The Tosk language is a dialect of the Albanian language, primarily spoken in the southern regions of Albania. It is one of the two main dialects of Albanian, the other being Gheg. Tosk is characterized by its unique phonetic and grammatical features, which distinguish it from Gheg. Tosk serves as the basis for the standard form of the Albanian language, which was established in the 20th century. The dialect is used in various forms of media and education, contributing to the cultural identity of the Albanian people. It plays a significant role in preserving the linguistic heritage of the region.
