It's possible that the PIE form * steribhuxwos 'being barren, barren
being' > Greek and Albanian (see
http://tech. groups.yahoo. com/group/ cybalist/ message/48213 ). Though I
don't know how unstressed e before i would behave or what order the
rules of V-deletion, etc., would need to occur in Albanian, I'd prefer
* steribhuxwos > * steribwas > *sterpwas or something similar rather
than * sto:rbh- with no other evidence than Alb e.
