RESEARCH ON THE USE OF NON-INFLECTIVE FORMS OF THE VERB BY THE STUDENTS OF GJAKOVA

Abstract

We know that the Albanian language has simple forms of the verb, such as: participle, transitive, past participle, negative, which are then divided into two groups. What piqued our interest about the non-elaborated forms, are the syntactic functional forms of the use of the infinitive in particular (among others), in the essays of students at the Faculty of Education in Gjakova.If we look and analyze the first documents written in Albanian, it is noticeable that the infinitive was very commonly used, even when looking at its phonetic and morphological aspect. Therefore, this formal structure of the infinitive is quite disputable considering its antiquity in our language. In addition to the infinitive, we also have the participle, to which the auxiliary verbs “be” and “have” have been added, we also see that in the essays of our students the syncope is used in most of their writings, without overlooking the apocope. We also have the conjunctive, which shows an action that accompanies or follows the action shown by using another verb, which is also quite utilized in our students' essays. As well as the negative infinitive form, which is formed by placing the word with a negative meaning –pa, before the participle of the verb, which can also be expressed with the negative participle -nuk or -s'. We will present all of this in our research, where we will then show the changes that the formal structure has undergone, be it phonetic, morphological or syntactic, which leaves a lot of room to discuss their linguistic antiquity.
