However, in the Albanian language 'Kosovar' is often used for ethnic Albanians of Kosovo.[1][need quotation to verify] While the majority of Kosovars are ethnic Albanians (92%), the country is home to other ethnic communities as well, including Serbs, Bosniaks, and others. Kosovar citizenship can be acquired through birth, naturalization, or other legal processes.[2][3]
