Përforcuar

Përforcuar is an Albanian adjective meaning reinforced or strengthened. It is used to describe objects, structures, or materials that have been fortified with additional support or materials to increase their strength, durability, or stability. In construction and engineering, the term frequently appears in phrases such as beton i përforcuar (reinforced concrete) or mur i përforcuar me shtesë çeliku (wall reinforced with steel).

The word is the past participle form of the verb përforcoj, which means to reinforce or to strengthen. It is formed with the prefix për- and the suffix -uar, and it functions as an adjective that agrees with the noun it modifies. For example, muרים i përforcuar, muret e përforcuara, depending on gender and number. The form is used in both descriptive and technical language to indicate that some element has undergone reinforcement.

In usage, përfórcuar appears in technical contexts such as architecture, civil engineering, and materials science, as well as in everyday language when referring to strengthened features or defenses. It can describe structural components, protective measures, or even attitudinal or procedural enhancements in a metaphorical sense (for example, procedures for aging households or organizational safeguards described as përforcuar).
