      The greatest gift you can gift to your child is the gift of knowledge,
      .
      I will assume you are a middle aged person,
      .
      when you're middle aged it is hard to learn new things , like trying to mix almost hardened cement,
      .
      so the best way to learn something new at an older age is severe repetition over at least a month,
      .
      meaning if you want to learn this language you have to think in Albanian,
      .
      talk Albanian,
      .
      act Albanian,
      .
      listen Albanian,
      .
      even eat Albanian,
      .
      that means eat Albanian foods, read everything in Albanian and speak and think only in Albanian ,
      .
      your brain and body will be left in a live or die mode which will force you to learn no matter what.
      .
      These 30 day will be hard but you will be almost fluent by the end of it.
      .
      Hope this helps 🤙😊

    My girlfriend's native language is Albanian. She doesn't speak much of it, but I want to learn some basic conversational skills to surprise her. This is actually really well done. I like how you say the word/phrase at a normal pace and then slower. It's really helpful. The explanations for formal vs informal are also super helpful. I also think the words/phrases you chose are very useful ones. So thank you for making this!

      Robt is just the prural form of it refering to all your relatives and prents that live in the same house with you.
      When people say “Të q*fsha robt” then they mean “I will f*ck your family members” which is the rudest sentence. If you say this to an Albanian, you are putting your life in danger and I am not even kidding. Careful when you say this to a person.
