skandali

Skandali is a term used in Albanian and Turkish to express the concept of a scandal. In Albanian, skandali means "the scandal" and is formed from the base noun skandal plus the definite suffix -i. It is used to refer to a specific controversy, often in political, financial, or social contexts, and appears frequently in news reporting and public discourse.

In Albanian usage, skandali can describe well-known or ongoing cases, such as political scandals, corruption allegations, or other public embarrassments. The word functions as a standard noun and is typically found in articles, discussions, and headlines when a particular scandal is being referenced.

Turkish also uses a form of the word borrowed from European languages. The form skandali can appear in Turkish texts as the definite form meaning "the scandal," especially in sentences or headlines where the scandal is assumed to be known by the reader. Turkish media may employ this form in coverage of public accusations, investigations, or widely publicized disputes.

Both languages employ the word as a common noun rather than a proper name. The spelling skandali is generally a lowercase term in running text, though capitalization may occur in titles or on stylized media pages. The term functions as a generic label for notable controversies rather than pointing to a single, universal event.
