Albanian to English translations [PRO]
Art/Literary - Poetry & Literature / Adem Demaçi
Albanian term or phrase: Dashuria Kuantike e Filanit
Hi fellows, I am a Bulgarian translator (I have no idea of Albanian) and in a text I am translating I have a short biographic note about Adem Demaçi including two of his books: Dashuria Kuantike e Filanit and Nëna Shegë e pesë gocat. In my translation the first one is rendered as Quantified Love but I am not sure how close it is to the original. Translated into Bulgarian this might give something very odd, so I will kindly ask you to give me a word-for-word translation of the title.

Quantum Love of Such and Such
Explanation:
The above version is word by word translation.
Kuantike - quantum
dashuri - love
filanit - such and such

If you replace the word quantum with one of the synonyms of this word you would get, Partial Love of Such and Such. Does this version make sense in Bulgarian?

Hopefully, it helps.

Здраво Екатерина,
Токму така, филан е турцизам и значи тој и тој, некојси... На македонски, на пример, се користи и изразот "Станко, Петко", со други зборови: било кој. Можеш слободно да ме контактираш ако ти треба било каква помош.

Пријатен викенд, Ш

Notes to answerer
Asker: Шерефедин, што е тоа филан човек? Барем на бугарски ништо не значи. Можете слободно да ми пишувате на македонски. А, сега видов дека филан е турски збор, ама каj нас не се користи. Значи, на некоjси?

Asker: Фала многу!
