I was born in Kosovo. I moved to Sweden as a child. I'm lucky that we spoke albanian at home with my parents. With my siblings we talked both albanian and swedish. Sometimes we mix it, and that's terrible. The challenge will be to teach the generations that come after us to talk albanian. It's a very beautiful language and should never be forgotten. I choose to write this comment in english so more people can understand it. Rrnoftë populli shqiptarë dhe gjuha shqipe 👑💪🇦🇱.
This is crazy, Albanian history has now been amazing me ,to know that most of the oldest Albanian people living in Greece, Italy, Turkey, for 600 to 700 years still remember the beautiful Albanian language and dialects.
They,ve been living there for much longer than that… history just keeps repeating. Italians have confirmed that at least 21 of their emperors are of Illyrian origin. Doric invasions, where did they come from? And by the way, “Albani” or “Arboreschi” was coined by the Romans, and it’s Latin for Dorian/Druid.
Albanians can't explain what happened to all Greeks & Romans who have been living in now country Albania lands from BC era . They can't explain how albanians couldn't scratch a single word for thousands years while they claim they are ancients, they can't explain why Albanian language has 0 native nautical vocabulary but claim illyrians (Romans documents illyrians piracy on Roman trade ships)ancestry . Albanians always spread Albanian propaganda "everyone is Albanian, everything is Albanian, dinosaurs 🦖 were albanians, earth is Albanian, Egyptians were albanians, "etc

Martin you're doing a tremendous job with the comparing of various Albanian dialects. I live in Greece and I know the Arvanitic dialect pretty well but I understand even some linguistic characteristics of Arberesh. It would be really interesting if I make it to participate on a conversation with both an Arvanitis and an Arberesh. Congratulations on your work anyways.
Oh my god guys I’m 31 years old and this video really moved me welcome to your roots we missed you so much and we feel sorry for everything that had happened!!
There's always been a presence of Albanian speakers since antiquity in what is called Greece. Even Herodotus says that Iliryan/Epirotes tribes lived all the way to the Ambracian Gulf or Arta today. So, it was a "migration" within their own Illyrian Peninsula.
@@dios1ish868 Well we have concrete evidence in records of Albanian migrations (groups of thousands at time) descending towards Athens and the Peloponnese around the 12th century upon the request of Catalonian/French/Venetian rulers to act as mercenaries in abandoned fortifications along the seaside. After hundreds of years, this population became a distinct component to the overall identity of the region. As to the ancient origins of Albanians, it's clear that there is an ancient Greek component, as well as Thracian and Dardanian elements. The Illyrian claim is more tricky as the area attributed to Illyria is vast, I think it's better to frame such discussions with specific Illyrian tribes that Albanians could have plausibly descended from. And from what we know from sources, Illyrian tribes did not view themselves as a collective and maintained diverse practices of worship.
@@kuashiku. I didn't mention so much the migration towards Peloponesi and Athens. I was speaking mostly about the Albanians that lived all the way to Arta. One of the most prominent Illyro/Epirote tribes that is known since antiquity are the Thesprotians or the Cams, from which the orthodox Cams still live there.
@@dios1ish868 The Chams arent an ancient Epirote tribe,and Epirotans are clearly distinguished from their neighbouring Illyrian tribes in the ancient sources.As far as Epirus Illyrians only raided and didnt settle permanenlty
I dont think they didn't consider arvanitika as a language at all because no one counts mothertongue as known language but only foreign languages. They laughted because they understood the ironi of not counting the mothertongue and because their subconscious knew.

@4:37 Fan Noli served as Prime Minister and regent of Albania for a short while, but he was Archbishop, Metropolitan and founder of the Albanian Orthodox Church and the Albanian Orthodox Archdiocese in America.. Also, they don't have to be three "theories" because different groups of people moved into that area for different purposes.. It is well known and documented that the Byzantine Emperor Kantakuzenes moved a group of Albanians there from the North Albania to re-populate an area hit by wars and epidemics, people able also to defend it from imminent Ottoman attacks. Another group there, I have read, connect themselves with builders from Kolonja, Albania area that were brought to build the Selimiye Mosque, of the great architect Sinan (born Joseph) they settled in Zaloufi, still albanophone - when you say "shqiptarke" that's typical for Kolonja/Korça 😊

WOW, that is fabulous! You are right, because Arvanites and Arberesh are before there was an Albanian state. Plus the religious differences. You have no idea how much you are appreciated by Albanians.
Dimitris - is there any way to purchase a copy of the Vespers of Love which you translated into Arvanitika? I would LOVE to have a copy and read it in church.
Welldone my brother I live in uk london next to me live on big fa mily from alexandropuli I am from albania PERMETI NEXT TO KONICA RESPECT FOR BOTH OF YOU
we started calling our selves skypetar during the nationalism that was spreading through europe,the word skypetar itself comes from the word shqipetoj or skiptoj like it used to be called before the (q) voice was added in the Albanian languege,which means to understand - to speak clearly among the Albanians not only in mainland albania but other parts too ,the arvanitas by that point had already been assimilated for the most part
Ndoshta edhe nga "vendi i shqiponjave" - une mendoj se edhe fjala qe nuk na pelqen shume "arnaut" qe na therrasin turqit ka lidhje me gjermanet e mesjetes "arnau" eshte shqiponje. Emri Arnold/Arnauld/Arnault (sundues) vjen nga "Arnau".
The same way an Arber from Greece is confused about the term Shqiptar, I also used to be confused until I come to realize that being Shqiptar does not have to do with ethnicity. Shqiptaria is an ideology, it is not an ethnicity. Albanians never stopped being Arber. My great grandfather was an Arber, why did i stop being an Arber and got transformed into Shqiptar? That is because Shqiptaria is an ideology. It came as an idea from the Arbers of Italy during Albanian Renaissance. Shqiptaria was a philosophy that was born at the times when a nation divided between Abrahamic religions needed a common element. Arbers of different religion (orthodox, catholic, or muslims) had to have a common belief in order to distinguish themselves from other nations. Turkey used islam as pillar of its foundation, other Balkan countries used orthodoxy and catholicism as pillars of their countries foundations. Albanians invented the notion of Shqiptaria, which was an idea of including all religions and accept each other differences in the name of Arberia; which later on become to be known as Shqiptaria. So in other words, i am an still Arber that believes in the philosophy Shqiptaria. Being a shqiptar is like a lifestyle, is like choosing to be a stoic, or a buddhist, or practitioner of a certain religion. The phisolphy of Shqiptaria includes many elements in itself, one of them is the heritage of Arberia which includes the language, traditions, history, common background and many more. Hope this help:) keep up with the good work!
You are mistaken. Albanians started calling themselves Shqipetare instead of Arbereshe long before nationalism/Albanian Renaissance. It was a natural evolution of the ethnonym over time. We have plenty of evidence of Albanians calling themselves Shqipetare before this. Shqiptare replaced Arbereshe in the late 17th/early 18th century. This is why the man in this video, from Thrace, says his people call themselves Shqipetare in their dialect of Albanian. They were no where near where Albanian nationalism was happening. They didn't suddenly change their ehtnonym.
"The name Arbën/Arbër is an ancient name of a nation and people and is even older than the names shqip, shqiptar, Shqipëri, and Shqipni, which dominate today. In Albania, this name is alive from the South to the North. Regarding the expansion of the national name, it can be said that this name had an expansion of geographical use in the 14th century. It is thought that this name was expanded all over the country since the Skenderbeu era, by evolving from a tribe or province’s name to a national name of the country. This name was also taken by those who were ousted to Greece and Italy in the 14th and 15th century, who did not recognize the name shqiptar, Shqipni/Shqipëri, etc., which is seen to be younger and born or generalized in Albania after their displacement. [4, P.65]" "The words Shqipëri and Shqiptar are attested from 14th century onward, but it was only at the end of 17th and beginning of the early 18th centuries that the placename Shqipëria and the ethnic demonym Shqiptarë gradually replaced Arbëria and Arbëreshë amongst Albanian speakers in the Balkans."
@@roolentodd395 I am not sure to what evidences you are referring to, but the first historian that recorded Albanian history in Albanian language is Marin Barleti, and in all of his writings Albanians are either called as Arbers, Macedoninas, or Epirotans. Shqiperia was not invented as an idea at middle ages, and Barleti does not mentioned it in none of his books.
@@TheAldo20011 You can speculate and come up with many other theories about the origin of the term "Shqiptar", the point is that the reason why Shqiptaria was embraced as an idea it was because it was used as a philosophy of unification. People did not start to call themselves shqiptar just because they wanted it and thought it was cool to do so. It was through Albanian Renaissance that writers in Arbersh communities in Italy, and other colonies at other countries in Balkans started to come together and develop the ideology of Shqiptaria. Albanian Renaissance started to develop at those times when speaking Albanian was considered as heresy in Orthodox church and haram in the High Porte. That was the time when the underground newspapers and writings started to use the term Shiptaria alongside with the one of Arberia. Shqiptaria was a term that was embraced out of necessity in order to unify a nation divided by different Abrahamic believes. I mentioned in the comment above, that Marin Barleti never used the term Shqiptaria in none of his writings and that is an indicator to me that Shqiptaria was not a know name during middle ages. Even if it was around as a term, it must have been of small significance, because if it would have been important, Barleti would have mentioned it at least once. I still believe that Shqiptaria it is just an ideology, Albanians never stopped being Arber. Yes we are Arbers that believe in Shqiptaria, but people of different background can also become Shqiptar if they embrace its philosophy language and tradition. Bottom line Albanians ethnicity is Arber, mainstream ideology that they follow is Shqiptaria.
so, anyone can be Albanian if they follow the lifestyle? doesn’t that sound like any other ethnicity out there? ethnicities have been created as a result of shared experiences, customs, moral law, etc. the Albanian identity is a social construct just like any other culturally-bonded social group

.Have you read the gjon buzuku book?? He tell there that the languag is skipe ( in that time albanian dont have sh or q) because of 3 religions we needed smth to keep us together so the only way was our language who waa called shqip so we became from arber to shqiptar
Arberesh and Arvanites are called like this because when their immigration occured the today albanians were called "Arber" . That's the reason the why the Arberesh are called like that and Arvanites are called from Arber or Arven or Arvanon! I speak all 3 languages (Albanian ,Greek and Italian too..) and can make the connections. The letter b from Arber becomes v or "β"... so it becomes αρβανιτ... Μπραβο Δημητρη! Bravo Dhimitri
Please correct me if I am wrong, I don't think I heard even once the word Thracian (as written in the title) mentioned in the video! Curious to know if there is any connection between Arvanitika and Thracian? Cam and Arvanitika speak the same dialect. Albanian litterary version was enforced during communist time . The litterary Albanian was based in a region called Zagoria near Gjirokaster. Just to clarify, in litterary Albanian you say "gjysem" for half but, most Albanians especially mid anf north Albania say "gjymes." Respekt to both of you!

Dimitri is a speaker of Thracian Arvanitika, he discusses this in the video. It isn't about ancient Thracian.
@@Drgezimdautiindeed all the linguist says that albania is the oldest from the Indo-European languages. That's has nothing to do with Nationalist but with facts. Albanians didn't sprouted from nowere as you can see they are in the west of balkan with slavs all around them wich means that they were always there. Albanians are the only nation that their border has albanians greece have the arvanitas, italy the arberesh, Montenegro has albanians kosovo albanias even kosovo is bordering with albanians in serbia albanians north Macedonia albanians ,croatia they have albanians bosnia too. It's not about nationalism its about reality.
Albanians in Kosova we also call ourselves Shqiptar..that doesnt mean though that we moved to Kosova after the term 'Skipetar' took over from 'Arber'. It just means that we adopted to the new name like the rest of Albanians. Even here you will find people that try to separate themselves from Albania and out emphasis on our identity as Kosovare and even prefer using the ghegh dialects..but yeah we dont really take them that serious. Also it aint complicated that the Arvanitika guy said that we called our self Skiptar but Albanians that came from Albania we called Arvanitika..yeah you did as the other Greeks do.
@ARBERESH TV my friend i would suggest you that when you are trying to compare the albanian language with arberesh or arvanitika should include also the many dialects that albanian is spoken because you will find many more words that can not find in standart albanian
@ I have checked the other videos but sometimes the guys that you talk to some of them live outside albania for a long time and they speak mostly the standart albanian. anyway congratulations for such initiatives
Arvanites from northern Greece came later in in Greece than arvanites of southern Greece! That’s why they say shqiptar!! Arvanites of attiika region came earlier and don’t recognize the word shqiptar!
@@myhyrijexhafa6179 it is both.. there were later waves too, from the northern Gheg Albanians that are also documented because they were not just spontaneous. In many cases they were invited by the Byzantine rulers re-settle areas of today's Greece depopulated through wars, epidemics, and so were vulnerable to the ottoman occupation .. so they were chosen for their ability to fight and hold on to those territories and so they brought along their families and settled there. Some later movements were motivated to evade Islamization after the Ottoman conquest. I find it fascinating to hear Arvanites speak both Gheg and Tosk.. Many still have clearly typical North Albanian surnames to this day!
Unfortunately I don't understand Albanian or Arvanitika. i am arvanite and i live in germany. We are proud Orthodox Greeks. My ancestors come from the village of Neo Chemonio, near Orestiada. They came there about 100 years ago from the city of MEGA ZALOUFI. There they were expelled by the Turks Before that my ancestors came about 1500 from Gjirokastro in North Epirus. The sultan called them to build the mosque in Adrianoupoli.
Triste la storia degli albanesi. Nel medioevo. Albanesi venivano costretti cambiare la propria religione ortodossa catolica.islamisti turchi usavano albanesi di allora come schiavi.turchia per le atrocità compiute durante dominazione per 5 lunghi secoli non può essere mai amico del popolo meraviglioso albanese . 👍🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱👋🇮🇪
@@deborahpavia838 Deborah there are many misconceptions here. Albanians in the south were mostly affiliated with the Orthodox Church but in the North most were Catholics going as far back as the 10th century. The conversion to Islam was a gradual process with many including my ancestors adopting it in the 19th century.
yavri mou You can fel as a Piec of shit to Bastard if you are Arvanitas ask your Father or Mother why they still speak the Divine language so if you are Greek you are Gipsy ried if you can : Lord Byron about the modern Greek language 1809. Byron wrote only the tru reality that he was seeing .Under the directives of his kingdom,Byron helped the Greek indenpedency. The number of Greek population was wery low when Byrom visited Balkans. In the entire Balkan peninsula only 300,000 Greeks could be found that time.The real and true name of these people was Gypsy from ancient Time.The people of Balkan peninsula were calling the people or imigrants who arrived from Egypt in the short form as Gypsy. They were Dark and some were Black. The imigrants spoke the broken latin. In ancient time the latin language was the language of Romans and universal language that all countries were using for bilateral relatiion.They wealthy in order to be diffrent from the poor and the others started to use the latin language.Their servants started also to learn this language but they spoke the broken Latin. This broken Latin language later was known as a Greek language, and with the modification of this
@ yeah, the saint Vlash or Blaise is venerated in several other places in Albania, in both Orthodox and Catholic rites since he lived long before the schism, during the period of persecution of Christians.. But he was a bishop in Durres and was martyred there so this particular Shen Vlash village is very important especially for the Orthodox, with a Theology Seminary, monastery, church, etc., a pilgrimage site from all religious background people as they say healings and miracles were experienced there.. Fascinating place!
Btw I remember reading somewhere that Napflio was really close to becoming the capital of Greece but it didn’t because it was mainly full of Arvanites/Albanians. Can anyone confirm that?
@@TheLegendOfKroi that is what I heard too.. it was the first choice as capital city for Greece. Arvanitia is to this day the name of the most beautiful parts of the city of Nafplio on the seaside.
@@TheLegendOfKroi well if nafplio was full of arvanites what about Athens and the regions around?? 😂😂, the reasons that Nafplio didn't become the capital was that the foreign diplomats and king Otto himself wanted to see Athens as in the past again,in all her glory, anyway even today in Nafplio the most famous coast region is called ARVANITIA

We atribute tha fact that Arberesh where able to preserve their identity relatively better than the Arvanites in greece ,to the idea that italy didn’t oppress or forbid or excommunicate you as the Greek state and church did to Arvanites or other ethnicities for that matter… Can you please tell more or share some source links about what you said above ?
@@Lullubekatsas it’s true that there are still some ( not many though) Arvanites still singing and speaking their Arvanites languege , as long as thay are very clear to publicly express that they are not of Albanian culture , language. That “have been thought “ that their culture and language has nothing to do with Arberia-Albania-Arberesh… because that how the Greek state wants them to feel as an subgroup of Hellenic culture , nothing more … otherwise that have problems 😉

There's always been a presence of Albanian speakers since antiquity in what is called Greece. Even Herodotus says that Iliryan/Epirotes tribes lived all the way to the Ambracian Gulf or Arta today. So, it was a "migration" within their own Illyrian Peninsula.
@@dios1ish868
Well we have concrete evidence in records of Albanian migrations (groups of thousands at time) descending towards Athens and the Peloponnese around the 12th century upon the request of Catalonian/French/Venetian rulers to act as mercenaries in abandoned fortifications along the seaside. After hundreds of years, this population became a distinct component to the overall identity of the region. As to the ancient origins of Albanians, it's clear that there is an ancient Greek component, as well as Thracian and Dardanian elements. The Illyrian claim is more tricky as the area attributed to Illyria is vast, I think it's better to frame such discussions with specific Illyrian tribes that Albanians could have plausibly descended from. And from what we know from sources, Illyrian tribes did not view themselves as a collective and maintained diverse practices of worship.
@@kuashiku. I didn't mention so much the migration towards Peloponesi and Athens. I was speaking mostly about the Albanians that lived all the way to Arta. One of the most prominent Illyro/Epirote tribes that is known since antiquity are the Thesprotians or the Cams, from which the orthodox Cams still live there.
@@dios1ish868 The Chams arent an ancient Epirote tribe,and Epirotans are clearly distinguished from their neighbouring Illyrian tribes in the ancient sources.As far as Epirus Illyrians only raided and didnt settle permanenlty
I dont think they didn't consider arvanitika as a language at all because no one counts mothertongue as known language but only foreign languages. They laughted because they understood the ironi of not counting the mothertongue and because their subconscious knew.

@4:37 Fan Noli served as Prime Minister and regent of Albania for a short while, but he was Archbishop, Metropolitan and founder of the Albanian Orthodox Church and the Albanian Orthodox Archdiocese in America..
Also, they don't have to be three "theories" because different groups of people moved into that area for different purposes..
It is well known and documented that the Byzantine Emperor Kantakuzenes moved a group of Albanians there from the North Albania to re-populate an area hit by wars and epidemics, people able also to defend it from imminent Ottoman attacks.
Another group there, I have read, connect themselves with builders from Kolonja, Albania area that were brought to build the Selimiye Mosque, of the great architect Sinan (born Joseph) they settled in Zaloufi, still albanophone - when you say "shqiptarke" that's typical for Kolonja/Korça 😊

we started calling our selves skypetar during the nationalism that was spreading through europe,the word skypetar itself comes from the word shqipetoj or skiptoj like it used to be called before the (q) voice was added in the Albanian languege,which means to understand - to speak clearly among the Albanians not only in mainland albania but other parts too ,the arvanitas by that point had already been assimilated for the most part
Ndoshta edhe nga "vendi i shqiponjave" - une mendoj se edhe fjala qe nuk na pelqen shume "arnaut" qe na therrasin turqit ka lidhje me gjermanet e mesjetes "arnau" eshte shqiponje. Emri Arnold/Arnauld/Arnault (sundues) vjen nga "Arnau".
The same way an Arber from Greece is confused about the term Shqiptar, I also used to be confused until I come to realize that being Shqiptar does not have to do with ethnicity.
Shqiptaria is an ideology, it is not an ethnicity.
Albanians never stopped being Arber. My great grandfather was an Arber, why did i stop being an Arber and got transformed into Shqiptar?
That is because Shqiptaria is an ideology. It came as an idea from the Arbers of Italy during Albanian Renaissance.
Shqiptaria was a philosophy that was born at the times when a nation divided between Abrahamic religions needed a common element. Arbers of different religion (orthodox, catholic, or muslims) had to have a common belief in order to distinguish themselves from other nations.
Turkey used islam as pillar of its foundation, other Balkan countries used orthodoxy and catholicism as pillars of their countries foundations.
Albanians invented the notion of Shqiptaria, which was an idea of including all religions and accept each other differences in the name of Arberia; which later on become to be known as Shqiptaria.
So in other words, i am an still Arber that believes in the philosophy Shqiptaria. Being a shqiptar is like a lifestyle, is like choosing to be a stoic, or a buddhist, or practitioner of a certain religion.
The phisolphy of Shqiptaria includes many elements in itself, one of them is the heritage of Arberia which includes the language, traditions, history, common background and many more.
Hope this help:) keep up with the good work!
You are mistaken. Albanians started calling themselves Shqipetare instead of Arbereshe long before nationalism/Albanian Renaissance. It was a natural evolution of the ethnonym over time. We have plenty of evidence of Albanians calling themselves Shqipetare before this. Shqiptare replaced Arbereshe in the late 17th/early 18th century.
This is why the man in this video, from Thrace, says his people call themselves Shqipetare in their dialect of Albanian. They were no where near where Albanian nationalism was happening. They didn't suddenly change their ehtnonym.
"The name Arbën/Arbër is an ancient name of a nation and people and is even older than the names shqip, shqiptar, Shqipëri, and Shqipni, which dominate today. In Albania, this name is alive from the South to the North.
Regarding the expansion of the national name, it can be said that this name had an expansion of geographical use in the 14th century. It is thought that this name was expanded all over the country since the Skenderbeu era, by evolving from a tribe or province’s name to a national name of the country. This name was also taken by those who were ousted to Greece and Italy in the 14th and 15th century, who did not recognize the name shqiptar, Shqipni/Shqipëri, etc., which is seen to be younger and born or generalized in Albania after their displacement. [4, P.65]"
"The words Shqipëri and Shqiptar are attested from 14th century onward, but it was only at the end of 17th and beginning of the early 18th centuries that the placename Shqipëria and the ethnic demonym Shqiptarë gradually replaced Arbëria and Arbëreshë amongst Albanian speakers in the Balkans."
@@roolentodd395 I am not sure to what evidences you are referring to, but the first historian that recorded Albanian history in Albanian language is Marin Barleti, and in all of his writings Albanians are either called as Arbers, Macedoninas, or Epirotans. Shqiperia was not invented as an idea at middle ages, and Barleti does not mentioned it in none of his books.
@@TheAldo20011 You can speculate and come up with many other theories about the origin of the term "Shqiptar", the point is that the reason why Shqiptaria was embraced as an idea it was because it was used as a philosophy of unification.
People did not start to call themselves shqiptar just because they wanted it and thought it was cool to do so.
It was through Albanian Renaissance that writers in Arbersh communities in Italy, and other colonies at other countries in Balkans started to come together and develop the ideology of Shqiptaria.
Albanian Renaissance started to develop at those times when speaking Albanian was considered as heresy in Orthodox church and haram in the High Porte.
That was the time when the underground newspapers and writings started to use the term Shiptaria alongside with the one of Arberia.
Shqiptaria was a term that was embraced out of necessity in order to unify a nation divided by different Abrahamic believes.
I mentioned in the comment above, that Marin Barleti never used the term Shqiptaria in none of his writings and that is an indicator to me that Shqiptaria was not a know name during middle ages. Even if it was around as a term, it must have been of small significance, because if it would have been important, Barleti would have mentioned it at least once.
I still believe that Shqiptaria it is just an ideology, Albanians never stopped being Arber. Yes we are Arbers that believe in Shqiptaria, but people of different background can also become Shqiptar if they embrace its philosophy language and tradition. Bottom line Albanians ethnicity is Arber, mainstream ideology that they follow is Shqiptaria.
so, anyone can be Albanian if they follow the lifestyle? doesn’t that sound like any other ethnicity out there? ethnicities have been created as a result of shared experiences, customs, moral law, etc. the Albanian identity is a social construct just like any other culturally-bonded social group

Arberesh and Arvanites are called like this because when their immigration occured the today albanians were called "Arber" . That's the reason the why the Arberesh are called like that and Arvanites are called from Arber or Arven or Arvanon! I speak all 3 languages (Albanian ,Greek and Italian too..) and can make the connections. The letter b from Arber becomes v or "β"... so it becomes αρβανιτ... Μπραβο Δημητρη! Bravo Dhimitri

Please correct me if I am wrong, I don't think I heard even once the word Thracian (as written in the title) mentioned in the video! Curious to know if there is any connection between Arvanitika and Thracian? Cam and Arvanitika speak the same dialect. Albanian litterary version was enforced during communist time . The litterary Albanian was based in a region called Zagoria near Gjirokaster. Just to clarify, in litterary Albanian you say "gjysem" for half but, most Albanians especially mid anf north Albania say "gjymes." Respekt to both of you!
Dimitri is a speaker of Thracian Arvanitika, he discusses this in the video. It isn't about ancient Thracian.
@@Drgezimdautiindeed all the linguist says that albania is the oldest from the Indo-European languages. That's has nothing to do with Nationalist but with facts. Albanians didn't sprouted from nowere as you can see they are in the west of balkan with slavs all around them wich means that they were always there. Albanians are the only nation that their border has albanians greece have the arvanitas, italy the arberesh, Montenegro has albanians kosovo albanias even kosovo is bordering with albanians in serbia albanians north Macedonia albanians ,croatia they have albanians bosnia too. It's not about nationalism its about reality.

So the arvanitica is going to be difficult to preserve if the youth is not learning it now.
Albanians in Kosova we also call ourselves Shqiptar..that doesnt mean though that we moved to Kosova after the term 'Skipetar' took over from 'Arber'. It just means that we adopted to the new name like the rest of Albanians. Even here you will find people that try to separate themselves from Albania and out emphasis on our identity as Kosovare and even prefer using the ghegh dialects..but yeah we dont really take them that serious.
Also it aint complicated that the Arvanitika guy said that we called our self Skiptar but Albanians that came from Albania we called Arvanitika..yeah you did as the other Greeks do.
@ARBERESH TV my friend i would suggest you that when you are trying to compare the albanian language with arberesh or arvanitika should include also the many dialects that albanian is spoken because you will find many more words that can not find in standart albanian
Yes we do that in other videos. Subscribe
@ I have checked the other videos but sometimes the guys that you talk to some of them live outside albania for a long time and they speak mostly the standart albanian. anyway congratulations for such initiatives

Arvanites from northern Greece came later in in Greece than arvanites of southern Greece! That’s why they say shqiptar!! Arvanites of attiika region came earlier and don’t recognize the word shqiptar!
@@myhyrijexhafa6179 it is both.. there were later waves too, from the northern Gheg Albanians that are also documented because they were not just spontaneous. In many cases they were invited by the Byzantine rulers re-settle areas of today's Greece depopulated through wars, epidemics, and so were vulnerable to the ottoman occupation .. so they were chosen for their ability to fight and hold on to those territories and so they brought along their families and settled there.
Some later movements were motivated to evade Islamization after the Ottoman conquest. I find it fascinating to hear Arvanites speak both Gheg and Tosk.. Many still have clearly typical North Albanian surnames to this day!

Lord Byron about the modern Greek language 1809. Byron wrote only the tru reality that he was seeing .Under the directives of his kingdom,Byron helped the Greek indenpedency. The number of Greek population was wery low when Byrom visited Balkans. In the entire Balkan peninsula only 300,000 Greeks could be found that time.The real and true name of these people was Gypsy from ancient Time.The people of Balkan peninsula were calling the people or imigrants who arrived from Egypt in the short form as Gypsy. They were Dark and some were Black. The imigrants spoke the broken latin. In ancient time the latin language was the language of Romans and universal language that all countries were using for bilateral relatiion.They wealthy in order to be diffrent from the poor and the others started to use the latin language.Their servants started also to learn this language but they spoke the broken Latin. This broken Latin language later was known as a Greek language, and with the modification of this

hm.. so Napflio has an Agio (Saint) Vlassis village! There is a Saint Vlassis / Shen Vlash in Durres also, my maternal grandmother's village!
Wow that’s cool! We come from Morea so it’s relevant because that village is near nafplio
@ yeah, the saint Vlash or Blaise is venerated in several other places in Albania, in both Orthodox and Catholic rites since he lived long before the schism, during the period of persecution of Christians..
But he was a bishop in Durres and was martyred there so this particular Shen Vlash village is very important especially for the Orthodox, with a Theology Seminary, monastery, church, etc., a pilgrimage site from all religious background people as they say healings and miracles were experienced there.. Fascinating place!
Btw I remember reading somewhere that Napflio was really close to becoming the capital of Greece but it didn’t because it was mainly full of Arvanites/Albanians. Can anyone confirm that?
@@TheLegendOfKroi that is what I heard too.. it was the first choice as capital city for Greece. Arvanitia is to this day the name of the most beautiful parts of the city of Nafplio on the seaside.
@@TheLegendOfKroi well if nafplio was full of arvanites what about Athens and the regions around?? 😂😂, the reasons that Nafplio didn't become the capital was that the foreign diplomats and king Otto himself wanted to see Athens as in the past again,in all her glory, anyway even today in Nafplio the most famous coast region is called ARVANITIA
In Italy no body stopped Arbereshet to speak in Greece even today you can't some Greeks are very afraid about the truth there is a lot of Albania people in Greece
It’s not true, they stopped it for a very long time in Italy
We atribute tha fact that Arberesh where able to preserve their identity relatively better than the Arvanites in greece ,to the idea that italy didn’t oppress or forbid or excommunicate you as the Greek state and church did to Arvanites or other ethnicities for that matter…
Can you please tell more or share some source links about what you said above ?
@ veramente? Non pensavo fosse successo. Mi puoi dire che periodo?
That is not True.Arvanitika are both spoken and in songs. We have many singers that sing in Arvanitika.Spiros Berbos for example.
@@Lullubekatsas it’s true that there are still some ( not many though) Arvanites still singing and speaking their Arvanites languege , as long as thay are very clear to publicly express that they are not of Albanian culture , language. That “have been thought “ that their culture and language has nothing to do with Arberia-Albania-Arberesh… because that how the Greek state wants them to feel as an subgroup of Hellenic culture , nothing more … otherwise that have problems 😉
