ABOUT SOME SYNONYMS IN ISLAMIC TERMINOLOGY IN ALBANIAN LANGUAGE

Summary/Abstract: Islamic terminology is filled with secondary and tertiary which have come into use during the historical development of the Albanian language. It is regarding some terms which have taken place and are used to refer to some Islamic notions which most of the time do not semantically correspond to the source term. Some religious terms that have entered from Latin and ancient Greek during the spread of Christianity are being used even for Islamic terminology thinking they are Albanianizing them. As far as Christian terminology is concerned, we think that they have taken place and entered its lexicon, while as far as Islam is concerned, it should be considered which terms can be Albanianized and which ones can be used as in the original, adapting to the grammatical nature of Albanian terminology as a specialized lexicon requires a term for a concept as well as in the case of Albanian not to depart from the original meaning. Therefore some Islamic terms can be Albanianized but most of them should be used both in the source language but in a religious sense.
