Description
About seven million people speak Albanian as their native language. It is the official language of Albania and Kosovo as well as of some municipalities in Macedonia and Montenegro. It is also the first language for numerous minorities in other Balkan countries such as Greece, Serbia, and Bulgaria, even though some of these countries may not offi cially recognize these minorities as such. It is also spoken natively by different communities in southeastern Italy, all the way from Abruzzi to the island of Sicily. There is also a diaspora of Albanian speakers in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Turkey, Germany, Russia, and Ukraine, among other countries.In Albanian the language is called shqip[ʃcip], but until the fifteenth century it was known as Arbërisht or Arbnisht, which is still the name given to the dialects spoken in Italy. Albanian belongs to the Indo- European family, where it forms a branch of its own. Although there is no agreement as to its origin, most scholars would claim today that it is a descendant of the Illyrian language. However, another group of scholars would support the claim that it is a descendant of Thracian, whileyet others would argue that it is related to Dacian.Albanian is a Balkan language, together with Greek, Romanian, Aromanian, Serbian, Croatian, Bulgarian, and Macedonian, among others. Albanian exhibits many of the Balkan Sprachbund properties, among them enclitic definite articles (where the defi nite article follows, rather than precedes, the noun) (Lesson 5), object reduplication (where the direct and the indirect objects may co- occur with the corresponding object clitic pronoun) (Lessons 11 and 13), dative and genitive merged into one case (Lessons 10 and 11), loss of the infinitive (Lesson 8), infi nitive clauses replaced by a subjunctive clause (Lesson 8), future tense originating from the equivalent of the verb 'to want' (Lesson 8), conditional formed with a future marker followed by an imperfect (Lesson 16). This course is the continuation of DISCOVERING ALBANIAN 1. After 3 review lessons, we will cover Lessons 7, 8 and 9 of Discovering Albanian by Linda Mëniku and Héctor Campos. By the end of the course the student will have achieved a mid-A1 level. This course will concentrate on three different tenses: namely, the Present Indicative, the Present Subjunctive and the Future Tense. We will also study Imperatives. We will work on the syntax of definite and indefinite nouns in the singular and plural and we will expand on the forms of Class 1 and Class 2 adjectives.
