Original sentence: Arvanites have referred to their place of origin as Arvanitiá in Greek and Arbëria in Arvanitic itself (today southern Albania and NW Greece).The "Albanian" (shqiptar) referred to in Albania in the Albanian language is not a self-designation of Arvanites and Arbëresh, and has connotations with the Ottoman and 20th Century Albanian heritage which is alien to Arvanites.The term "shqiptar" was never taken on by the Arvanites and subsequent Arbëresh because post-Skanderbeg history is not shared with Arvanites and other Albanians.They are the ancestors of the Arbëresh community of Italy and Sicily.This is in particular reference to the Albanian term "Shqiptar" which has been used in Albania since the time of Skanderbeg in reference to the Albanian people
