ISSUES OF MORPHOLOGICAL HOMONYMY IN THE VERBAL STRUCTURE OF THE ALBANIAN LANGUAGE

Abstract

Verbal structures, in general, in the Albanian language have followed the system, but there have also been interventions outside the system. Due to phonetic and analog interferences, this system has undergone constant changes. The changes have involved not only the system of endings, but often also the structure of their phonological representation. The phonological structure of many verbs in the course of time has been disorganized, in the view that during changes the representative forms have avoided the initial unified forms. The changes have affected, in the first place, verbs ending in consonants, such as: speak, shout, go out, bake, take etc. These have often brought consequences of opposite directions. Transitions from one state to another, or reversals to the previous state, have been evident. These transitions are observed not only in the representative form of verbs, but also in their typical changes means. Excluding the phenomenon of complementarity, thematic diversity within the same verb is a linguistic state obtained as a result of many phonetic or analogical developments. A change conditioned by the phonetic rule has over time taken on a morphological grammatical function. Morphological value in many cases have received phonological additions, unnecessarily supporting the system of typical changes. Changes in the subject structure of these verbs, when the grammatical means of expression are clear and obvious, are neutral to the grammatical meanings.
