I doubt that <bashkë> 'together' and Albanian bashkë 'fleece'
are 'very different' knowing that 'fleece' has as secondary
meaning 'bundle' (see Aromanian word etc...)

But even with different 'sources', *plous-keH is not possible
because sk/intervocalic > ks > h in Albanian, as Piotr said too (but
he has generalized too much this rule)

As result, the only possible source of an inherited Albanian shk is
PAlb *Csk (most probable PAlb *ksk )
