gurët

Gurët is the Albanian word for the stones, serving as the definite plural form of gur (stone). In Albanian, gur means a stone or rock, and the language marks definiteness and number through its noun endings. The indefinite plural form is gurë (stones), while gurët explicitly means “the stones.”

Usage and grammar: Gurët is used when referring to a specific set of stones or stones that are already known to the listener. It appears in everyday language as well as in literature, describing physical stones, rock formations, or stone-related objects. The form reflects the grammatical system of Albanian, where endings signal number and definiteness.

Example: Gurët janë të rëndë. — The stones are heavy.

Notes: As a basic noun, gur is common in descriptive phrases, toponymy, and rural or historical contexts where stones or rock features are relevant. The term is neutral and widely understood in Albanian-speaking communities.
