Summary/Abstract: David Luka is one of the most important scholars in the field of Albanian language history. His name has entered in the historical linguistics, as a multidimensional linguist, one of the greatest of this century. He has worked in many fields, such as: historical grammar, etymology of Albanian language, lexicology, standard language, historical phonetics etc.The work of German linguists, respectively Austrian, linguists is present in all the scientific work of David Luka. The Albanological studies of German albanologists continue to make up today the most important part of this science closely related to our ethno-genesis. German science has paid attention to the history of our language, the prehistoric and the historical period, the internal and the external history of Albanian and the written history of Albanian language within the framework of the Indo-European languages.The study of Albanian language was carried out by a large number of personalities dealing with important issues such as the origin of Albanian, the historical composition of its lexicon, relations with other Indo- European languages and historical contacts with Balkan languages and other languages, source and the history of some elements of the grammatical structure and a range of other study topics as: Gustav Mayer, Johann Georg von Hahn, Leiniz, Jokl etc.We inherit a very wealthy study fund from them, it was represented mainly by specialists in other language disciplines, who were partially or completely taken part in the study of Albanian language, customs and doctrines of Albanians. German albanologs helped to study lexicography, lexicology, etymology, phonetics, phonology, word formation, dialectology of Albanian language, and so on in a diacronic and synchronous plan.
