Aplikimi

Aplikimi is a noun in Albanian that refers to the act of applying something, such as a rule, method, or principle, or the submission or request made to obtain something (for example a job or a permit). It can also denote the result of applying, namely the implementation or practical use of a concept or technique.

Etymology: The term derives from Latin applicatio and entered Albanian through historical language contact, with related forms such as aplikim (the base form) and aplikimi (the definite form).

Usage: In administrative and legal contexts, aplikimi can mean submitting a request or form for a permit, job, scholarship, or similar objective. In law and philosophy, it describes the application of a rule, principle, or theory to a specific case. In science and mathematics, it denotes using a model or method to solve a problem. In information technology and everyday language, the concept of software applications is often discussed with terms like aplikacion or aplikacionet, while aplikimi can be used more broadly to emphasize the act of applying.

Grammatical notes: Aplikim is the base noun; aplikimi is the definite form. The plural is aplikimet. The related verb is te apliko, meaning “to apply.” Aplikimi thus covers both the act of applying and the resulting implementation in various domains.
