First, I think that clusters -*k't-, -*kWt- and -*kt- have been
assimilated in -*tt-, -*tt- and -*tt- to ende later in simple /t/
(cf. Italian <notte> 'night' from Lat. nox, -tis).
Albanian demonstrative pronouns, as we have once discussed in
Cybalist, are compound form of PIE *au- + *so > ai 'he', *ko(m) + *so
> kuj > ky 'this', *au- + saH2 > ajo 'she' and *ko(m) + saH2 > kujo >
këjo > kjo 'this' and *au- + to > atë 'that' and *kom- + to > kutë >
këtë 'this'. Plural forms are derived from *au-taH2 > ato 'those',
masculine form *au-+*to > ata 'those' and *kom- + taH2 > kuto > këto
etc., due to *s > j, *aH2 > *a: > o etc.
