1)Albanian won't have "ku-" if there should have been a form like
"cos:inu-"
for having "ku-" there should be necesary the form widh "con-".
2) The "r" should be seen as the result of the rothacism of "n", but
wherefrom the final "i"?

Accepting there are explanation for this forms, which should be the
chronological order of the transformations?
