Any positive responses to the theory I read a while ago, that Latin noun
plurals were not from the pronouns, but relics of the dual? This is based
on the idea that the feminine equae is exactly the Sanskrit feminine dual
as've.
I think the whole thing is unlikely, for several reasons which I won't bore
you with.
