tokësoret

Tokësoret is an Albanian term derived from tokë, meaning Earth. The base adjective tokësor denotes terrestrial or earthly, and tokësoret can be used as a plural noun to mean “the terrestrials” or “earth-bound beings.” While the adjective is common in everyday Albanian, the noun form tokësoret appears mainly in specialized contexts such as science fiction, philosophy, or literary discourse, where speakers distinguish beings connected to Earth from others described as celestial or extraterrestrial.

In usage, tokësoret can refer to inhabitants of the Earth, Earth-based life forms, or metaphorically to concerns and perspectives rooted in the physical world. It is often contrasted with terms used for non-Earth or non-material beings in speculative fiction or conceptual discussion. The word formation reflects Albanian morphology, with -ësor forming adjectives and the noun usage arising from context rather than everyday speech.
