Shqyrtua

Shqyrtua is a term found in the Albanian language that seems related to the verb shqyrtoj, meaning to examine, inspect, or scrutinize. In standard Albanian, the noun for the act of examining is shqyrtimi (or shqyrtja). Shqyrtua may appear as a less common nominalized or participial form in some dialects or historical texts, and its precise function can vary by context.

Morphology and usage: It is formed by adding a suffix to the verb stem shqyrt-, and in Albanian dialects the -ua ending can nominalize or adjectivize. The form shqyrtua is not part of everyday standard vocabulary and is more likely to be found in older or regional writings. When used, it can denote the act of examination or the thing that is examined, depending on the surrounding grammar.

Distribution and notes: Because shqyrtua is not widely attested in modern dictionaries, it is generally best treated as a historical or dialectal variant. In contemporary Albanian, shqyrtimi and shqyrtja are preferred for "the examination" or "the review," while shqyrtua may appear as a quoted form or in linguistic discussion about morphology.
