbian people.
The first dictionary of the Serbian-German language, published in Vienna in 1853, dedicated to Prince Mihailo Obrenović, is entitled Ilirischen und deutschen Sprache.
25 years before the falsification of Serbian history, Serbs were known as the natives of the Balkans, as Illyrians.
The father of German philology and German studies, Jakob Grimm, he wrote in 1815: "Serbs are more correctly called what is otherwise called Illyrians, the Slavic national branch."
63 years before the falsification of Serbian history.
but there is a lot of evidence and quotes that non-Serbs said about the autochthony of Serbs in the Balkans.
so we have John Kinamos from the 12th century and who says.
"the Serbs, who are as a people Dalmatians, built a fortress of Ras"
The present-day historiography is false, because the Westerners also created "Ancient Greece", so that the Shiptars (Albanians) are of Illyrian origin.
but I have nothing more to tell you, believe in the lie, I do not believe in the story of how the Serbs immigrated, in the seventh century, that is nonsense, Serbs (Slavs) are the greatest in Europe, and both Greek and Latin cultures were created on the basis of Serbian culture, because Serbs lived long before the Greeks in Greece, and on the Apennine Peninsula, because before Rome, Serbs lived for centuries in today's Italy, there were our Serbian tribe the Raseni (Etruscans), who gave language and script to stupid Latins, even when the Romans came to the Serbian territory (In Illyria) they could communicate with the Serbs without an interpreter, because the ancient Latins spoke a Serbian dialect, and in the work of Pliny the Elder you have a document mentioning 27 Illyrian names, of which about 20 exist today among Serbs. so that will tell a lot about who the Romans had a fight with.
I will not go any further, Serb haters believe in child story, anyone has the right to believe what he or she want, but if that story is the truth, thats another story.
have a nice day.

Romanian didn't borrow from Albanian! Those are words from substrata (Dacian)!
There was a population of Aromuns migrting towards Albania. This is how borrowed words became a part of Albanian. Also, a recent study has proven that words that exist in Romanian, previously thought to be borrowed from Slavic languages are in fact of Thracian origin existing in both Romanian (as Dacian, including North Thracian) and old Slavic (now including North East and SouthThracian).
This is a quasy sciense, as Thracian language as Romanian,Thracian, Ilirian , Dacian languages were not preserve, they do not exist.Romanians are not Thracians they came after 6AD maybe even 12AD. in 6AD was attack on TRacia from Avars Romanians are not Avars must be11- 12AD with the fall off Constantinopol in to hands off Latine.And the truth population were manly slaugter.Only Gypsie were left, they are truth Byzantinum.
+sonja Totic
"as Thracian language as Romanian,Thracian, Ilirian , Dacian languages were not preserve, they do not exist"
They DID exist! The language spoken by Gauls and Iberians, Celts etc., they don't exist anymore too just like Thracian, Illyrian and Dacian . So what's your point?
Romanian language does exist! It is the language that we, Romanians, speak today! How can you say that Romanian language was not preserved and doesn't exist?!
"Romanians are not Thracians "
Romanian people is the result of a process of ethnogenesis like all European peoples! Dacians were conquered by the Roman Empire in 106 AD, then Dacia was heavily colonized with Roman colonists from the whole Roman Empire ("ex toto orbe romano", say the ancient sources) and in time they created a new ethnicity. Later, in Dacia arrived the Slavs, they stayed here for a little while and then the majority (but not all of them) crossed the Danube. As a result, the Balkans were Slavicized (the majority of Latinized Thracians were assimilated by Slavs) and the Slavs who remained North of the Danube (in Dacia) have been assimilated by early Romanians.
So the main components of our ethnicity are: Dacians, Roman colonists (from the whole Roman Empire, not only from Italy) and Slavs (with some small additions, some migratory tribes which settled in Dacia)
The same process of ethnogenesis happened in France (French people = Gauls + Roman colonists + German tribes), Spain, Portugal (Iberians, Celts + Roman colonists + Germans), in Balkans (Thracians + Romans + Slavs [+ Bulgars in the case of Bulgarians] ) etc
+sonja Totic
"Romanians are not Thracians they came after 6AD maybe even 12AD."
Where did we come from in your opinion? Can you provide us evidence for your statement? Documents, primary sources? Can you show us evidence? Show us documents, primary sources that say Romanians migrated from somewhere (where from?)
And what happened with Dacians who inhabited Dacia if you say we are not Thracians?
"must be11- 12AD with the fall off Constantinopol in to hands off Latine"
That happened in the 13th century:

"In 1322 a Franciscan monk named Simon Simeonis described people in likeness to the "atsingani" living in Crete and in 1350 Ludolf von Sudheim mentioned a similar people with a unique language whom he called Mandapolos [...]
Around 1360, a fiefdom (called the Feudum Acinganorum) was established in Corfu."
So they are first recorded in Europe in the 14th century.
History you idiot, you are Vlahs.
Potete dire quello ché volete di Albania....ma non siete mai in grado di sapere più cose di un studioso ....Albania è un paese povero e piccolo come tanti altri paesi piccoli e poveri scomparsi dalla storia.....Albania è la prima in Europa come ordine alfabetico.. è anche prima dove partono le storie di Europa.....voglio chiarire una cosa ai nostri vicini Greci ...nel mondo ci sono più di 20 nomi Albania...anche in America c'è Albany ché non c'entra niente con Albania....Albania Caucaso ma stiamo scherzando...pellasgi sono ancora prima di Greci e Romani...la lingua Albanese è la più vecchia ....è la lingua dei pellasgi... è la lingua dei Etruschi....é la lingua dei ILLIRIA ...anche i Croati sono i discendenti di ILLIRIA ....Studiate bene la storia prima di parlare.
Peccato che i Croati hanno perso la lingua.
I think that the Albanians are mainly of Dardanian-Illyrian origins and the origin land is Northern Albania.
Albanian is a mixture of Illyrian-Greek-Latin-Turkish , only my opinion.
Well... This is not a matter of opinions and u got it wrong. Don't create opinions without informing urself
I heard this, but this scholar's conclusion cannot be accepted according to me; as far as I understood, the author has conduct his research only in one regional zone, and more precisely in the south-center Albania, somewhere in the area between Scampini river and the Berat/Permet area... In the middle age (XII sec. ca), this area was invaded by the Bulgarian empire which left buildings, traditions, and some influence in the regional dialects and costumes. This just to point out that the conclusions of the author cannot be extend to the whole Albanian speaking territories
Greeks were called Graeci only after the Ionnian settlent oi the area. Ionninas were semitic/hebrew.
Dorians were Illyrian tribes that dwelt in Sparta. Leonidas were a Dorian living in Sparta.
Illyrians and Epiroans were considered by Greeks as barbarous tribes. Whatever was barbarus was not Greek.
Greece idnetity is based on a Setmitc ideology called Orthodoxy. Greece is a mixture of ethnicites (Arbanites, Vlahs, Slavs, Egyptians, Turks)
u have so much idea maybe 0,00 % or ( - 0,00 % )

pellazg illirians prod albanian...
Arber has been called Albania in the times of Skanderbeg.They spoke Albanian.500-600 years ago!Those who traveled from albania thoe times now days are all around the globe as Tribes,they speek the Skanderbeg's language,and only we can understand them even the language has changes a lot.The language that ilyrians has spoken is close to the language of Arberia.Pelazgic language its been closer to Ilyrian language.Here comes that old greek language has been pelazgic,which its successor is Albanian.
Ivan Petrushin, Shqip aka Albanian is Caucasus language. They share stricking similarties with Armenians language. Armen is very common name among Shqiptaret.Shqiptaret had come to Balkan since Turkish time. Turks in Thurky are the mixture of Caucasus, Near East and Midle East people regarding African mutant gene of origin African E3b1a-V13 and Midle East J2 and J1 haplogroups that carry Sgqiptaret aka Albanians and Turks in Turkey who are muslimised people of the area. They are the same as North Africans, Asia Minor and Midle East people. They are not from Balkan. They were deported as merchenisers of Byzantinians, Turks till today Americans. What is the difference from before till today.??????? They are inslaved to serve the current power US.
I don't know much about Albanians, but I do know for certain, that Homer did not write anything in Albanian :) That is of course if you are referring to the same Homer - the putative author of Ιλιάδα and Ὀδύσσεια and not to some other Homer who wrote a "book odiseo"
As I am not an expert on Alexander I will not venture to contradict you there. You might be right
I just remember a tomb of brother and mother of Skenderbeg in H ilandar.. enjoy your origin albanians :)
luda glava yeah and how its called ? "arbanaski pirg", dumbass which means albanian tower
They bought the place there for 60 golds! It is named as Albanian Tower and on the tomb of Gjon Kastrioti is written "...the Duke of Yllirians..! Read better and try again...
@@yotuberrednblack4888 and whom are those Illyrians if in Austria Habzburg state Illyrian was Serbian?! I am really not nationalist I want to know thruth according to historical facts, nothing else
Serbs are Illyrians? Is this a serious idea? Hahaha! But, serbs came in the 6th Century to Balkans... Illyrians were here much more before - centuries B.C, come on ppl!
There is only one possibility and only one explanation... "when slavs came to Balkans and settled... maybe they mixed with some tribes in the area... this is a bit hard to believe (to be love at first sight hahaha). So the might be a small percetage of Illyrian descendants...

I thought, the turkish word for soldier is "asker" and not "ushtar". And you say "shqipton" and not "shqipon".
The history of language is based on opinions. The evidence says completely the opposite: There were only Albanians from the place called Greece today to the place called Slovenia today, from the place called Albania today to to place called Turkey today. Their language is much more complicated the linguists think it is. They simply do not know it.

Who is this clown 🤡 talking about ALBANIAN lol
Why are Albanians brainwashed into believing all these nationalist myths about their origins, that they are "Illyrians"? That theory is outdated and debunked by actual historians. The greatest mystery is why are Albanians nationalist in the first place, when they lived in tribes and were, and still are, very divided as a people. In fact, when all the nations of the Balkans were fighting for their independence, Albanians were the only ones who wanted to remain a part of the Ottoman Empire and staid with the Ottomans until the bitter end.
Albanians can confirm that they are Descendants of the ancient Greeks and Genetics would confirm that. With the Ottomans, the Albanians returned their Territory and gain politically and ethnically Power. What Arnauts (Albanians) are for Turks, are the Arvanites (Albanians) for the Greeks, menas significant, important and indispensable
Megas Archon Alexandros Vlahos I can explain you why The Albanians in 1870-1900 didn't want to divide from the ottoman empire, simple because they knew just as it happened next their territories would have been conquested by greeks and slavs...Albanians were the only people to have political power in the Ottoman empire there were 23 prime ministers and more than 20 vezirs including a Muhammed Pasha in Egypt. All greeks and slavs had no abilities in politics as requested by the ottomans...so why would albanians like that time to loose their powers and let greeks and slavs conquest their territories they prefered do stay with Ottoman empire till the independence in 28 November of 1912
You are brainwashed . The history is writen. You read only things thate make you happy.
Megas Archon Alexandros Vlahos fuck off
Prick
Outdated by What historian Exactly? Its legit 1 of 2 most supported theory Among with the daco thracian one Hahah.
put it shortly: Albanians are descendants of partly romanized Paleo-Balkanic tribes of antiquity. We have our own language tree, 60% Roman loanwords from the Roman conquest of the Balkans, and our name is derived from the Illyrian ‘Albani’ tribe, mentioned by Ptolemy in Central and North Albania in 150AD. Albanian and Romanian share multiple hundred common words, some of them are pre-Roman old-Balkanic. There has never been any recorded migration of Albanians whatsoever, we just ‘appear’ in the North Albanian, hardly accessible mountains in 1043 as the ‘Albanoi’ tribe mentioned by Ptolemy nearly 1000 years prior. In our own language, we called ourselves ‘Arberësh’ at that point, and our country ‘Arbëria’, which are thought to be connected with the latin/greek name ‘Albani’.
There are another 50 points I could list about the two Albanian dialects having formed before the Slavic migration into the Balkans near the Shkumbin river, and the Illyrian tribal names that are provingly connected to Albanian words (Dardani, Dalmati, Taulanti etc.). There are a lot of arguments regarding Albanian origin.
Now tell me: what are the two major options of Albanian origin? Exactly: Illyrian, or Daco-Thracian. There are no other people groups that lived in the ancient Balkans (beside Hellenics obviously). Only these two. That’s why all modern scholars working on Albanian origin argue wether Albanians are Illyrian or Dacian. There is not enough evidence about either of these two languages to fully say which is right.
All we know is that, due to geographical reasons, the Albanian-Illyrian tribal names, the Albanian connection to the Messapic-Illyrian dialect of Apulia and the name of Albania being of Illyrian origin, Albanians are considered as the likely remnants of Illyrian mountain tribes by mainstream historians.
If you Wanna compare Croats (or other slavs) with Romans, its wrong, for one reason: Croats speak a Slavic language, while Albanians have their independent language that is the last survivor of a language family which is mostly extinct. And there are two language families in the ancient Balkans that are extinct today; Illyrian and Dacian-Thracian. No wonder scholars consider Albanian the survivor of one of these two.

Romanian preserved Dacian words with affricates. Did not borrow words from Dardanian or Proto-Albanian. If Bardylis (Βάρδυλις) is Proto-Albanian, then the adjective i bardhë is older than a few centuries, when the supposedly older affricates (ʦ, ʣ) became fricative (dh, th). And Dacian was a major language family north of the Balkan mountains, that became Proto-Romanian. We did not borrow words from Albanian because that would have ment that Proto-Albanians were our overlords or we lived together. That's not the case, and that common lexicon coming from before the Roman invasions is widespread, to the borders of Galicia and even north of the Carpathians in what today is Ukraine, southern Poland (Gorali) and even to Moravia in the Middle Ages.
We hardly met Albanians in the Western Balkans through some pastoral emigrants from the Danube (south-east Hungary&north of today's Serbia). Mostly, southern dialects speaking a form of Aromanian (Fărșeroți aka Rămăni) had a prolonged contact with Albanians.
Bravo Shkrlzen, the alien part was funny because I understand why you said it. My knowledge is too much to type in a comment. I've studied ethnology for many years and am of both Gheg and Tosk. I speak both dialects and understand the language and history better than this professor. I can answer a lot of questions. So just message me. Because you're missing a lot of information.
Okay, of course you have the questions from Walt Disney Books? A question which booklet is it exactly? I can’t remember.
