Ushtrohen

Ushtrohen is an Albanian verb meaning to exercise, train, or drill, typically in a military or disciplined context. It denotes actions in which individuals or groups practice skills, procedures, or routines to improve preparedness or performance. The form is related to the verb ushtroj (to train or exercise) and shares a root with ushtri (army) and stërvitje (training or drill). While its core sense is military, ushtrohen is also used in civilian contexts to describe practicing any skill or activity to gain proficiency.

In usage, ushtrohen appears in sentences about groups or institutions engaging in practice or drills. It can convey ongoing or habitual activity, such as routine training sessions, exercises, or rehearsals. The term is common in formal language, journalism, and official communications, and often appears alongside related terms like stërvitje and ushtri.
