mesazhin

Mesazhin is a noun in Albanian meaning "the message" and is the definite form derived from mesazh, the common word for “message.” The term is used to refer to information conveyed through speech, writing, or electronic communication, including SMS, email, or public notices. In everyday Albanian, mesazh and mesazhin cover the same semantic field, with mesazhin marking a definite referent in a given context.

Grammar and usage: The form mesazhin appears in noun phrases where the message is specific or previously identified, such as mesazhin tuaj (your message) or mesazhin e fundit (the latest message). The plural form for the general sense is mesazhet (the messages). Like other Albanian definite forms, mesazhin functions as the determiner-bearing noun in a sentence and can combine with adjectives or other determiners.

Etymology and history: The word mesazh is a modern Albanian loanword that reflects the concept of a transmitted communication. It is cognate with similar terms in other languages, such as French message and Italian messaggio, and Albanian has adopted and adapted the term to fit its own morphology and usage.
