Bëhet fjalë për profesion që në një diplomë nga Kosova përmendet si "latues në ndërtimtari".

Ju faleminderit për sugjerimet tuaja dhe mundësisht për shpjegimin e këtij profesioni, punës që latuesi bën.

Stone worker
Explanation:
Përshëndetje Sherefedin, ata janë latuesit e gurëve, për punime në muraturë, që quhen stone workers, profesion ky që po zhduket në shumë vende. Në italisht i thonë pietraio ose lavoratori di pietra.

neutral  Fabiana Papastefani-Pezzoni: The entry corresponds to a different definition. The profession of working with the stone is Stonemasonry, but not the stone worker, which is the latues or gurgdhendes, which was what Sherefedin asked about. There are stoneworkers working in stonemasonry.
