ASPECTS OF INNER FORM IN ALBANIAN LANGUAGE LEXICON
ASPECTS OF INNER FORM IN ALBANIAN LANGUAGE LEXICON

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to demonstrate that the inner form of the language which serves as a means of expressing the psychic content of it, is the most concrete and evident demonstration of the particular features and special characteristics a language possesses especially in terms of dialectical lexicon and phraseology as it transmits and conveys the national spirit, point of views and general outlook. Humboldt’s theory appeared of great interest and provided us a lot of evidence to fully justify the fact that during the process of shaping and structurally formalizing the basic sound patterns of different languages, people have dissolved their spirit, their mentality, their way of thinking and understanding. Exploiting the principle of inner form we became aware of the fact that the signifying words used or the selection of different linguistic elements to nominate one and the same objective reality’s component was not at all neither identical nor similar and this data gave us the immense possibility to advance arguments that a native language speakers perceive, understand, interpret and shape the real world in different distinct, original ways and that the devices people choose to cut up their reality apparently differ a lot from languages to languages.
