Shqyrtues

Shqyrtues is a noun in Albanian used to designate a person who examines or reviews something, or who observes or oversees a process. The word derives from the verb shqyrto, meaning to examine, to consider carefully, and the agent suffix -ues. The feminine form shqyrtuese is also used.

The term is versatile and appears across domains. In legal and administrative contexts, a shqyrtues may be an evaluator or assessor who reviews applications, documents, or evidentiary materials. In academic or editorial settings, it can denote a reviewer or editor who assesses manuscripts or proposals. In journalism or public administration, it can describe a person who observes, analyzes, or monitors ongoing events or reports.

Usage is generally neutral and dependent on context. The expression does not imply a formal title unless specified by the employing institution. It is often translated into English as observer, evaluator, reviewer, or inspector, depending on the role described.

Related forms include shqyrto (to examine) and shqyrtimi (the act of examination or review). The feminine form shqyrtuese exists to agree with feminine subjects.
