1. Objective

By the end, you will identify and explain how “Pronouncing y” works in new examples.

2. Discover

Read these forms slowly: dy, sy, yll, pyll. What recurs in each example?

3. Understand

This lesson isolates y in real Albanian words. Read the whole word, then identify the exact letter or group being practised: pronunciation and spelling should stay connected.
