How do I learn Albanian?
Answer
Just keep adding ten words.
Here are some more:
English - Albanian
cost - k o s t o
mount - mali
mountain - mal
no - jo (remember the old English song with the chorus Oh, no John, no John, no John, no. No in English is Jo in Albanian.)
reduction - r e d u k t i m
swimming pool - p i s h i n e (like the French piscine)
ticket - b i l e t ë (to get a letter e with two dots above, hold down the letter e, wait a couple of seconds, then simultaneously tap the number 4)
train - tren
train station - s t a c i o n t r e n i
yes - p o
Albanian - English
jo - no
k o s t o - cost (how to remember it - cost oh!)
mal - mountain
mali - mount
p i s h i n e - swimming pool
p o - yes
r e d u k t i m - reduction
s t a c i o n t r e n i - train station - note that in Albanian the adjective in this case is after the noun
t o a l e t - toilet
tren - train
Learning other languages is easy and fun.
