Translation of ishte: 4 Translations and Examples for It Was in Albanian

I’ve been working on learning Albanian and I wanted to explore how different AI models perform when translating and providing contextual examples for key words. For this experiment, I’ve compared the translations from four large language models (LLMs): GPT4o Mini, Gemini Flash1.5, DeepSeek v3, and Llama 3.3, along with a quick reference from Google Translate. These all use the same prompt.

Please note, these translations and examples were generated by AI models, and we haven’t fact-checked them—they’re for entertainment and educational purposes. If you notice errors or have better suggestions, feel free to reach out.

Why Compare AI Models?

Each AI model approaches translations differently based on how they’re trained and the datasets they’ve been exposed to. Comparing their outputs not only helps with learning a language but also highlights the capabilities and limitations of modern AI tools. Consider this a different type of leaderboard, but for translations. If you’re interested in working on an Albanian-specific LLM, please let me know.

Disclaimer: These translations are not perfect, and while they’re fascinating to explore, they should be taken with a grain of salt. If you’re fluent in Albanian or have insights, we’d love to hear from you—help us learn together!
