Përfituese

Përfituese is a feminine noun in Albanian that denotes a person who benefits from something, such as a program, policy, contract, grant, or resource. The term identifies the beneficiary and emphasizes the reception of advantages or payments. It is the feminine form of the agent noun derived from the verb përfitoj, meaning to benefit or profit. The masculine counterpart is typically përfituues (or sometimes rendered as përfituës in certain forms), and usage depends on the gender of the person referred to, with agreement in the rest of the sentence.

Etymology: مرك from the verb përfitoj plus the agent suffix -ues; the feminine ending -e marks gender.

Usage: Common in administrative, legal, and economic language to describe recipients of subsidies, grants, subsidies, or preferential terms. It appears in phrases such as përfituese e skemës (beneficiary of the scheme) or përfituese të programit (beneficiary of the program). The term is roughly equivalent to the English “beneficiary.” In some contexts, the loanword beneficiar is also encountered, but në standard Albanian përfituese is the widely used native term.

Examples: Përfituese e këtij programi është një fermer i vogël. Secili përfituese i skemës do të njihet me të drejtat e tij.
