Thanks, Piotr, for this information.
But my question : " What are the forms of 'two' that contained an -
ih1?" was more rethoric than really a question trying to show you
that we are obliged to choose for Albanian dy the forms containing
the -ih1 (...but thanks anyway).

My real question is:
"Do you know another source of y but the iu(u:) or ui?"

If yes, please post a reliable example (not related to dy),
because the key of this derivation is here...
