I am trying to put all the data about Latin loans in Albanian in a
database. Working on it, I observed that the Latin verbs have been
"albanised" suffixing the Latin verb with the suffix "-oj".
Some examples for loans from Latin into Albanian:
detegere > dëftoj
dirigere > dërgoj
desiderare > dëshiroj
Question:
which is the origin of this suffix "-oj"? Which is its function?
