Albanian term or phrase: Fond
Kam një kopi nga një arkiv shtetëror vendor me notat e një nxënësi nga Peshkopia. Në fund thuhet: "Origjinali ruhet në A.SH.V Dibër F. 87 V. 1998 D. 53 fl. 125". Në internet kam gjetur shpjegimi, F-ja do të thotë Fondi (të tjerët nuk janë vështirë - viti, dosja, fleta). Tani lind pyetja: si përkthyet fondi në anglisht dhe në këtë kontekst?

After some Googling I believe that "fund" is the correct word. But "collection" is also used, and it's the solution I chose, that's why I reward this answer (still waiting for an option to give points to more than one contribution). Thanks to all of you!

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
disagree  Oliver Qamili: I'm not sure "fonds" is an English word. I've seen the Law of Archives No 9154 date 06.11.2003 Article 2/6, and "Fondi arkivor kombëtar" in Albanian should definitely not be translated "National archival fond" in English, but "National archival fund".

Fascicle / Folder


Explanation:
Your grades' list is preserved in a big folder (fascicle). As there are quite many lists through the years, it is impossible to keep them all in one folder/fascicle, so there are many numbered folders/fascicles, each of them keeping a certain number of documents / grades' list.

Example sentence(s):
  • If you finished high school in June 1992, then your grades'list should be in the fascicle/folder of June 1992. Come back tomorrow and I'll have ot for you.

agree  Andi Progonati: I agree. I have dealt with such a word. And I think "fascicle" is the most appropriate one and quite understandable too.
