Gheg and Tosk
Spoken Albanian has two main dialect groups: Gheg in the north and in Kosovo, Tosk in the south. The transcript uses standard Albanian spelling, which is based on Tosk. Gheg forms are written close to standard spelling, so a word may look slightly different from how it sounded. Check the free first part for a strongly dialectal recording.
For families in Germany, Switzerland, Italy and beyond
Many Albanian families keep wedding videos, calls and stories from relatives at home. Choose German, Italian or English under "Also translate" and the translation appears under each Albanian paragraph, so children who grew up abroad can follow every word.
