Bekim Bejta (born 11 June 1970 in Kosovo - Mitrovica ) is a Kosovar Albanian lexicologist, morphologist, syntactician, semanticist, poet, literateur, and translator. In 2009, he received the Kosovo National Literary Prize for the translation of Raga. Approche du continent invisible by Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio. Anecdotally, he holds several pushups world records. His last records are 5471 two handed pushups in one hour and 3086 one handed pushups in one hour. Moreover, in 2009, in Huelva, Spain, he won the gold medal in the Karate-Kickbox category of WKA's world championship.

Studies

He studied at the University of Poitiers, where he obtained a bachelor's degree in 1994, a master's degree in 1996 and a PhD with a dissertation on "Morpho-Phonological Assimilation of French non-Naturalized Borrowings in English and its Lexicographical Treatment" in 2002.

Contributions to linguistics

Bejta’s initial speciality is linguistics. He started with publishing The Solution to English Word-Stress (2003). The counterpart of this book in French is his work L’Accentuation en anglais(2003). In 2007, he published, in Albanian, the work Gjuha dhe të folurit (Language and Speech). Then, two linguistic books of his were published in Pristina, Analyse phonologique des emprunts en anglais, (2009), and Naturalisation morpho-sémantique des xénismes an anglais (2009). More recently he has published two other books - namely, "English Orthoepy" and "Adyghe Phonemics", both of which were published in Paris.

Translations

He undertook the task of translating novels, poems, and short story collections because of the lack of good translations in Albanian. Since then, he has translated a dozen books from English and French. His most notable translation is that of Shakespeare's tragedy "Hamlet".
