Turistëve

Turistëve is a grammatical form in Albanian, not a standalone term. It is the genitive or dative plural form of the masculine noun turist, which means “a tourist.” In Albanian, nouns decline for case and number, and different endings are used to express possession or indirect objects. The basic, indefinite plural is turistë, while the definite plural is turistët. The form turistëve is used specifically where the genitive (of the tourists) or the dative (to/for the tourists) is required.

In practice, turistëve appears in phrases that involve relationships to or with groups of tourists. It often occurs after prepositions or in constructions that indicate possession or indirect objects. For example, a sentence like “libri i turistëve” translates to “the book of the tourists,” illustrating the genitive plural usage. Other contexts include statistics, policy discussions, and travel writing that reference groups of travelers.

Turistëve, therefore, is part of the broader Albanian nomenclature for describing relations to people who travel. It complements related forms such as turisti (the tourist), turistët (the tourists, definite plural), and the broader vocabulary of tourism terms used in Albanian-language texts and signage. As with other Albanian noun forms, its exact use depends on the syntactic role (genitive or dative) and the surrounding prepositions or verbs.
