dërgohet

Dërgohet is an Albanian verb form that means “is sent” or “is being sent.” It is the present tense passive (or middle) form of the verb dërgoj, which means to send. The form dërgohet is used with a singular subject, while the plural counterpart is dërgohen (they are sent). The related past participle is dërguar, used to form perfect tenses such as është dërguar (“has been sent”).

In usage, dërgohet appears most often in formal or administrative contexts, such as logistics, postal communications, and news reporting, where the emphasis is on the action of sending rather than on who performs the action. In everyday speech, the active dërgoj is more common when the agent is specified (for example, “unë dërgoj një mesazh” – “I send a message”).

Grammatical construction in Albanian allows the agent to be omitted, as in Letra dërgohet sot (“The letter is sent today”). When the agent is mentioned, it is typically introduced with the preposition nga, as in Letra dërgohet nga posti (“The letter is sent by the post [office]”). Other related forms include do të dërgohet (“it will be sent”) and është dërguar (“has been sent”).

Related terms include dërgues (sender) and dërgim (dispatch, shipment). Dërguar also appears in compound tenses, paired with auxiliary verbs to convey voice and aspect. The word is widely recognized in official writing and is a standard element in Albanian vocabulary for address and logistics.
