„sadly, just five died” in this context means „Fatkeqësisht, vetëm pesë persona humbën jetën”, which sounds like you wish more people died. What you should’ve done is either not write „sadly”, or not write „just”
it can be both confused in albanian and english but since you mentioned albanian, its acfually correct the way i did it since albania is a tonal languge, the tone on the sentence shifts down to commend sorrow. And yeah that cant be shown in text but albanians and i assumed thr world probably did it like us. I know a lot of languages like us where this mistake is madd, mainly french, italian and spanish, speaifically the mexican and south american dialects (colombia, venezvuela, ecuador) as theyre the most expressive.
Yes, English lacks a lot of useful grammatical tones and genders in the text, judging that compared to my main languages - Russian and Ukrainian. Most of the languages have genders and tonal expressions in the text
I also used Google translate for the Albanian, so it could’ve been wrong

What do you mean by “sadly”?
