    Wow, here comes again....

    I don't care about what you think of my language,actually. And if you don't like it, then good for you .

    But seems that the thread has been made, not to really hear opinions about what people think, but to ''answer back'' to those who don't like it .

    Mir pra ti bashkangjitem edhe une valles , I dont think that Gheg dialect is better sounding or Tosk is better sounding , these dudes in videos are using standardized Albanian language, which probably is more based in Tosk dialect but at all i like both.

    I don't know about grammar or anything. As being NOT familiar with any, they have very common sounds. that's all
    Tosk dialect does not have strong R, you should wash your ears

    There are 2 "R". The soft one is written R the strong one is written RR, like Rron.

    There is also difference between L and LL, like Salloniki

    My ears are perfectly clean, thanks.

    This is how it sounds to me. To everyone's ear, depending on his native language, everything sounds different.

    F.e, in a similar topic about Greek language,most people said that Greek sounds like Spanish , Italian, or even Slavic/Russian.

    Although is related to NONE, people find similarities (the ''th'' in spanish, or the R) and group them together.

    If you have your own opinion about your language, why bother asking other people? Seriously.
