Përqendron

Përqendron is an Albanian verb form that generally means to concentrate or to focus one’s attention or efforts on something. It is used to describe directing mental or practical energy toward a task, problem, or goal. The form is commonly encountered in everyday language, writing about study, work, or performance.

In usage, përqendron is typically employed with an object that specifies what is being focused on, such as vëmendjen (attention), një detaj (a detail), or një objektiv (an objective). For example, Ai përqendron vëmendjen tek detajet e prezantimit, meaning he concentrates his attention on the details of the presentation. The expression can also refer to directing time, energy, or resources toward a goal.

Përqendron appears in present tense with third-person singular subject, while other forms exist for different subjects and tenses. The reflexive counterpart, përqendrohem, conveys the sense “I focus,” used when the subject is the one directing their own attention. The concept is closely related to related terms such as përqëndrim or koncentrim, which denote the state or act of concentration.

The term is used across formal and informal registers and is common in education, sports, business, and media discussions where focus and attention are central. It should be noted that Shqip, Albanian, offers subtle nuances in emphasis and register, but përqendron remains a straightforward verb for describing focused attention or concentrated effort.
