Albanians: Encyclopedia II - Voiced dental fricative - In English

The voiced dental fricative occurs in English, and it is the sound denoted by the 'th' digraph in this and the. It is different from the sound represented by 'th' in thing and bath, which is the voiceless dental fricative. In Old English, the letters þ and ð were used interchangeably for this sound and the voiceless dental fricative, but they have been dropped from modern usage in favour of the 'th' digraph. Although the same digraph is used for the voiced and voiceless forms, these sounds are not interchangeable in spoken ...

Albanians: Encyclopedia II - Kosovo Liberation Army - History

Kosovo Liberation Army - Emergence of the KLA 1992-1996. The name "Kosovo Liberation Army" first came to light in the Republic of Macedonia in 1992, used by ethnic Albanian radicals, who sought autonomy or independence from that country. In 1995, isolated attacks on Serbian police were carried out by unnamed parties, though it was not until February 1996 that the name "Kosovo Liberation Army" was used for the first time following a series of attacks against police st ...

Albanians: Encyclopedia II - Zog of Albania - Life in exile

Immediately after his deposition, Zog moved temporarily to Egypt, where he became a friend to King Farouk. He then began life in exile as a jet setter in various countries.

Albanians: Encyclopedia II - Thracian language - Sources

As an extinct language that has no literature left, there's little known about it, but some Thracian words can be found cited in ancient texts [1]. In addition there are many probable words extracted from names, toponyms, and names of rivers mentioned in ancient sources. A number of possible Thracian words are found in inscriptions (most of them written with Greek script) on buildings, coins, and other artifacts. Only four Thracian insciptions have been found. One is a gold ring found in 1912 in the town of Ezerovo, Bulgaria. The ring ...

Albanians: Encyclopedia II - Thracian language - Classification

There are enough Thracian examples with characteristic Satem sound-shifts to include Thracian in the Satem group of Indo-European languages. Thracian is often considered to have been on the same language branch as the extinct Dacian language (viewed as a northern dialect of Thracian), though some Thracologists think Dacian may have been on a separate branch. Some scholars see a relation between Thracian and the ancient Macedonian language, or the Phrygian language. Older models often linked Thracian to the Illyrian language, or to the Armenian language, but re ...

Albanians: Encyclopedia II - Thracian language - Vocabulary

The most reliable Thracian words are the words which have been explicitly cited and described as Thracian by the ancient authors. There are not many such cited words. Elements appearing in typical Thracian two-component geographical names (for example, Poltymbria) are another source for the reconstructed vocabulary. The Thracian vocabulary includes as well many more words whose meanings are conjectured, speculative, or disputed. Indeed, their status as actual words (as opposed to parts of words) is speculative in many cases. Most of t ...

Albanians: Encyclopedia II - Music of Albania - Popular music

The city of Shkodër has long been the cultural capital of Albania, and its music is considered the most sophisticated in the country.

Albanians: Encyclopedia II - History of Communist Albania - Deteriorating relations with the west

Albania's relations with the West soured after the communist regime's refusal to allow free elections in December 1945. Albania restricted the movements of United States and British personnel in the country, charging that they had instigated anticommunist uprisings in the northern mountains. Britain announced in April that it would not send a diplomatic mission to Tiranë; the United States withdrew its mission in November; and both the United States and Britain opposed admitting Albania to the United Nations (UN). The Albanian regime feared ...

Albanians: Encyclopedia II - History of Communist Albania - The cultural and ideological revolution

In the mid-1960s, Albania's leaders grew wary of a threat to their power by a burgeoning bureaucracy. Party discipline had eroded. People complained about malfeasance, inflation, and low-quality goods. Writers strayed from the orthodoxy of socialist realism, which demanded that art and literature serve as instruments of government and party policy. As a result, after Mao Zedong unleashed the Cultural Revolution in China in 1966, Hoxha launched his own Cultural and Ideological Revolution. The Albanian leader concentrated on reforming the mili ...

Albanians: Encyclopedia II - Albanians - Albanian Nationalism

Both Kosovo (a Serbian province though governed since June 1999 by UNMIK, backed by KFOR, a NATO-led international force) and western Macedonia have in recent years seen armed movements (Kosovo Liberation Army, UCPMB, Macedonian NLA) aiming either for independence, greater autonomy, or increased human and political rights. The fate of Kosovo remains uncertain owing to the reluctance of the Albanian majority to contemplate a restoration of Serbian sovereignty and of the United Nations and NATO to separate the territory definitively fro ...
