What does sound better to you Gheg or Tosk ?

[Cleitus]

Tosk sounds more professional and proper (Even though the proper Albanian is gheg), and gheg sounds more manly and older.

Thats probably becuase of the speakers voice

No, not because of that. As an Albanian I think i recognize these things.

Gheg! Especially Gheg from Shkodra Gjakova and prizreni

I like both, but Gheg is in my heart and there is nothing better for me then listening to the older folks speak it old school. Too bad today Gheg is losing it's originality due to the Standard, so in a way it's getting Toskified.

Here is a good video of Gheg from Central Kosova, the older fella is speaking what I like to call proper Gheg from this region. Start watching the interview from 1:22:

Ulqinak's have yet to be Toskified/standardized however

It's the same language btw just different dialects, I like how both sound.

Well watch the video I posted and listen to Rifat. We still speak the old school way but the new generation is loosing it because of the Standard.
