You can talk about PAlb only in sense of a few Altaic roots that
eventually still remained in modern Albanian language, compiled of
Greek, Latin and Serbian.
Unfortunately, such Turkic roots are so rare and so mutilated that you
must be a magician to recognize them.
On the other side, it is obvious that Albanian sound system
corresponds well to the Altaic (Turkic subfamily) phonetic chart!
If you claim that Vladim Orel is stuped, fool in that case I am
honored. Nothing better characterizes your nature.
To your view, Albanian is descendant of Altaic languages, [...]
Dušan's hypothesis that Albanian is a mix of Serbian, Greek and Latin
loans adapted to Turkic phonology seems to imply the existence before
the Roman invasion of a dominant, Turkic-speaking indigenous population
on south Balkan, speaking a language gradually becoming Albanian as it
(she?) adopted words and grammatical features from the languages of the
successive conquerors. This certainly is a new take on the history of
South-East Europe and what I was told was centuries of Turkic expansion.
The information is even more credible as it comes from a Serb
nationalist. To what century does he date the Slavic invasion?

According to his view, Slavic tribes are autochthonous, till Albanians
and Romanians are newcomers.
Regarding the Serbian language, especially by many prominent Croatian
linguists, we may freely say that it is a creole language, but,
despite the fact that I know that Serbian is full with Turkish,
Albanian, Greek, Dalmatian, Romanian and German loans (Turkish loans
dated from Avars time with whom they make a confederation to fight
against Byzantium), because I haven't make any further research on
this language (to see the proportion of inherited and loaned words),
that I know like my mother tongue, Albanian, I am afraid to claim and
back up such view.
