Kallö

Kallë is a term that can refer to several distinct concepts, primarily in the context of Albanian language and culture. Most commonly, "kallë" refers to the maize plant, also known as corn. In Albanian, "kallë" is the general word for this cereal grain, which is a staple food and agricultural product in Albania and surrounding regions. It is used in various culinary preparations and plays a significant role in traditional farming practices. The plant itself, with its tall stalk and ear of kernels, is widely recognized.

Beyond its botanical meaning, "kallë" can also be used colloquially in certain Albanian dialects to denote a specific type of cheese. This cheese is typically made from sheep's or goat's milk and has a distinct flavor and texture. Its production methods and specific characteristics can vary regionally, but it is generally considered a traditional dairy product.

Furthermore, the word "kallë" might appear in other, less common contexts or as part of idiomatic expressions within the Albanian language, though these uses are less prevalent than its association with maize or cheese. Understanding which meaning of "kallë" is intended usually depends on the surrounding conversation or text.
