përdorim

Përdorim is a noun in Albanian that denotes the act or result of using something. It corresponds to English words such as use, utilization, application, or consumption. The noun is derived from the verb përdor, meaning to use, and it is used across everyday language as well as technical or academic registers.

In everyday language, përdorim describes practical usage: for example, përdorimi i makinës refers to the use of the car. In technical, scientific, or legal texts it can denote utilization or consumption, as in përdorimi i energjisë (the consumption or use of energy). The term is generally neutral; related words such as shfrytëzim or eksploatim may carry nuanced senses of exploitation, efficient use, or resource management depending on context.

Morphology and grammar: In Albanian, përdorim forms include the definite singular përdorimi (the use) and the plural forms përdorimet (the uses) or uży used as appropriate in context. The indefinite plural form is përdorime. The noun combines with prepositional phrases to specify what is being used, as in përdorimi i teknologjisë or përdorimet e të dhënave.

Examples:

- Përdorimi i energjisë duhet të jetë i menaxhuar mirë. (Energy use/consumption should be well managed.)

- Përdorimi i të dhënave personale është rreptësisht i rregulluar nga ligji. (The use of personal data is strictly regulated by law.)
