Njësive

Njësive is an Albanian grammatical form tied to the noun njësia, which means unit or entity. In standard usage, njësia refers to a discrete element in mathematics, science, or measurement, such as a unit of length, time, or quantity. Njësive, specifically, is the genitive/dative plural form of njësia, and it appears in contexts that express possession or relation to multiple units. For example, phrases like “vlerat e njësive të matjes” (the values of the measurement units) or “njësive kohore” (time units) illustrate how the form is used in technical writing.

In practice, njësive functions mainly as a grammatical form rather than as a distinct lexical item. The corresponding nominative plural is typically njësitë (the units), while njësive is chosen when the sentence requires a genitive or dative construction. Because of this, njësive is most common in formal, scientific, or mathematical Albanian texts, where precise relations between units must be stated.

Etymology and related forms: the concept behind njësia is native to Albanian and linguistically linked to the broader idea of unity or unity-based counting. Related terms include njësia (the unit), njësitë (the units, nominative plural), and other contextual phrases that describe systems of measurement or discrete elements in a set.
