Learning the Albanian Articles is very essential because its framework is used in every

day discussion. The more you exercise the subject, the nearer you get to perfecting the
Albanian.
Albanian articles are words that combine with a noun to indicate the kind of referrals
being created by the noun. Usually articles specify the lexical definiteness of the noun.
Illustrations are "the, a, and an".

Grammar Tips:

Definite Article:

Unlike English, which has only one definite article “the", Albanian has
endings:
i (masc. sing., libri (the book), lapsi (the pen) Mali,
u (masc. sing.) shoku (the friend), Zogu,
a (fem. sing.) vajza (the girl),
ja (fem. sing.) lulja (the flower)

Indefinite Article:
While we have articles: (a / an / some) in English as Indefinite articles,
we also have një / disa (ca) in Albanian.
(a, an) are used in English, you need to use (një) to say the equivalent
in Albanian.

Një (masc. sing.), një telefon (a phone), një macë,

Një (masc. sing.) një makinë (a car)
Disa/ ca (masc. pl.) disa / ca telefonë (some phones) it’s same here:
disa and ca it has the same meaning (some), and is for both genders in pl.
Disa / ca (fem. pl.) disa /ca makina (some cars)
e.g.: Ca libra janë në shkollë. (Some books are at school)

Learning the Albanian feminine is very essential because its structure is used in every day conversation.
The more you exercise the subject, the nearer you get to perfecting the Albanian terminology. But first we
need to know what the part of Feminine is in the structure of the grammar in Albanian.
Albanian feminine represents females qualities linked particularly to females and ladies or things
regarded feminine. The complement to feminine is masculine.

Grammar Tips:

To form a feminine from the masculine in Albanian, you basically add (e) if the word finishes in a
consonant.
Note. The gender of the noun is unchangeable only if the noun tells us a profession, nationality of doing
something.

Let's see some examples:
