ON SOME TERMS OF GENERAL LINGUISTICS IN RELATION TO ALBANIAN LINGUISTICS

Flamur SHALA

Abstract

his paper deals with some terms that name linguistic phenomena and their interpretations, not included in the texts that deal with linguistic phenomena for Albanian, without being limited within the punctuation marks of the sentence. The theoretical treatment of linguistic, grammatical, sociolinguistic, generativist phenomena and especially of the grammar of the Albanian language text, as a relatively new field of Albanian linguistics, requires as much knowledge of the study methodology as a set of scientific methods, as much as of the terminology that marks and specifies the phenomena according to the fields of linguistics. Phonetics, lexicology and traditional grammar of the Albanian language do not include the treatment of some linguistic phenomena, according to new theories of linguistic system studies. Consequently they do not even include the terms for them. For the treatment of linguistic, grammatical phenomena in particular, it is necessary to go outside the traditional framework; the new treatments of general linguistics should be taken as a basis for the reinterpretation of certain linguistic phenomena of Albanian and the interpretation of terms that are not used in traditional linguistics for Albanian. The treatment of linguistic phenomena is not limited within punctuation marks, it goes beyond them. The linguistics of the text has opened new horizons. The treatment and reinterpretation of linguistic phenomena with contemporary terminology does not diminish the achievements of Albanian linguistics so far.
