Translation Link Sep 13, 2014:
Larserik, this is a run-on sentence, which is not written in a grammatically correct way in Albanian...which leads to your confusion...
larserik (asker) Sep 12, 2014:
No problem Suddenly I understand. In this context the meaning will be: There are two good things. The verb "ka" was confusing.
larserik (asker) Sep 12, 2014:
Problem There is nothing in the context that appears as a pair, so I don't understand why the author has used the phrase të dyja. I was hoping that it was a fixed expression, with a more general meaning, not a matter of counting.
