Përballueshme

Përballueshme is an Albanian adjective used to describe something that can be borne, endured, or afforded without excessive difficulty. In everyday language, it most often refers to affordability—prices or costs that a person or household can manage within their budget. It can also describe burdens or tasks that are tolerable or manageable under given circumstances.

The term derives from the root përball- meaning to bear or face, combined with the suffix -ueshme, which forms adjectives indicating possibility or feasibility. The feminine singular form is përballueshme, while the masculine singular can be përballueshëm when modifying masculine nouns. The corresponding noun form is përballueshmëri, referring to the property of being bearable or affordable.

Usage of the term spans economics, housing, health care, and policy discussions. Examples include phrases such as “një çmim përballueshëm” (an affordable price) or “përballueshmëria e shpenzimeve” (the affordability of costs). It may also describe burdens that individuals can manage, as in “një detyrë përballueshme” (a manageable task).

Related concepts in Albanian include affordability, bearability, and cost burden. In translations, përballueshme is commonly rendered as “affordable” or “bearable” in English, depending on context. The word is widely used in Albanian-language media, consumer information, and policy discussions to convey feasibility and economic accessibility for households and individuals.
