Its obvious, they're here from centuries

Arbëreshët (Shqiptarët e Italisë) janë një pakicë etnike dhe gjuhëtar shqiptarë historikisht në Itali, të cilët i jetojnë në jugore që nga shekulli XV dhe XVI.

Këta shqiptarë, quajtur arbëreshë sepse ata lanë Shqipërinë që quhej atëherë Arbëria, u vendosën në Itali në pesëmbëdhjetë dhe shekullin e tetëmbëdhjetë, pas vdekjes së heroit kombëtar shqiptarë Gjergj Kastrioti Skënderbeu dhe pushtimit gradual të Shqipërisë dhe të gjithë të Perandorisë Bizantine nga turqit osmane. Njihen shtatë eksode të mëdha që nisin që nga koha për një herë pas vdekjes se Gjergj Kastriotit, deri nga fundi i shek. XVIII (1780-1790), janë ngulimet e fundit të shqiptarëve në Italinë Veriore, si provincën e Pavias dhe të Piacencës, po ashtu një grup i madh i'u drejtua krahinës qendrorë në Molise dhe një tjetër grup në drejtim të krahinës jugore Bazilikatës.

Arberesh dialect evolved differently from the one we are used to because it was isolated from us otherz, so it sounds like it should.

Considering she knows any Albanian is impressive. Arberesh have been living in Italy for 500+ years There are some 1st generation Albanians living in the West that can't speak a word of Albanian.
