Këshilluar

Këshilluar is the past participle of the Albanian verb këshilloj, which means to advise, counsel, or recommend. In usage, këshilluar typically indicates that someone has received advice or that guidance has been given. It can function as an adjective describing a person or thing that has been advised, or as part of a passive voice construction.

In grammar, këshilluar agrees with gender and number when used adjectivally: masculine singular i këshilluar, feminine singular e këshilluar, and plural të këshilluar. It is commonly complemented by an agent introduced with nga to specify who gave the advice, for example këshilluar nga mjeku or këshilluar nga një ekspert. Typical expressions include: Ai është këshilluar të ndalojë duhanin (He has been advised to quit smoking) and Pacienti është këshilluar nga mjeku (The patient was advised by the doctor).

Origin and related terms: këshilluar derives from këshilloj, which in turn comes from the noun këshillë, meaning advice or counsel. Related terms include këshill (advice), këshillim (advice or counseling), and këshilltar (counselor or adviser).

In usage, këshilluar appears across formal and semi-formal Albanian to convey that guidance has been provided, whether in medical, legal, educational, or personal contexts. It functions as a pale passive participle that can introduce or describe the act of giving advice or being advised.
