Explanation: The word "Figurë" has a variety of meanings, but when it comes to the visual aspect, it is pretty universal. In the context will imply collectively all kinds of visual displays on a page, be it pictures, photos, diagrams, drawings etc. This same word is used for "picture books" (libra me figura), and even, for example, on a TV screen when "the picture is not clear" - "figura nuk është e qartë".
Here is the relevant meaning from the Albanian dictionary:
- Vizatim, skicë etj. në një tekst mësimor a në një libër; ilustrim. Libër (tregim) me figura.
