funksionalë

Funksionalë is the Albanian plural form of the adjective funksional, meaning functional or utilitarian. It is used to describe nouns that fulfill a purpose or function. The word derives from funksion (function) with the common Albanian adjectival suffix -al. In Albanian, adjectives agree with the noun they modify in gender and number; funksionalë marks masculine plural nouns such as komponentë funksionalë (functional components) or sisteme funksionalë (functional systems). The corresponding singular forms are funksional (masculine singular) and funksionale (feminine forms), with appropriate endings for number and definiteness.

In usage, funksionalë appears in technical, scientific, engineering, and everyday language when emphasizing usefulness or operation rather than aesthetics. It can describe products, processes, or designs that are intended to perform a particular task. For example, technical documentation might describe “kërkesat funksionale” (functional requirements) or “arkitekturë funksionale” (functional architecture). It is not a proper name or a distinct movement; rather, it is a standard grammatical form used across contexts.
