The magazine was first proposed in February 1979 by Eqrem Çabej during the work sessions of the Academy of Sciences in Tirana. It was followed by a legal act (act-decision) of the Albanian Council of Ministers, demanding permanent and extensive research on the standard and literary language; one of the topics mentioned was the creation of a scientific magazine on that purpose.[1] The magazine started in 1981, published by the Academy of Sciences of Albania. A homologue one started in 1982 in Pristina, Kosovo, named Gjuha Shqipe (Albanian Language), targeting the same topics. It was published by the Albanological Institute of Pristina.[1]
In 2008, the Institute of Linguistics and Literature (Albanian: Instituti i Gjuhës dhe Letërsisë) split with the Albanian Academy of Sciences and joined the Centre of Albanological Studies, carried over the magazine as well.[2]
Gjuha Jonë is published quarterly.[3]
