Ecën

ecën is a verb in Albanian meaning to walk or to go on foot. It is the present indicative form used with third-person singular subjects (ai/ajo ecën). The infinitive of the verb is ec. The verb is intransitive and denotes physical movement on foot, or travel by walking; in some contexts it can be used more broadly for motion on foot within a space.

In usage, ecën shows movement in the present tense with a singular subject, and other subjects or tenses are formed through standard Albanian verb conjugation patterns. The verb is common in everyday speech, storytelling, and instructions. It can appear with directional adverbs or prepositions to specify where the walking is taking place or where one is going, and it interacts with other components of the sentence to convey timing, aspect, and mood.

Ecën is part of the core set of Albanian motion verbs and shares its basic behavior with related verbs in the language’s verbal system. It is typically learned early by students of Albanian for describing ordinary locomotion and travel on foot, and it appears across dialects in standard usage.
