In the new semester, Harvard University has also introduced the teaching of the Albanian language. The Harvard Magazine writes that it was a student, whose parents \u00a0from Montenegro, that became the reason for the introduction of the Albanian program in one of the most prestigious universities. Edona Cosovic, who grew up in the US, learned to speak Albanian at home while communicating with her family. But the lack of Albanian channels in the foreign country would bring difficulties for the second year student.<\/p>\n
“We are in school all day, we watch TV in English, everything is in English, and my parents are also trying to learn the English language because they work here and they are also trying to make money, so we lose the contact with language very quickly, within a generation”, said Cosovic.<\/p>\n
In March 2022, she asked about the possibility of creating a course.<\/p>\n
The Albanian language has a long educational heritage in the United States. Driven by the early waves of Albanian immigrants. Columbia University taught it intermittently from 1932 to the 1960s. Widely considered among the most difficult languages \u200b\u200bto learn, Albanian is taught only at a select few American institutions, including Arizona State University, DePaul University, and the College Mercy in Dobbs Ferry, New York.<\/p>\n
