mbahët

Mbahët is a term that appears in certain Albanian dialects, generally referring to a small, often rocky island or islet. The exact linguistic origin and prevalence of the word can vary depending on the specific region and its dialectal traditions. In some coastal or lakeside communities, "mbahët" might be used informally to describe a visible landmass surrounded by water that is not large enough to be considered a proper island in a more formal geographical sense. It could also, in some contexts, refer to a submerged rock or a sandbar that occasionally surfaces. The term is not widely standardized and is more likely to be encountered in local vernacular rather than in formal geographical or scientific literature. Its usage is typically descriptive and tied to the immediate landscape.
