Grammatical notes: In Albanian, participles act as adjectives or as part of compound tenses with auxiliary verbs such as është or janë. Lëshuar agrees with the noun it modifies in gender and number, like other participles, and is employed in passive or resultative constructions to convey that an action of release or discharge has been completed.

Etymology and usage: Lëshuar is formed from the verb lëshoj with the typical Albanian suffix -uar, a common pattern for turning verbs into participial adjectives. The range of meanings translates roughly to released, set free, discharged, or emitted, depending on the context. In formal prose, it frequently appears in passive constructions to indicate a completed act of releasing or letting go.

Translations and equivalents: In English, lëshuar can be translated as released or freed (in a custody or duty sense), or discharged/emit as appropriate to the context. Its exact interpretation is guided by the sentence and the domain of use, from justice to science to everyday speech. See also: lëshoj, liruar, burgu.
