huall

== Albanian == === Alternative forms === huell — Gheg hoje === Etymology === Two possible etymologies: from Proto-Albanian *xāljā, from earlier *ksān and suffix -jā, from pre-Albanian *s-keh₂n, metathesis of Proto-Indo-European *kh₂en, oblique of *kóh₂r̥ (“wax”) (compare Greek κηρός (kirós), Lithuanian korỹs (“id”)). The change of *n to l is irregular. from Proto-Albanian *skāla, further related to hollë (see there for more), although admittedly very difficult to reconcile semantically. === Noun === huall m (plural hoje, definite hualli, definite plural hojet) honeycomb Synonym: felë Coordinate terms: krodhë, qengjë ==== Declension ==== === References === === Further reading === FGJSSH: Fjalor i gjuhës së sotme shqipe [Dictionary of the modern Albanian language]‎[1], 1980 “huall”, in FGJSH: Fjalor i gjuhës shqipe [Dictionary of the Albanian language] (in Albanian), 2006 Newmark, Leonard (1999), “huall”, in Oxford Albanian-English Dictionary‎[2]
