Përvetësoni

Përvetësoni is an Albanian verb that translates to "to adopt," "to assimilate," or "to internalize" in English. It carries a sense of taking something in and making it one's own, either in a literal or figurative sense.

In its most common usage, përvetësoni refers to the act of adopting something, such as adopting a child, a new habit, or a particular viewpoint. It can also describe the process of assimilation, where an individual or group integrates into a new culture or society, adopting its customs and language.

Figuratively, përvetësoni can mean to internalize knowledge, skills, or values. For instance, a student might say they have "përvetësuar" a concept, meaning they have understood and made it a part of their own understanding. Similarly, a person can "përvetësojnë" a new ideology or belief system, making it their own. The verb often implies a voluntary and active process of integration and acceptance. Its nuance lies in the depth of adoption, suggesting more than just surface-level acquaintance but a genuine embrace and integration.
