nënshkimin

Nënshkimin is the Albanian noun form referring to the act of signing a document or to the signature itself. It is used in legal, administrative, and formal contexts to denote the moment or result of affixing a signature, as in the signing of an agreement or treaty.

The term derives from the verb nënshkruaj, meaning to sign or to sign under, with the noun nënshkimi or nënshkimin representing the act or the signature in its definite form. In everyday use, nënshkimin can be found in phrases such as “nënshkimin e marrëveshjes” (the signing of the agreement) or “nënshkimin e dokumentit” (the signature of the document). It can also appear in legal drafting and official records as a label for documents that have been signed.

In Albanian, related terms include nënshkrim (signature) and nënshkues (signatory), which refer to the physical signature itself and to the person who signs, respectively. The word is common across Albanian-speaking communities, including Albania and Kosovo, and appears in both contemporary and historical legal materials, contracts, and government documents.

Overall, nënshkimin is a standard, neutral term used to describe the act or result of signing, essential in contexts where authentication, consent, or formal agreement is recorded and validated through a signature.
