Pyetje

Pyetje is a noun in the Albanian language meaning "question" or "inquiry." It is used to refer to a statement that seeks information, clarification, or a response. The word derives from the verb pyet, meaning "to ask," and belongs to a family of terms related to asking.

In standard Albanian, the base form pyetje is used for the indefinite singular, while the definite singular is pyetja and the definite plural is pyetjet. For example: “Kjo është pyetja e parë” (This is the first question) and “A ka pyetje?” (Are there any questions?).

Pyetje appears across contexts such as education, journalism, debates, and everyday speech. It can be combined with adjectives to describe the nature of the inquiry, e.g., “pyetje të vështira” (difficult questions). Related terms include pyetësor (questionnaire) and its derivatives, which expand on the concept to organized sets of questions.

The term is widely used in formal and informal Albanian, with standard forms recognized in both written and spoken language. It also participates in common expressions like “pyetje publike” (public question) or “pyetja e sotme” (the question of today), reflecting its role in conveying information, curiosity, and discussion.
