Marr frymë (first person)
Explanation:
Marr frymë (first person, singular)
Merr frymë (second, third person, singular)
Marrim frymë (1st person, plural)
Merrni frymë (2nd person, plural)
Marrin frymë (3rd person, plural)
Breath is a verb and not a noun as translated in the above translation. However I need a bit more explanation regarding the art installation.

What do you mean by art installation? Is it talking about "a place with art" or is it actually talking about the installation, or the placing of new art?

\"Breath\" can also be translated as \"fryj, pëshpërit, shpreh\" etc.

I wanted to correct my spelling above: \"breathe\" is a verb, while \"breath\" is a noun.

Breath; breathe


Explanation:
Breath (n.)
Breathe (v.)
The Albanian translation of breathe(v.):
1.(respire)- marr frymë.
2.(inhale)-thith; mbush me ajër
3.(exhale) - hukat
4.(utter, express)(eg. Don't breathe a word of it to anyone)- them; bëzaj; ndihem (mos bëzaj)
5.(blow softly) - fryj
If the context is about a wind instrument, the translation would be "(i) fryj" (e.g. I fryj një vegle muzikore).
I hope this is of some help to you.
