Talk:Arbëresh language

Exonym of the language

It appears that the endonym of the language in Arbërisht, a name also used as an endonym for Arvanitika, and that Arberësh or Arbëreshë is the name of its speakers. What is the name most used in English, and what is the exonym used in Italy? Based on this information, a move to a name such as Arbërisht (Italy) should be considered.  Andreas  ^(T) 15:05, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Dialect vs Language

Someone is repeatedly editing this article to refer to arbresh as a dialect even though the title is Arberesh language. Linguistics of the 21st century do not impose the label of dialect on an endangered minority language. Is this vandalism and how can it be stopped? 2A00:23C8:728C:5C01:FD7C:896C:33D5:7732 (talk) 00:05, 29 June 2022 (UTC)

You are correct, and it seems the original change from language to dialect was made in 2021. It also seems that good-faith editors started reverting and re-reverting, and that is where the confusion comes from. The article is back to the original stable form now after your last edit.

ENDONYMS

It seems there is some confusion about the meaning of ENDONYM and NATIVE NAME, as some editors are typing "Albanian of Italy" in the native name field and "Albanians of Greece" or "Arvanitic Albanian" in endonym field, neither of which are correct. The correct native name for Arberisht is Arbërisht, and the correct endonym for Arvanites is Arvanites, and the language is Arvanitika. ARBERESHTV (talk) 15:14, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
