CLOUD

Non-PRO English to Albanian Art/Literary Poetry & Literature Literature
CLOUD

As in “cloud in the sky”, and also as in e.g. “cloud of dust” if a different word is used, please.

Thank you.

PS Do you ever use the word figuratively, e.g. perhaps, “There are no clouds in his skies” or something, to mean that he has an untroubled life?

Sometimes we use \"shtëllungë tymi\" to refer to \"cloud of dust\" or \"cloud of smoke\". \"Tym\"--dust, smoke

We use \"është bërë tym\", \"është vrenjtur\" to mean \"he/she is angry or upset\" but I don\'t know any expression with \"clouds\"

Peer comment(s):

agree Eva T : Totally agree with you. We do not use the word "re" as in the above expression. I also like Vjollca's expression of "shtëllungë tymi" when refering to a "cloud of dust".
