Albanian family relationships within the context of Albanian proverbs

Summary/Abstract: This study presents the analysis of the socio-cultural perspective of relationships within family members based on Albanian proverbs and idioms. Proverbs carry forward philosophical and ethical perspectives of a society, as well as enriching the thoughts and notions of the people. Therefore, they are one of the greatest assets of popular wisdom.Methodologically, the corpus of Albanian proverbs along with their structural analysis is done in order to present a complete sociolinguistic overview. As a result, the selected proverbs are examined in terms of interpersonal relationships of every single family member with each other. In addition, synonymous loan words used in different Albanian territories are classified and analysed to demonstrate whether they contain any Turkish expressions. Consequently, the frequency distribution of Turkish loan words in different Albanian territories are presented.This paper intends to address family member relationships that are reflected in proverbs as well as using Turkish expressions within them. It might also be useful for researchers who deal with sociolinguistics and lexicology.
