Përsëritshëm

Përsëritshëm is an Albanian term that functions as an adverb and, less commonly, as an adjective, and it describes something that occurs again and again in a repetitive or recurring manner. It can modify verbs, describing how an action is carried out, or describe a process or pattern as being repeatedly repeated.

Etymology and form: the word derives from the Albanian verb përsëroj (to repeat) and carries the suffix -shëm, which is used to form adjectives and adverbs. Related forms include përsëritje (repetition) and përsëritur (repeated). The term conveys a sense of monotony or insistence through repetition, depending on context.

Usage: përsëritshëm is common in descriptive writing, analysis, journalism, and everyday speech when emphasizing repetition. It can carry neutral or slightly negative connotations, depending on the context, such as criticism of a repetitive pattern or praise of a consistently repeated method. Examples include describing speech, procedures, or events that recur.

Examples:

- Ai flet përsëritshëm për të njëjtën çështje. (He talks repeatedly about the same issue.)

- Procesi është përsëritshëm dhe i ngadalshëm. (The process is repetitive and slow.)

- Në historinë e vendit, këto ngjarje shfaqen përsëritshëm në një cikël të ngjashëm. (In the country’s history, these events recur in a similar cycle.)
