disagree  Klementina Shahini: "Konvertor" is another translation for "converter" but in el. field we say "konvertitor"
2 hrs

neutral  Fabiana Papastefani-Pezzoni: Ela, your second choice in fact, in my opinion is the one. Now, there are konvertues, which are used slightly diffrerently then transformatorët, Silke should explain some more. See: http://www.nehemia-al.org/uploads/media/Koncepti_i_energjise...

disagree  Ahmet Murati: konvertor mund të përdoret për konvertuesin e rrymën nga ajo direkte në alternative apo anasjelltas, fjala transformator e transformon tensionin e rrymën nga një nivel i tensionit në një tjetër

disagree  Elvana Moore: I cannot find references in Eng-Alb dictionaries or the web to accept the term "konvertitor".
1 hr
  -> English Albanian Dictionary, Pavli Qesku,2002,page 358. I hope this will help.

disagree  Fabiana Papastefani-Pezzoni: I refer to your answer and to your peer comment: No, we do not say konvertitor, but sometimes they say konvertues, in case using this at all. It is interesting that after an hour you use almost same term to which then you disagree! Any support info, pls?
3 hrs
  -> Konvertitor is the right word used in el. field. If you check the dictionaries(politeknik) and English Albanian you will find it there. Also my husband is an electrician and he knows the term from his experience.

disagree  Becuci: !!!
8 hrs
  -> Any reason?

agree  Gentiana Kasemi: Sipas fjalorit politeknik.
5 days
  -> Thank you

disagree  Eva T: Fjala "konvertitor" nuk ekziston aspak në gjuhën shqipe. "Konvertitor" is not an Albanian word and does not exist whatsoever. No Albanian speaker will understand this word.

  -> Thank you Elvana!

agree  Fabiana Papastefani-Pezzoni: Bëhet fjale sigurisht për transformastorin e rrymës/tensionit.

  -> Faleminderit!

agree  Ledja: Pa dyshim kjo është më e sakta. TRANSFORMATOR m. sh. Aparat që shërben për të ngritur a për të ulur tensionin e rrymës elektrike ose për ta matur atë. Transformator rritës (zbritës). Transformator matës.
