Summary/Abstract: Skrapar is a mountainous region that is located about 50 km southeast of Berat and bordered by the East with Oparin and Vithkuq of Korca, from the North with Gramsh of Elbasan, from the West with Nahije of Berat, South West with Këlcyra and the Dangëllinë of Përmet.Skrapar’s variety belongs to the group of North Tosk Albanian varieties. It has become object of study for the first time by prof. Jorgji Gjinari in the article with the same title, published nearly 60 years ago, in which he intends to give, as he writes in its introduction "a view of Skrapar's variety". Whereas our paper intends to give a fuller profile of Skrapar's variety based on the data provided by the Albanian Dialectal Atlas (further ADGJSH), cosidering the place that occupies this language variety in the phonetic, lexical and grammaical isoglosses of this important work of Albanian linguistics.
