Informacioni

Informacioni is the Albanian definite noun meaning "the information." It is a loanword formed from the base informacion with the definite suffix -i, reflecting Albanian noun formation for masculine borrowed terms. It is used in standard Albanian to refer to data, facts, or knowledge communicated in a context.

In usage, informacioni appears in phrases such as informacioni publik (public information) and informacioni i marrë nga burime të besueshme (information obtained from reliable sources). It can function as a general referent to information as a concept or as a specific body of data depending on context. The indefinite form of the word is informacion.

The term has cognates in related languages and shares its roots with informacio in various Romance languages, all ultimately tracing back to the Latin informatio, meaning the act of informing or shaping. Adoption into Albanian occurred through contact with Romance languages and through multilingual media and education, and the word is common in media, academia, and government prose.
