Albanian term

shprehi

Albanian to English Social Sciences Education / Pedagogy university course
I have "shprehi të foluri" and "shprehi të shkruari" in a pasqyre notash from the university of Tirana, fakulteti i gjuhëve të huaj. I imagine that "shprehi" should be "shprehje" (and I expected a "t" at the end of both).

What's your opinion? How would you translate them?

Discussion

MSc Jonis Buzi Jan 31, 2018:
Yes They say 'specifika' but it could mean either the term you are suggesting or 'characteristics'.
larserik (asker) Jan 31, 2018:
Another possibility Perhaps "specific features" is the correct translation, or "specificities"

But I think it probably refers more to 'written/oral expression' since it pertains to the ability to write or speak rather than the skill to do so.
