Word for the Travel Wise (01/20/07)
Don't let the cat get your tongue when trying to say hello in Albanian. I think you'll find this one fairly easy to say.Today's word is an Albanian word used in Albania:
tung - hello
Albanian is spoken in Albania, Kosovo, Greece, Serbia and Montenegro, and the Republic of Macedonia. It is in its own independent branch of the Indo-European language family with no living close relatives as stated by Wikipedia. Argjiro is a pretty new site with a long way to go, but there are a few things there to help a beginner in the Albanian lang get a foothold. Start with the English-Albanian dictionary. Single-Serving online has an awesome Albanian phrase guide for the tourist with audio files. For history, lessons, and other useful knowledge on the tongue of Albania visit, Albania World.
Past Albanian words: muaj, kujtesë
