Tosk and Geg in the Spoken Albanian of Struga
Tosk and Geg in the Spoken Albanian of Struga

Summary/Abstract: It is very surprising that from all the places inhabited by Albanians, it is only in Struga that both Gegs and Tosks live divided by the River Drini i Zi. Struga is situated in the southwest part of Macedonia. It is situated by the Lake Ohrid coast and the River Drini i Zi coast. Based on the dialectology map, the Albanian spoken language in Struga is something between Centre Gegerisht and North Toskerisht. The object of this paper is to present just some more characteristic distinctions between the Tosk and Geg spoken languages, functioning side by side in the same town. Generally, this shortened dialectical reflection encompasses some phonetical, morphological and lexical segments of the spoken languages of Struga.
