aplikueshme

Aplikueshme is an Albanian adjective meaning applicable, relevant to a given context, or capable of being applied in practice. It is used to describe rules, standards, methods, statements, or provisions that can be used or enforced under specific conditions. In legal, regulatory, and policy language, the term signals that a provision or criterion is suitable for use in the circumstances being discussed.

Grammatical forms and usage: the masculine singular form is aplikueshëm, the feminine singular form is aplikueshme, with plural forms adapting to gender. The noun form related to the concept is aplikueshmëri, meaning applicability. In sentences, it is common to encounter phrases such as “dispozita është aplikueshme në këtë rast” (the provision is applicable in this case). The term often appears in contracts, guidelines, assessments, and jurisprudence to indicate whether a rule or criterion can be applied to a particular situation.

Distinctions and related terms: aplikueshme is frequently contrasted with zbatueshmë (or zbatueshme), which emphasizes enforceability or implementability rather than mere suitability. While aplikueshme focuses on whether something can be applied, zbatueshme concerns whether it can be carried out or enforced in practice. In practice, speakers may choose between these terms to convey whether a rule is merely relevant or also actionable.
