Αfroditi (not Afrodita) means the one that is emerging from the foam/sea.
The etymology of Aphroditi is explained in Theogonia by Hesiod. In 700BC.
This is - 2700 years ago.
PS: I don't care what it means to a language that is modern.
PS1: The planets got their names from Gods. How hard it is for you to understand that?

Albanian is not esperanto my dear. Its a very old language squashed by latin. Our language has the farthest reach amongst all IE languages. Showing ancient connections with Armenian to Germanic and Baltic languages. Albanian language is a subject in itself for linguists and no one studying linguistics is unfamiliar with it. So chill... its not a modern language, its a language mostly destroyed by latin.
Secondly... the age of the source does not give it any credit for being truthful. Its quite the opposite.
Dont you think that its at least a bit curious why Afrodita means Phosphorous in my language? And that Venus was once called Phosphorous and not its albanian translation Afrodita? Do you think its pure coincidence?
Btw there is more words like this. Wanna hear them?

Can you confirm how old this etymology of Albanian language?
How come? So, the etymology of Hesiod for the word Afroditi is not truthful but the online etymology by an Albanian in a forum is ?Secondly... the age of the source does not give it any credit for being truthful. Its quite the opposite.
No, I don't .Dont you think that its at least a bit curious why Afrodita means Phosphorous in my language? And that Venus was once called Phosphorous and not its albanian translation Aphrodita? Do you think its pure coincidence?
1) Because both Afrodite and Venus etymology can be traced waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back. While the ''Afrodita'' can't.
2) You have to discredit the fact that planets got their names from Gods.
3) What about Hesperus and Eosphoros?
