The necessity for a such magazine came due to difficulties that the linguistic situation in Kosovo, North Macedonia, and other Albanian inhabited areas inside Yugoslavia.

The Albanological Institute in Prishtina called a symposium to deal with the Albanian language issues raised so far, in December 1980.

The editorial staff has always solicited collaborators outside of former Yugoslavian republics, in Albania, in Arbereshe communities, and elsewhere, being a major characteristic of the magazine.

This because of the same standard and literary issues that the Albanian language faced and still does in general, and the editorial's goal of keeping the newspaper open to all and not local.

[2] The frequency of the newspaper has varied in time due to political situation that the Albanological Institute encountered from 1982 till today.
