Language is a very central element in human life. It helps both the realization of communication and the shaping of thought and its transmission. For this reason, a correct and best use of language helps us both in the process of recognition and in the very presentation of our personality. This course aims to equip students with a correct and as complete as possible use of Albanian, to improve their skills in speaking and writing Albanian, but also to help them build a fluent and creative discourse.

- The order of the parts in the sentence. The order of the determinants of a name. A. Adjective + adjective; B. Adjective + linear numeral or pronoun; C. Adjective + noun; D. Noun + noun. This chapter, V, draws inspiration from the quote-order by Nobert Jokli, who advises to save the spirit of the Albanian language from any bastardization, because unnecessary foreign words are being introduced into the discourse. Memushaj, Rami. (2002) Standard Albanian, How to Speak and Write Toena, Tirana: 99-100.

- Adaptation of parts in sentences Order, adaptation of the predicate to the subject in number,, in itself; matching determiners with name, gender, number. Albanian constructions instead of foreign constructions. If the subject is a collective noun, the predicate is usually put in the singular: The whole village was uprooted to see the bad omen. When the subject consists of several pronouns of different persons, singular or plural, the verb is put in the plural. There is adaptation in itself, mainly the subject. Determiners fit in gender, in number. Memushaj, Rami. (2002) Standard Albanian, How to speak and write Toena, Tirana: 103-105.

- Adaptation of tenses in the subjunctive period Adaptation depends on the type of sentences, but also on the semantics (meaning) of the verb itself; it will stay in case of wrong fit. The rules for adapting verb tenses are numerous: they depend on the type of sentences, but also on the semantics of the verb tenses themselves. In the subjunctive tense, the imperative, the present tense, the perfect tense and the future tense are associated with each other. Here there are cases when the spoken discourse alternates with the written one. Memushaj, Rami. (2002) Standard Albanian, How to Speak and Write Toena, Tirana: 106-107.

- Cleanliness of the lexicon Taking care of the language reminds us of the message of the albanologist Norbert Jokl: "If for all languages the issue of the purity of the language is of great importance, for the Albanian language it is of vital importance." Unnecessary borrowings create a problem, when it is known that Albanian does not lack words of its own dough. But the lexical wealth should be recognized. Memushaj, Rami. (2002) Standard Albanian, How to speak and write Toena, Tirana:
