All, right, here's the gist of the matter. Hamp finds Huld's
etymology (from *smiah2) implausible, and in general rejects the
reconstruction of Common Albanian *një/*nji, which, as he argues, is
based on incomplete evidence (uninflected, originally unstressed
forms). He himself takes into consideration a great amount of
dialectal material (including inflected forms, such as Dushmani njâni
(m.) and njâna (f.), and concludes that the type <një> represents a
development of unstressed *njâ < *njân < *nje:n < *(V)ni-ain- < *eni
+ *oino-, analogous to Slavic *ed-inU (i.e. deictic + numeral).
According to Hamp, a parallel formation can be seen in Geg tân, Tosk
tërë < *tod + *oino-. The type <nji> is either a by-form of <një>
with vowel colouring due to the initial palatal, or (perhaps) a
reflex of deictic *eni- without the accompanying *oino-.
