The majority of Romanian words (excluding relatively recent loans from
Slavic etc.) developed from PIE via Proto-Italic, Latin and Balkan
Romance; a minority come from PIE via stages identical with (or at least
very close to) pre- and Proto-Albanian. Until they were absorbed by
Balkan Romance, their history had been different and of course the
respective sound changes affecting them had been different too. However,
since the time they were borrowed into Proto-Romanian they have
undergone all the specifically Romanian changes, exactly the same that
have affected the inherited vocabulary of Vulgar Latin. I'm not sure if
I can make my meaning any clearer.
