Excuse me I make one intervention more. I remarqued a word but in the
previous mail I wanted to speak about gji= uger and not more.-
I remarque the expresion "shtrëngoj na gji" which I dont need to
translate beliving is the same as romanian
"strânge la piept" ( to take someone in arms and press together an your
chest).If I take a look in dictionary there is
the word "shtrëngon"= to press together, to press the hands, a wide
field of senses almost as in Romanian too.
Is this word "shtrëngon" a Latin loan?
