accepting *a-ja: one gets in trouble with the masculine since there is
an "l" ,
see "�la".
as for Rom. "asta", Alb. "ato" it appears hard to believe there is no
connection with Latin "iste" , Umbric "esto" etc., where "*to"= "der da,
he there" and "*es/*is", thus I don't think there is any "*a-k'jo-*tom
(Acc. of *to)" but an *es-tom/*es-ta
